As used in this annual report, the terms "we", "us", the “Company” and "Liberty Star" mean Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. and our subsidiary Big Chunk Corp., unless otherwise indicated. All dollar amounts refer to U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Business development

Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. was formerly Liberty Star Gold Corp. and formerly Titanium Intelligence, Inc. (“Titanium”). Titanium was incorporated on August 20, 2001 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On February 5, 2004 we commenced operations in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties business. Big Chunk Corp. (“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. Redwall Drilling Inc. (“Redwall”) was our wholly owned subsidiary and was incorporated on August 31, 2007 in the State of Arizona. Redwall performed drilling services on our mineral properties. Redwall ceased drilling activities in July 2008 and was dissolved on March 30, 2010. In April 2007, we changed our name to Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. to reflect our current general exploration for base and precious metals. We are considered to be an exploration stage company, as we have not generated any revenues from operations.

Our current business

We are an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in the States of Arizona and Alaska. Claims in the State of Alaska are held in the name of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Big Chunk Corp. Claims in the State of Arizona are held in the name of Liberty Star. 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 described below.

North Pipes Super Project (“North Pipes” and “NPSP”): Located in Northern Arizona on the Arizona Strip, we plan to ascertain whether the NPSP 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 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 and the Super Project covers the Tombstone caldera and its environs. Within the Tombstone Caldera is the Hay Mountain target where we are concentrating our work at this time. We plan to ascertain whether the Tombstone, Hay Mountain claims possess commercially viable deposits of copper, molybdenum, gold, silver, lead, zinc, manganese and other metals including Rare Earth Elements (REE’s). 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.

Title to mineral claims involves certain inherent risks due to difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims as well as potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing history characteristic of many mineral properties. We have investigated title to all the Company’s mineral properties and, to the best of its knowledge, title to all properties are in good standing.


6

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 an ore reserve (an ore 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.

Competition

We are a mineral resource exploration stage company engaged in the business of mineral exploration. We compete with other mineral resource exploration stage companies for financing from a limited number of investors that are prepared to make investments in mineral resource exploration stage companies. The presence of competing mineral resource exploration stage companies may impact our ability to raise additional capital in order to fund our property acquisitions and exploration programs if investors are of the view that investments in competitors are more attractive based on the merit of the mineral properties under investigation and the price of the investment offered to investors.

We also compete for mineral properties of merit with other exploration stage companies. Competition could reduce the availability of properties of merit or increase the cost of acquiring additional mineral properties.

Many of the resource exploration stage companies with whom we compete may have greater financial and technical resources than we do. Accordingly, these competitors may be able to spend greater amounts on acquisitions of properties of merit and on exploration of their properties. In addition, they may be able to afford greater geological expertise in the targeting and exploration of resource properties. This competition could result in our competitors having resource properties of greater quality and interest to prospective investors who may finance additional exploration and to senior exploration stage companies that may purchase resource properties or enter into joint venture agreements with junior exploration stage companies. This competition could adversely impact our ability to finance property acquisitions and further exploration.

Compliance with Government Regulation

We will be required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the exploration of minerals in the States of Arizona and Alaska.

We are required to perform annual assessment work in order to maintain the Big Chunk Alaska State mining claims. If annual assessment work is not performed we must pay the assessment amount in cash in order to maintain the claims. Completion of annual assessment work in the amount of $400 per 1/4 section (160 acre) claim or $100 per 1/16 section (40 acre) claim extends the claims for a one year period. Assessment work performed in excess of the required amount may be carried forward for up to 4 years to reduce future obligations for assessment work. We estimate that the required annual assessments to maintain the claims will be approximately $19,200.

The annual state rentals for the Big Chunk Alaska State mining claims vary from $70 to $280 per mineral claim and escalate with the age of the mining claim. The rental period begins at noon September 1st through the following September 1st and annual rental payments are due on November 30th of each year. Annual rent is due in full within 45 days of staking a new claim and covers the period from staking until the next September 1st. The rentals of $30,640 to extend the Big Chunk claims through September 1, 2014 were paid in November 2013. The estimated state rentals due for the Big Chunk claims by November 30, 2014 for the period from September 1, 2014 through September 1, 2015 are $30,640. Alaska State production royalty is three percent of net income. State law prescribes that after a 3.5 -year exemption from state taxes a metal mine is liable for a 15% state licensing tax on net income from the mine.

