TABLE OF CONTENTS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are projections in respect of future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as may, should, expects, plans, anticipates, believes, estimates, predicts, potential or continue or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q include statements about:
- our intention to raise additional capital;
- our future capital expenditures
- our business plan;
- our future exploration programs and results; and
- our plan to ascertain whether our properties contain commercially viable deposits of resources.
These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our industrys actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks include, by way of example and not in limitation:
- general economic and business conditions;
- our dependence on additional financings;
- the existence of our mining claims depends on our ability to fund exploratory activity or to pay fees;
- our agreements with Deer Valley may depress the market price of our common stock and our shareholders interest may be diluted;
- we may be unable to meet our debt obligations;
- a third party has filed a lien against some of our claims, which prevents us from completing a settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty Minerals, Ltd as quickly as planned.
- risks and uncertainties that the mineral deposits will never constitute proven and probable reserves which can be developed and mined economically;
- mining and development risks, including risks related to accidents, equipment breakdowns, labor disputes, permitting, or other unanticipated difficulties with or interruptions and delays in development and production;
- the potential for delays in exploration activities;
- risks related to the engagement of our companys directors and officers and key consultants in other business activities whereby they may not have sufficient time to attend to our companys business affairs;
- risks related to failure to obtain adequate financing and additional capital on a timely basis and on acceptable terms for our planned exploration.
- risks related to environmental regulation and liability, and the ability to secure necessary governmental permits, consents and approvals;
- risks that the amounts reserved or allocated for environmental compliance, reclamation, post-closure control measures, monitoring and on-going maintenance may not be sufficient to cover such costs;
- risks related to tax assessments;
- political, community, regulatory and permitting risks associated with mining exploration.,
While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this quarterly report.
As used in this quarterly report, the terms "we", "us", "Company", and "Liberty Star" mean Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. and our subsidiary Big Chunk Corp. (“Big Chunk”), unless otherwise indicated. All dollar amounts refer to U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.

LIBERTY STAR URANIUM & METALS CORP.
(AN EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – Interim financial statement disclosure
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2013 as filed with the SEC under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted, as permitted by the SEC, although we believe the disclosures which are made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position at October 31, 2013 and the results of our operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Interim results are subject to significant seasonal variations and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Certain amounts in the prior-year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in the current-year financial statements.
NOTE 2– Going concern
The Company is in the exploration stage, has incurred losses from operations, and requires additional funds for further exploratory activity and to maintain its claims prior to attaining a revenue generating status. There are no assurances that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of our properties. In addition, the Company may not find sufficient ore reserves to be commercially mined. As such, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Management is working to secure additional funds through the exercise of stock warrants already outstanding, equity financings, debt financings or joint venture agreements, and off-take agreements. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
NOTE 3 – Common stock
Our common shares are all of the same class, are voting and entitle stockholders to receive dividends as defined. Upon liquidation or wind-up, stockholders are entitled to participate equally with respect to any distribution of net assets or any dividends that may be declared.

On October 30, 2013, the Company entered into an investment agreement in which with KVM Capital Partners LLC, a New York limited liability company (KVM). Pursuant to the agreement, KVM has agreed to purchase up to $8,000,000 of our common stock over a period of up to thirty-six (36) months. The purchase price per share to be paid by KVM shall be calculated at a twenty percent (20%) discount to the lowest volume weighted average price of the common stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. during the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the receipt by KVM of the put notice. We initially reserved 244,500,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under the KVM Investment Agreement. In connection with the KVM Investment Agreement, we also entered into a registration rights agreement with KVM, pursuant to which we are obligated to file a registration statement with the SEC covering 244,500,000 shares of our common stock underlying the KVM Investment Agreement within 21 days after the closing of the transaction. In addition, we are obligated to use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC and maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement until termination of the KVM Investment Agreement. On November 6, 2013, we filed form S-1 related to the KVM investment agreement. As of October 31, 2013, no shares were purchased by the investor.
