Baker Mining and Metals, plans to visit its Red Rock Canyon Gold Project in the first week of December 2026 to process gold-bearing rock and pour the first gold bar from the property. [Stock Titan](https://www.stocktitan.net/news/LBSR/liberty-star-minerals-to-host-mt-baker-mining-and-metals-founder-ob9xdne7p044.html) published the announcement on November 12, 2026.\n\n## What Gaber Will Do at Red Rock Canyon\n\n[Liberty Star Uranium & Metals](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0005jnl/liberty-star-uranium-metals) said Gaber plans to walk the property with its technical team, examine exposed gold-bearing veins, jasperoid lenses and the Carlin-style formation, and collect fresh rock for processing. Using [Mt. Baker Mining and Metals](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/000fgl1/mt-baker-mining-and-metals) equipment, he will crush, mill and concentrate the material to determine how much gold can be recovered.\n\nGaber plans to film the visit and any sample processing for his YouTube channel, which the company describes as one of the most widely followed mining channels on the platform. Mt. Baker Mining and Metals, founded by Gaber and his father in 2010, designs and manufactures jaw crushers, hammer mills, shaker tables and turn-key ore processing systems built in the United States.\n\nChannel sampling at Red Rock Canyon has returned bonanza-grade gold assays of up to 107.5 grams per ton and 60.0 grams per ton, according to the company. Liberty Star said recent field work identified additional jasperoid lenses and extended known mineralization. The company said the processing is a demonstration of the metallurgical character of the mineralization and is not a resource or reserve estimate.\n\n\"Red Rock Canyon has delivered bonanza grade gold in sample after sample, and we are ready to show the world what that rock can do,\" said Pete O'Heeron, Chairman of Liberty Star Minerals. Gaber said: \"I'm excited to visit Red Rock Canyon and see the property for myself. We look forward to testing a sample back at the shop and running it through our equipment to see what amount of gold we can recover.\"\n\n## Liberty Star's Arizona Footprint\n\nAccording to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data), Liberty Star staked an additional 13 mineral exploration permits covering roughly 11 square miles in April 2026, lifting its total mineralized footprint to approximately 45 square miles. The same records show the company engaged former U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry as a board advisor and minerals adviser in September 2026. Liberty Star is a Tucson-based, pre-revenue exploration company with total funding of $10 million, the records show.\n\n## Earlier Steps Toward the December Visit\n\nIn November 2026, Liberty Star received Arizona State Land Department approval for its Geologic Field Operations Plan, authorizing surface geologic mapping, outcrop sampling and panning across a 40-acre project area in the Tombstone Mining District, Stock Titan reported. In September 2026, the company appointed Rick Perry as critical minerals advisor to its board, with about 45 square miles of claims in the district, Stock Titan reported. In August 2026, Liberty Star said it would present at the OTCQB Virtual Investor Conference on August 5, 2026, GlobeNewswire reported.\n\n## Results After the Visit\n\nLiberty Star said sample locations, weights and recoveries will be recorded by its technical team, and the company intends to share results, images and video from the visit with shareholders following the event.\n","publisher":{"name":"News for Agent","url":"https://newsforagent.com"}}