Our North Pipes claims are Federal lode mining claims located on U.S. Federal Lands and administered by the Department of Interior, Bureau of Land Management. The Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) has prepared an environmental impact statement (“EIS”) addressing potential for contamination of significant amounts of uranium leaking into the Colorado River. The EIS indicated the danger of such contamination insignificant. Regardless, the United States Secretary of the Interior, Kenneth Salazar, through executive order has withdrawn Federal lands from locatable mineral exploration and mining North of the Grand Canyon along the Utah border in Arizona, the so-called “Arizona Strip”. Nearly 1 million acres of land managed by the BLM and the Forest Service were segregated in July 2009 by the Secretary of Interior. The executive order has resulted in the withdrawal of an area of the Arizona Strip from mining in particular, and the moratorium now is instated for the next 20 years. However, the moratorium permits existing claims and mines to continue as before, including our North Pipes lode mining claims.

We are required to pay annual rentals to maintain our North Pipes Federal lode mining claims in good standing. The rental period begins at 12:01 PM on September 1st through the following September 1st at 12:00 and rental payments are due by the first day of the rental period starting at 12:01 PM. The annual rental is $140 per claim. Additional fees of $45 per claim are due in the first year of filing a Federal lode mining claim along with the first year’s rent. The rentals of $54,600 for the period from September 1, 2013 to September 1, 2014 have been paid. The annual rentals due by September 1, 2014 of $54,600 are required to maintain the North Pipes claims for the period from September 1, 2014 through September 1, 2015. There is no requirement for annual assessment or exploration work on the Federal lode mining claims, this having been supplanted by the rental fee. There are no royalties associated with the Federal lode mining claims.

We are required to pay annual rentals for our Federal lode mining claims for our East Silver Bell project in the State of Arizona. The rental period begins at noon on September 1st through the following September 1st and rental payments are due by the first day of the rental period. The annual rental is $140 per claim. The rentals fees of $3,640 for the period from September 1, 2013 to September 1, 2014 have been paid. The annual rentals due by September 1, 2014 of $3,640 are required to maintain the East Silver Bell claims are for the period from September 1, 2014 through September 1, 2015. There is no requirement for annual assessment or exploration work on the Federal lode mining claims, this having been supplanted by the rental fee. There are no royalties associated with the Federal lode mining claims.

We are required to pay annual rentals for our Federal lode mining claims for our Tombstone project in the State of Arizona. The rental period begins at noon on September 1st through the following September 1st and rental payments are due by the first day of the rental period. The annual rental is $140 per claim. Additional fees of $45 per claim are due in the first year of filing a Federal lode mining claim along with the first year’s rent. The rentals and initial filing fees for the period from September 1, 2013 to September 1, 2014 have been paid. The annual rentals due by September 1, 2014 of $ $13,860 are required to maintain the Tombstone claims for the period from September 1, 2014 through September 1, 2015. There is no requirement for annual assessment or exploration work on the Federal lode mining claims, this having been supplanted by the rental fee. There are no royalties associated with the Federal lode mining claims. Beginning September 1, 2011 at 12:01 PM, Liberty Star started and subsequently completed staking 9 Federal lode mining claims along the east edge of old patented mining claims in the main producing part of the old Tombstone mining area. These new claims are adjacent to the south end of the Walnut Creek TS claim block and are also named the TS claims. These claims occupy fractional land areas open to location by federal lode claim

We are required to pay annual rentals for our Arizona State Land Department (“ASLD”) Mineral Exploration Permits (“AZ MEP”) at our Tombstone Hay Mountain Project in the State of Arizona. A mineral exploration permit is permission from ASLD to prospect and explore for minerals on State Trust land. Exploration is any activity conducted for the purpose of determining the existence of a valuable mineral deposit, such as: geologic mapping, drilling, geochemical sampling, and geophysical surveys. Prior to exploration, the Plan of Operations must be approved by ASLD. The permitting process for an exploration permit takes a minimum of sixty (60) days. If the application is approved, the initial rent is $2 per acre. If renewed, no additional rents are due for the second year. Rents are set at $1 per acre for years 3 thru 5. Work expenditure requirements are: $10 per acre for years 1-2; and $20 per acre for years 3-5. Removal of any minerals or materials from State Trust land without the appropriate lease or permit is prohibited. The permit is valid for one year from the due date of the rental and bond. If renewal requirements are met, the permit can be renewed annually for up to five years. If discovery of a valuable mineral deposit is made, the permitee must apply for a mineral lease before actual mining activities can begin. A mineral lease permits the mining of minerals discovered under the exploration permit. The approval process takes a minimum of six (6) months. The mineral lease is issued for a term of twenty (20) years. Leases may be renewed for an additional term. Both rents and royalties are determined by appraisal. Royalties may be based on: 1) a fixed rate subject to annual adjustment; or 2) a sliding-scale rate which is linked to a commodity index price and the operation's break-even price. There is a statutory minimum royalty rate of 2% of gross value. These AZ MEPs require a reclamation bond of $3,000 which we currently hold. The first year’s rental has been paid for these MEPs and the escalating rental is due on the anniversary of the MEP each year. After the end of the 4th year, the MEPs must transition to a State Mineral Lease upon satisfaction of the State Mineral Inspector that economic indications of a minable deposit exist. After commencement of mining, the State of Arizona shall be paid a minimal net smelter return after taking into consideration any extenuating mining challenges royalty but not less than a 2% gross royalty. The rental period begins on September 30th through the following September 29th and rental payments are due by the first day of the rental period. We hold AZ MEP permits for 7,515 acres at our Tombstone project. We paid initial rental fees from the date of application through September 29, 2012 of $8,254. Required minimum work expenditures for the period ended September 29, 2014 are$157,578. The annual rentals due by September 30, 2014 to maintain the AZ MEP permits are $7,515.