During the nine months ended October 31, 2013 there were 7,423,624 stock options granted at an exercise price of $0.03 per share, exercisable until September 5, 2023 with a fair value at grant date of $215,912. The options granted will be 100% vested for directors and shall vest in 25% increments on a yearly basis over the next four years for employees. In order to calculate the fair value of stock options at the date of grant, we use the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The volatility used was based on our historical volatility. The expected term was determined based on the simplified method outlined in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Remaining stock option expense to be recognized in future periods related to the award is $48,840.
At October 31, 2013 there were 903,500 non-qualified stock options outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $1.429 per option; of those options 872,250 are exercisable.

For the nine months ending October 31, 2013, we recognized compensation expense of $165,405 for stock options granted to officers and board members.
NOTE 5 Fair value of financial instruments
Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents,
accounts payable, accrued liabilities, convertible notes payable, notes payable,
and warrant liability. It is management's opinion that we are not exposed to
significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial
instruments. With the exception of the warrant liability, the fair value of
these financial instruments approximates their carrying values based on their
short maturities or for long-term debt based on borrowing rates currently
available to us for loans with similar terms and maturities, which represent
Level 3 input. Gains and losses recognized on changes in estimated fair value of
the warrant liability are reported in other income (expense) as gain (loss) on
change in fair value.
We estimate the fair value of the warrant liability using level 3 inputs and the
Black-Scholes valuation model. We use historical volatility as a method to
estimate expected volatility. At October 31, 2013 and January 31, 2013 we had
2,500,000 whole share purchase warrants outstanding that contain a full ratchet
down anti-dilution provision which is triggered if we enter into any lower
priced issuance than $0.0264 per common share. We used the following assumptions
to estimate the fair value of the warrant liability at October 31, 2013 and
January 31, 2013:
Expected | Expected dividend | Expected | Risk-free interest | |
Description | volatility | yield | term | rate |
Warrant liability at October 31, 2013 | 208.00% | 0% | 2.75 | 0.57% |
Warrant liability at January 31, 2013 | 99.80% | 0% | 3.59 years | 0.65% |

NOTE 6 Debt
In August, 2013, we entered into a promissory note (the August 2013 Note) for a principal sum of $555,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees. The consideration is up to $500,000, which would produce an original issue discount of $55,000 if all the consideration is received. The lender paid $150,000 upon closing pursuant to the terms of the August 2013 Note. The August 2013 Note has a maturity of one year from the delivery of each payment. The August 2013 Note may be convertible into shares of common stock of our company at any time from 180 days after the date of each payment of consideration, at a conversion price which is 70% of the average of the three lowest closing prices in the 20 trading days previous to the conversion. We may repay the August 2013 Note at any time on or before 90 days from the effective date of the August 2013 Note with an interest rate of 0%, after which we may not make any further payments on the August 2013 Note prior to the maturity date without written approval from the lender. If we elect not to repay the August 2013 Note on or before 90 days from the effective date of the August 2013 Note, a one-time interest charge of 12% will be applied to the principal sum.
NOTE 7 Changes in officers and directors
On August 28, 2013, Larry Liang, resigned as the president and a director of our company. On the same date, we appointed James Briscoe as president of our company until a replacement is named.
NOTE 8 Subsequent events
On November 18, 2013, we entered into a securities purchase agreement, whereby we agreed to issue a convertible note to one lender in the principal amount of $250,000. The Note is payable in full on November 18, 2014 and bears no interest except in an event of default. The lender may, at its option, after the 183rd day following the closing date, convert the principal amount or any portion of such principal amount of the Note into shares of common stock of our company at the price equal to the lesser of (a) 100% of the volume weighted average price (VWAP), as reported on the closing date (November 18, 2013), and (b) 70% of the average of the 5 day VWAP immediately prior to the day of conversion.
On December 9, 2013, we received additional consideration of $75,000 pursuant to the terms of the August 2013 Note.

While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein.
Such estimates, projections or other "forward looking statements" involve various risks and uncertainties as outlined below. We caution the reader that important factors in some cases have affected and, in the future, could materially affect actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in any such estimates, projections or other "forward looking statements".
