FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Liberty Star‘s JV Agreement with XState Resources
Tucson, Arizona – September 11, 2008 – Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (LBSU: OTCBB the “Company”) and XState Resources (“XState”) of Australia (XST: AX) have decided to change the JV Agreement on the North Pipes Super Project exploration properties. James A. Briscoe, the Company’s CEO, and David MacArthur, XState’s CEO, have agreed that XState will maintain a 50% interest in three uranium exploration targets at North Pipes. The three areas can be chosen from all the targets over which exploration has been conducted by the joint venture in the last 18 months.
Both parties agree to enter into a formal 50/50 contributing joint venture in relation to the three targets chosen by XState. The previous “earn–in” agreement is terminated. The Company retains former JV funds to complete minor rehabilitation on exploration sites and conclude administrative tasks.
The Company has maintained its land position on the Arizona Strip and will continue to pursue additional joint venture partnerships or favorable alternative relationships to explore their breccia pipe targets for uranium and other metals.
