TUCSON, Ariz., Sept. 4, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Liberty Star Uranium and Metals Corp. (OTCBB:LBSU) (http://www.libertystaruranium.com) is pleased to announce it has retained the services of AGORACOM Investor Relations ("AGORACOM") (http://www.agoracom.com) to provide investor relations services.
The objective of this agreement is two-fold. First, to create effective communication between Liberty Star, its shareholders and the investment community through AGORACOM's internet based investor relations system. Effective immediately, a customized and monitored Liberty Star IR HUB (http://www.agoracom.com/IR/LibertyStar) will allow both Liberty Star and AGORACOM to communicate with all investors simultaneously, anytime and in real-time, while providing shareholders with equal access and complete transparency to all investor relations communications. The IR HUB will also provide one-click access to all critical Liberty Star IR information. In addition, the IR HUB provides investors with a discussion forum for the purposes of constructive and high-quality discussion about the Company. The forum is monitored to prevent spam, bashing, hyping and profanity. A highlight of the hub will be an audio address by Liberty Star's President and CEO, James A. Briscoe.
Second, AGORACOM will be responsible for raising awareness of Liberty Star among retail investors for the purposes of attracting new and prospective shareholders. As an exclusive small-cap content provider to Yahoo Finance Canada, AOL Finance Canada and every Blackberry device on the planet, AGORACOM will provide Tier-1 financial coverage of all meaningful Liberty Star press releases.
In addition, AGORACOM will be launching, on behalf of Liberty Star, a Google IR Program that specifically targets small-cap investors interested in the mining sector generally and the uranium sector more specifically. AGORACOM's Google IR Program is exclusive to AGORACOM as the entire campaign is managed directly by Google.
AGORACOM will be fully responsible for creating, implementing and executing an investor relations strategy, the consolidation of which will save management a considerable amount of time, effort and expense, allowing them to focus on core business operations, while significantly improving shareholder communications.
Liberty Star President James Briscoe stated, "I believe the time has now come to significantly increase our communications with existing shareholders and the investment community. We understand the power of conducting investor relations over the web to reach the widest possible audience of investors."
For all future Liberty Star investor relations needs, investors are asked to visit the Liberty Star IR Hub at http://www.agoracom.com/IR/LibertyStar where they can post questions and receive answers within the same day, or simply review questions and answers posted by other investors. Alternatively, investors can e-mail all questions and correspondence to LBSU@agoracom.com . They can also use that address to request to be included on the investor e-mail list to receive all future press releases and updates in real time.