Our Business
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition of our company. Management’s Discussion and Analysis is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. was formerly Liberty Star Gold Corp. and formerly Titanium Intelligence, Inc. We were incorporated on August 20, 2001 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Big Chunk is our wholly owned subsidiary and was incorporated on December 14, 2003 in the State of Alaska. Big Chunk is engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties business in the State of Alaska. We are an exploration stage company, as we have not generated revenues from operations. We use the term “Super Project” to indicate a project in which numerous mineral targets have been identified, any one or more of which could potentially contain commercially viable quantities of minerals. Our significant projects are:
North Pipes Super Project (“NPSP”): Located in Northern Arizona on the Arizona Strip, we plan to ascertain whether the North Pipes Super Project claims possess commercially viable deposits of uranium and associated co-product metals. We have not identified any ore reserves to date.
Big Chunk Super Project (“Big Chunk”): Located in the Iliamna region of Southwestern Alaska, we plan to ascertain whether the Big Chunk claims possess commercially viable deposits of copper, gold, molybdenum, silver, palladium rhenium and zinc. We have maintained our existing mining claims by declaring sufficient work on them to cover assessment work on them for the Assessment Year starting at noon September 1, 2012 and ending at noon September 1, 2013. Rental fees on these claims payable to State of Alaska remain due on the last day of November 2013. We have not identified any ore reserves to date.
Tombstone Super Project (“Tombstone”) (formerly referred to as Tombstone Porphyry Precious Metals Project): Tombstone is located in Cochise County, Arizona. We plan to ascertain whether the land holding at the Hay Mountain Project within the Tombstone Super Project area possess commercially viable deposits of copper, molybdenum, gold, silver, lead, zinc, manganese and other metals. While exploring for the aforesaid metals, we found a very large porphyry copper style geochemical anomaly containing those metals in a classic porphyry copper zoning pattern. We also found a very spatially large anomaly of Rare Earth Elements (REE’s). This anomaly covers approximately seven to nine square miles. It is still under evaluation but at this time, its symmetry, draped around the east end of the porphyry copper anomaly, suggests they are related genetically as a distant (distal) halo of metals including REEs around the porphyry copper center. In the fall of 2013 an occurrence of REEs in the nearby (15 miles) Bisbee porphyry copper deposit, which the Company is using as a model for the Hay Mountain porphyry, was revealed in a report by the Head of the US Geological Survey, Minerals Division. He proposed that REE’s may be common in porphyry copper systems and a possible source of REE production, thus corroborating our discovery of the substantial distal zone of REE’s related to Hay Mountain., Study is ongoing. Prior to this discovery there were no significant or potentially minable anomalies of REEs, in Arizona. Our close spaced grid lines of electromagnetic and magnetic survey (ZTEM) over and around the Hay Mountain area was completed. Preliminary results and their interpretation suggest there are ten targets representing porphyry copper like resistivity and magnetic features and may represent skarn like bodies. These resistivity and magnetic features suggest potential for near surface enriched material as well as skarn bodies which go to significant depths. These features are similar to such bodies identified by ZTEM surveys in other porphyry copper terrains elsewhere in the world. These surveys now complete technical studies the Company felt necessary to pinpoint drilling targets. The next step is to drill, using diamond core drills to test the targets. This will be done as soon as final permitting is complete and funding is available. Because we have not drilled, we have not identified any ore reserves to date.
East Silver Bell Porphyry Copper Project (“East Silver Bell”): Located northwest of Tucson, Arizona, we plan to ascertain whether the East Silver Bell claims possess commercially viable deposits of copper. We have not identified any ore reserves to date.
The mineral resource business generally consists of three stages: exploration, development and production. Mineral resource companies that are in the exploration stage have not yet found mineral resources in commercially exploitable quantities, and are engaged in exploring land in an effort to discover them. Mineral resource companies that have located a mineral resource in commercially exploitable quantities and are preparing to extract that resource are in the development stage, while those engaged in the extraction of a known mineral resource are in the production stage. We are in the exploration stage – as we have not found any mineral resources in commercially exploitable quantities.
There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of our properties, and further exploration is required before we can evaluate whether any exist and, if so, whether it would be economically feasible to develop or exploit those resources. Even if we complete our current exploration program and we are successful in identifying a mineral deposit, we would be required to spend substantial funds on further drilling and engineering studies before we could know whether that mineral deposit will constitute a reserve (a reserve is a commercially viable mineral deposit).
