LBC Libero Copper & Gold Corporation

Libero Copper Corporation (TSX-V: LBC, OTCQB: LBCMF) is pleased to announce the appointment of Bill Bennett to the Libero Copper Board of Directors.  Mr. Bennett was unanimously elected at Libero Copper’s Annual General Meeting held on June 13, 2019.

Mr. Bennett was a government MLA in British Colombia for sixteen years in the Riding of Kootenay East and was named BC Mines Minister three separate times.  He led the BC government’s efforts over many years to restore BC’s competitiveness for mining investment, including having improved BC’s permitting process and helping to launch BC’s First Nations mine revenue sharing program.  There are few people in Canada who have such a strong combined knowledge of government processes, the mining industry and First Nations.  Mr. Bennett will be instrumental in progressing the Big Red project in British Columbia as we commence exploration.

The current Board of Directors now includes Bill Bennett, Rob Pease, Jay Sujir and Ian Slater.

Libero Copper has granted 1,500,000 incentive stock options to directors and employees at an exercise price of $0.10 expiring December 11, 2023.
