What Liberty Gold does

Liberty Gold Corp. is a Canadian-domiciled, publicly traded (TSX:LGD, OTCQX:LGDTF) gold development company focused on a single flagship asset — the Black Pine Oxide Gold Project in southeastern Idaho. The company operates as an explorer-turned-developer, advancing a past-producing, Carlin-style oxide gold deposit through feasibility and federal permitting toward a modern open-pit, run-of-mine heap leach mining operation. The 2024 Preliminary Feasibility Study defines a 17-year mine life with 3.1 million ounces of probable mineral reserves, projected average annual production of 135,000 ounces, all-in sustaining costs of US$1,208/oz in Years 1-5, an after-tax NPV of US$550M and a 32% IRR at a US$2,000/oz gold price, with US$327M initial capital. As of January 2026, the indicated resource stands at 4.88 million ounces and inferred at 1.05 million ounces.

The company's core technology is run-of-mine heap leach processing, which avoids the need for crushers, conveyors, float plants and tailings dams; metallurgical testing across 170+ composite and 6 bulk samples has demonstrated 80%+ leachable gold recovery within 10 days. Black Pine is the first U.S. precious metals project accepted into the FAST-41 federal permitting framework with aligned Idaho state permitting, and a Final Record of Decision is targeted for January 2028. Liberty Gold holds 100% project ownership, secured water rights, and infrastructure access in a tier-one jurisdiction (Idaho ranked 8th by the Fraser Institute).

Liberty Gold is pre-revenue and does not sell products or services today. The business model is project development financed through equity capital markets, strategic partner investment, and divestiture proceeds. In 2026 the company divested the Goldstrike Project to Heliostar Metals for up to US$72.5M and the Gage Project to Blue Moon Metals for ~US$2M, while Centerra Gold holds a 9.9% strategic stake via top-up rights. Future revenue will be generated from gold sales into commodity markets once Black Pine reaches production, which is targeted post-2028 permitting.

Direct peers

• Argonaut Gold: Mid-tier gold producer with operating heap-leach mines in the U.S. Great Basin and Mexico (Magino, Florida Canyon, La Colorada). Most comparable to Liberty Gold in stage transition from developer to producer in similar oxide gold assets and jurisdictions.
• Heliostar Metals: Gold developer/producer that acquired Liberty Gold's Goldstrike project (April 2026, US$72.5M). Operates the La Colorada mine and is advancing Ana Paula—directly comparable as a North American oxide gold heap-leach operator.
• Integra Resources: U.S.-focused gold developer advancing the DeLamar oxide gold-silver project in Idaho, also a heap-leach oxide gold asset in the Great Basin. Closest geographic and technical analog to Liberty Gold's Black Pine project.
• i-80 Gold: U.S.-focused gold developer advancing oxide and refractory projects in Nevada including the Lone Tree and Granite Creek heap-leach assets. Closely comparable as a single-jurisdiction gold developer focused on heap-leach processing in the Great Basin.

Broad incumbents

• Centerra Gold: Canadian mid-tier gold producer (Mount Milligan, Öksüt) and 9.9% strategic shareholder of Liberty Gold. Comparable as a producing gold company with heap-leach expertise (Mount Milligan and prior Marigold) and an active acquirer of development-stage assets.
• Coeur Mining: U.S.-headquartered precious metals producer operating heap-leach mines including Kensington, Wharf, and Rochester. Comparable given U.S. operating footprint and heap-leach processing expertise; relevant precedent as a potential acquirer or partner.
• SSR Mining: Mid-tier gold producer with multiple heap-leach operations including Marigold (Nevada), where Liberty Gold's CEO previously served. Highly comparable operationally and an important source of technical talent now embedded in Liberty Gold's leadership.
• Alamos Gold: Intermediate gold producer with U.S. operations (Young-Davidson, Island Mountain) and Mexico (Mulatos). Comparable as a multi-asset operator with development pipeline; potential acquirer of Liberty Gold at construction stage.
• Equinox Gold: Multi-asset intermediate gold producer with significant U.S. presence including Castle Mountain and Mesquite in California. Comparable as a mid-tier operator with active M&A and development programs in U.S. oxide gold.

Emerging players

• Gold Standard Ventures: Pre-production gold developer with the Pinion oxide gold project and Dark Star oxide deposit in Nevada's Carlin trend. Comparable as an oxide gold developer pursuing heap-leach production in a tier-one U.S. jurisdiction.