To date, we have not generated any revenues and we remain in the exploration stage. Our ability to pursue our business plan and generate revenues is subject to our ability to obtain additional financing, and we cannot give any assurance that we will be able to do so.

Agreement with Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd
On July 15, 2010, we issued a secured convertible promissory note (the "2010 Convertible Note") to Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd ("Northern Dynasty"). The original advanced amount is $4,000,000 and bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum compounded monthly (the "Loan"). On August 17, 2010, we transferred 95 of our Alaska State mineral claims from the Big Chunk Super Project to Northern Dynasty for consideration of $1,000,000 of the original advanced amount under the Convertible Note, leaving $3,000,000 of the Loan amount outstanding. No interest accrued on the $1,000,000 of the original advanced amount. Effective September 1, 2011, the agreement with Northern Dynasty was amended to increase the 2010 Convertible Note by $561,816 to reimburse Northern Dynasty for assessment work, rental fees, cash in lieu of assessment work and filing fees on the mineral claims that was paid in fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2012 because we could not come to an agreement on an earn-in option and joint venture agreement with Northern Dynasty. On February 29, 2012, with effect from November 30, 2011, we executed an additional convertible promissory note (the "2011 Convertible Note" and together with the 2010 Convertible Note, the "Convertible Notes") in the amount of $168,358 in reimbursement to Northern Dynasty of assessment work, rental fees and filing fees on our mineral claims. The principal balance of the Convertible Notes at October 31, 2013 was $3,730,174 with accrued interest on the Convertible Notes at October 31, 2013 at $1,336,281. As part of the transactions noted above, we entered into a letter agreement with Northern Dynasty whereby, subject to negotiating and signing a definitive earn-in option and joint venture agreement, Northern Dynasty can earn a 60% interest in our Big Chunk project in Alaska (the "Joint Venture Claims") by spending $10,000,000 on those properties over six years. Details of this agreement may be found in Liberty Star news releases and in the public record.
To date, no joint venture agreement has been agreed upon. Northern Dynasty demanded payment of the funds due under the Convertible Notes. On November 14, 2012 the Parties (NDM-U-5 Resources) and Liberty Star negotiated a settlement where in Liberty Star transferred a certain number of non-critical mineral lands to NDM-U-5 Resources in satisfaction of the debt.
On November 14, 2012, we signed a loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty which would have discharged the $3,730,174 principal balance and $1,088,222 of accrued interest for the 2010 Convertible Note and would have terminated Northern Dynasty’s earn-in rights. In exchange for the settlement, we initiated the transfer of 199 Alaska mining claims to Northern Dynasty’s subsidiary, U5 Resources. However, since a third party filed liens against the claims and there is a dispute with Northern Dynasty regarding the effect of the liens, we have not recorded the settlement transaction as of October 31, 2013, pending resolution of the lien claims. Northern Dynasty takes the position that the settlement is not complete while the lien claims are outstanding. We are vigorously disputing the lien claims and working to have them vacated.
Financing Agreement with Deer Valley Capital Offshore Ltd.
On January 19, 2012, we entered into a financing agreement (the “Deer Valley Agreement”) with Deer Valley Capital Offshore Ltd. (“Deer Valley Capital”), whereby Deer Valley Capital will provide for a non-brokered financing arrangement of up to $10,000,000. The financing allows but does not require us to issue and sell up to the number of shares of common stock having an aggregate purchase price of $10,000,000 to Deer Valley Capital. On May 1, 2012, we entered into an amendment to the Investment Agreement (the “Amendment”). Pursuant to the Amendment, the Investment Agreement will only expire upon any of the following events: (i) when the Investor has purchased an aggregate of Ten Million dollars ($10,000,000) in the shares of our common stock pursuant to the Investment Agreement; or (ii) on the date which is thirty-six (36) months after the effective date of the Investment Agreement; or (iii) at such time that the Registration Statement registering the shares of common stock contemplated by the Investment Agreement is no longer in effect. In addition, we may terminate the Investment Agreement upon thirty (30) days written notice. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Deer Valley Agreement and a registration rights agreement entered into concurrently (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), we may, in our sole discretion, deliver a notice to Deer Valley Capital which states the dollar amount which we intend to sell to Deer Valley Capital on a certain date. The amount that we shall be entitled to sell to Deer Valley Capital shall be equal to two hundred percent (200%) of the average daily volume (U.S. market only) of our shares of common stock for the ten (10) trading days prior to the applicable notice date. Such shares of our common stock will be valued at a 27.5% discount from the weighted average trading price of our stock for the five (5) trading days before Deer Valley Capital receives our notice of sale. The shares of common stock that we sell to Deer Valley Capital must be registered stock, among other conditions of investment.
Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission within twenty-one (21) days of the date of the Registration Rights Agreement and to have a registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days from January 19, 2012. The registration statement was filed on March 13, 2012 and has been declared effective.
In August 2013, we decided to terminate the Deer Valley Agreement due to their violation of the payment terms pursuant to the agreement. No further shares issuances to Deer Valley Management, LLC are expected to occur.
Changes in Officers and Directors
On August 28, 2013, Larry Liang, resigned as the president and a director of our company. On the same date, we appointed James Briscoe as president of our company until a replacement is named.

Results of Operations
Material Changes in Financial Condition for the Nine Month Period Ended October 31, 2013
We had cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $90,996 as of October 31, 2013 compared to $117,716 as of January 31, 2013. We had negative working capital of $5,770,168 as of October 31, 2013 compared to $(5,025,086) as of January 31, 2013. We received $898,271 net cash inflows from financing activities during the nine months ended October 31, 2013 which was utilized for working capital. We also utilized our cash funds to continue exploration activities at our Hay Mountain mineral lands by working on geochemical soil, rock chip and vegetation sampling. We purchased $1,418 in new equipment during the nine months ended October 31, 2013. We have been raising capital from selling equity by way of private placements. We intend to continue to raise capital from such sources. In addition, we previously entered into the Investment Agreement with Deer Valley whereby we were permitted, but not required, to issue and sell up to the number of shares of our common stock having an aggregate purchase price of $10,000,000 to Deer Valley. In addition to seeking sources of funding through the sale of equity, we may seek to enter into joint venture agreements, or other types of agreements with other companies to finance our projects for the long term. In addition, we may choose to sell a portion of our assets to finance our projects. Should our properties prove to be commercially viable, we may be in a position to seek debt financing to help build infrastructure, and finally, we eventually hope to obtain revenues from commercial mining of our properties.
Material Changes in Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Month Periods Ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012
We had a net loss of $770,426 and $1,798,142 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively, compared to a net loss of $1,002,895 and $2,010,349 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2012, respectively. During the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013 we incurred a decrease of approximately $407,190 and $534,489, respectively, in geological and geophysical costs compared to the three and nine months ended October 31, 2012 due to reduced geochemical sampling and mapping being performed on our Hay Mountain project. We incurred an increase in legal expense of approximately $25,333 and $83,951 during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended October 31, 2012, due to the costs associated with defending a lien claim by a former associate. We incurred an increase in interest expense of approximately $11,389 and $34,363 during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended October, 31, 2012 due to the compounding effect this year compared to last year. We incurred an increase in investor relation expenses of approximately $54,332 and $53,590 during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended October 31, 2012 due to our efforts to increase market awareness and search for additional funding sources.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In August, 2013, we entered into a promissory note (the “August 2013 Note”) for a principal sum of $555,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees. The consideration is up to $500,000, which would produce an original issue discount of $55,000 if all the consideration is received. The lender paid $150,000 upon closing pursuant to the terms of the August 2013 Note. The August 2013 Note has a maturity of one year from the delivery of each payment. The August 2013 Note may be convertible into shares of common stock of our company at any time from 180 days after the date of each payment of consideration. We may repay the August 2013 Note at any time on or before 90 days from the effective date of the August 2013 Note with an interest rate of 0%. If we elect not to repay the August 2013 Note on or before 90 days from the effective date of the August 2013 Note, a one-time interest charge of 12% will be applied to the principal sum. On December 9, 2013, we received additional consideration of $75,000 pursuant to the terms of the August 2013 Note.
On November 18, 2013, we entered into a securities purchase agreement, whereby we agreed to issue a convertible note to one lender in the principal amount of $250,000. The Note is payable in full on November 18, 2014 and bears no interest except in an event of default.
