About the Tombstone Super Project (TSP): <\/p>\n
The TSP initially consisted of 33 unpatented federal lode mining claims over a projected covered porphyry copper mineral center in Cochise County, Ariz. In September 2011, more Arizona State Prospecting Permits (MEPs the AZ state equivalent of mining claims) covering approximately eight square miles were added after Liberty Stars geochemical survey discovered a large multimetal anomaly over an interpreted large covered porphyry copper mineral center within the larger TSP area. In 2011, SRK Consulting prepared three NI 43-101 compliant technical reports over Liberty Stars holdings. Each report recommended further exploration on the area. An extensive geochemical survey sample campaign with samples assayed for 64 elements revealed the presence of copper, gold, silver, lead, moly, zinc and several rare earth elements. Mining throughout the region began in the late 19th century and led to the rise of legendary boomtown Tombstone, Ariz. Many of the old mining sites, and what is now Liberty Stars previously unprospected land, reside within or adjacent to a large volcanic and intrusive geologic feature known as a caldera. These caldera structures are present throughout southern Arizona, making the region one of the richest porphyry copper areas on the planet.
