These data are from the recent campaign and will be incorporated into the 2024 prefeasibility study, noted a Canaccord Genuity report.

Liberty Gold Corp. (LGD:TSX; LGDTF:OTCQX) released a large batch of positive 2023 drill results from its Black Pine oxide gold project in Idaho, reported Canaccord Genuity analyst Peter Bell in an October 31 research note.

"Overall, we believe these results bode well for the upcoming prefeasibility [study] on Black Pine and look forward [to] the remaining assays from the 2023 drill program," Bell wrote.

573% Return Possible

Canaccord reiterated its CA$1.75 per share target price on the Canadian junior developer, currently trading at about CA$0.26 per share, noted Bell.

The difference between these two prices implies a substantial return for investors of 573%.

Liberty remains a Speculative Buy.

Growing the Resource

Newly reported results are from 39 holes drilled as part of Liberty's 30,000-meter (30,000m) program this year aimed at expanding the resource ahead of the Black Pine prefeasibility study expected in 2024, Bell reported. Results are specifically from three zones: Back Range, Rangefront, and M.

Bell presented these highlights from the new set of drill results, one from each of the targeted zones:

  • 0.5 g/t Au over 32m, including 1.26 g/t Au over 3m in the Rangefront zone (hole LBP986)
  • 0.63 g/t Au over 18.3m, including 1.24 g/t Au over 6.1m in the M zone (hole LBP987)
  • 0.42 g/t Au over 68.6m, including 1.08 g/t Au over 3m in the Back Range zone (hole LBP1005)

"Today's results have [the] potential to incrementally increase the resource size," Bell wrote at each of these deposits. He also noted that while the grades are similar to the 0.5 gram per ton gold (0.5 g/t Au) grade of the existing resource, they "highlight open gold zones."

Of the three zones, Rangefront is particularly significant, Bell added, given its nearness to the proposed processing area and given its above-average recoveries.

Short-Term Trade Ideas

Research Analysts may, from time to time, discuss “short-term trade ideas” in research reports. A short-term trade idea offers a near-term view on how a security may trade, based on market and trading events or catalysts, and the resulting trading opportunity that may be available. Any such trading strategies are distinct from and do not affect the analysts' fundamental equity rating for such stocks. A short-term trade idea may differ from the price targets and recommendations in our published research reports that

reflect the research analyst's views of the longer-term (i.e. one-year or greater) prospects of the subject company, as a result of the differing time horizons, methodologies and/or other factors. It is possible, for example, that a subject company's common equity that is considered a long-term 'Hold' or 'Sell' might present a short-term buying opportunity as a result of temporary selling pressure in the market or for other reasons described in the research report; conversely, a subject company's stock rated a long-term 'Buy' or “Speculative Buy’ could be considered susceptible to a downward price correction, or other factors may exist that lead the research analyst to suggest a sale over the short-term. Short-term trade ideas are not ratings, nor are they part of any ratings system, and the firm does not intend, and does not undertake any obligation, to maintain or update short-term trade ideas. Short-term trade ideas are not suitable for all investors and are not tailored to individual investor circumstances and objectives, and investors should make their own independent decisions regarding any securities or strategies discussed herein. Please contact your salesperson for more information regarding Canaccord Genuity's research.