Critical Accounting Policies
The condensed consolidated financial statements of Liberty Star have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 in our Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2013. The critical accounting policies adopted by our company are as follows:
Going Concern
Since we have not generated any revenue, we have negative cash flows from operations, and negative working capital we have included a reference to the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in connection with our consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013. Our total stockholders’ deficit at October 31, 2013 was $5,720,422.
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that adequate sources of financing will be obtained as required and that our assets will be realized, and liabilities settled in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability of assets and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Mineral claims
We account for costs incurred to acquire, maintain and explore mineral properties as charged to expense in the period incurred until the time that an ore body is established at which point development of the mineral property would be capitalized. Currently, we do not have any proven mineral resources on any of our mineral properties.
12
Common stock purchase warrants
We report common stock purchase warrants as equity unless a condition exists which requires reporting as a derivative liability at fair market value. For common stock purchase warrants reported as a derivative liability, as well as new and modified warrants reported as equity, we utilize the Black-Scholes valuation method in order to determine fair value.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
13
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at October 31, 2013, which is the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out by Mr. James Briscoe, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based on this evaluation, Mr. Briscoe has concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as at the end of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended October 31, 2013 there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
A civil action is pending in the Alaska Superior Court in Anchorage, Alaska, that concerns title to some Alaska state mining claims owned by Big Chunk Corp., a subsidiary of Liberty Star. In this action Big Chunk and Liberty Star are requesting a judicial determination that certain lien claim notices recorded by a party named MBGS, LLC, against the mining claims are void; and MBGS is seeking an order enforcing the lien claims.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
In August, 2013, we entered into a promissory note (the “August 2013 Note”) for a principal sum of $555,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees. The consideration is up to $500,000, which would produce an original issue discount of $55,000 if all the consideration is received. The lender paid $150,000 upon closing pursuant to the terms of the August 2013 Note. The August 2013 Note has a maturity of one year from the delivery of each payment. The August 2013 Note may be convertible into shares of common stock of our company at any time from 180 days after the date of each payment of consideration, at a conversion price which is 70% of the average of the three lowest closing prices in the 20 trading days previous to the conversion. We may repay the August 2013 Note at any time on or before 90 days from the effective date of the August 2013 Note with an interest rate of 0%, after which we may not make any further payments on the August 2013 Note prior to the maturity date without written approval from the lender. If we elect not to repay the August 2013 Note on or before 90 days from the effective date of the August 2013 Note, a one-time interest charge of 12% will be applied to the principal sum.
Effective September 5, 2013, we agreed to grant stock options pursuant to our 2010 Stock Option Plan to certain directors and employees for the option to purchase an aggregate of 9,375,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.03 per share, exercisable until September 5, 2013. The options granted will be 100% vested for directors and shall vest in 25% increments on a yearly basis over the next four years for employees. 1,457,027 of these options are reserved for future issuance when room becomes available under our 2010 Stock Option Plan.
In September, 2013, we sold 2,157,497 units to one investor for gross proceeds of $50,000. Each unit consisted of one common share of our company and one non-transferable share purchase warrant. Each share purchase warrant entitles the investor to purchase one additional common share of our company at a price of $0.0324 until September 5, 2016.
On October 30, 2013, the Company entered into an investment agreement in which with KVM Capital Partners LLC, a New York limited liability company (“KVM”). Pursuant to the agreement, KVM has agreed to purchase up to $8,000,000 of our common stock over a period of up to thirty-six (36) months. The purchase price per share to be paid by KVM shall be calculated at a twenty percent (20%) discount to the lowest volume weighted average price of the common stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. during the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the receipt by KVM of the put notice. We initially reserved 244,500,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under the KVM Investment Agreement. In connection with the KVM Investment Agreement, we also entered into a registration rights agreement with KVM, pursuant to which we are obligated to file a registration statement with the SEC covering 244,500,000 shares of our common stock underlying the KVM Investment Agreement within 21 days after the closing of the transaction. In addition, we are obligated to use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC and maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement until termination of the KVM Investment Agreement. On November 6, 2013, we filed form S-1 related to the KVM investment agreement. As of October 31, 2013, no shares were purchased by the investor.