With respect to the foregoing properties, additional approvals and authorizations may be required from other government agencies, depending upon the nature and scope of the proposed exploration program. The amount of these costs is not known at this time as we do not know the size, quality of any resource or reserve at this time, and it is extremely difficult to assess the impact of any capital expenditures on earnings or our competitive position.

Personnel

Currently we employ one full time geologist who is also our CEO, CFO, and Chairman of the Board, James Briscoe. We also employ one full time executive, one full time executive assistant/accountant, one as-needed PhD consulting geologist specializing in GIS computer mapping and database creation, one full time geo-tech, who is also our manager of field operations, one investor relations representative, and one CPA on an as needed basis. We hire consultants for investor relations, exploration and administrative functions also on an as needed basis.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

Our offices

We rent the premises for our principal office located at 5610 E Sutler Lane, Tucson, Arizona 85712. We rent this office space which is located in the home of our Chief Geologist and CEO for $522 per month plus a pro rata share of taxes and maintenance. Our employees work either from our principal office or from offices maintained in their homes.


9

We believe that our existing office facilities are adequate for our needs. Should we require additional space at that time, or prior thereto, we believe that such space can be secured on commercially reasonable terms.

Our warehouse

On June 1, 2011 we rented a warehouse located at Building No. 1, 7900 South Kolb Road, Tucson, Arizona 85706. We rent this warehouse space for $3,645 per month. The lease is in effect until May 31, 2014 with an option to extend for two additional years. In addition to using the warehouse for standard purposes, such as storage of our exploration equipment, supplies and samples, the warehouse space also includes office facilities for the use of field geologists and geotechs.

Our mineral claims

All of the Company’s claims for mineral properties are in good standing as of January 31, 2014.

North Pipes Super Project (“North Pipes” and “NPSP”):

We hold a 100% interest in 376 (unpatented) Federal lode mining claims strategically placed on the Arizona Strip. The 376 unpatented Federal lode mining claims with an area of 7,761 acres include breccia pipe targets (“Pipes”). Breccia pipes are cylindrical formations in the earth’s crust sometimes identified by a surface depression, or surface bump or no visible surface expression at all, and contain a high concentration of fragmented rock “breccia” sometimes cemented by uranium and other minerals. We plan to ascertain whether our North Pipes claims possess commercially viable deposits of uranium. Due to the moratorium of location of lode mining claims on the Arizona Strip and the low price of U3O8 we have no current exploration plans and will not until the uranium price increases and the moratorium expires in about 15 years. We intend to hold a strategic position until such time that it is economically feasible to mount a new drilling program. We want to take advantage of more than a million dollars of exploration data which was acquired by Liberty Star when uranium prices were higher and before the moratorium was instituted.

North Pipes is located on the Arizona Strip, which is located approximately 10 miles south of the town of Fredonia, AZ. Access is by Hwy 389 and various dirt roads, some of which are maintained and some that are very primitive. 4WD vehicles are necessary for the primitive dirt roads. Some of the claims cannot be driven to and require hiking to their location or under an approved plan of operation it is possible to create an access road.

Our NPSP claims are undeveloped. There are neither open-pit nor underground mines, nor is there any mining plant or equipment located on the properties. There is no power supply to the properties. We have not found any mineral resources on any of our claims. The Arizona Strip was an active exploration district in the 1970’s and 1980’s with multiple producing uranium mines. No evidence of actual development work has been found on any of our properties and no significant exploration activities have been performed on our NPSP claims since 2008 due to many factors including the lowered uranium prices and the moratorium on locating claims. Below is a summary of prior exploration activities performed on our NPSP claims:

Geophysics: We have completed PEM (Pulse Electro-magnetic) geophysical surveys on some of our NPSP claims. Two types of PEM surveys were conducted in 2007: (i) Downhole PEM and (ii) In-Loop PEM. We have also used CSAMT and NSAMT (Controlled and Natural Source Audio-range Magneto Tellurics), run on the ground and executed by Zonge Engineering of Tucson AZ. A survey was also completed on an approximately six square mile area by VTEM helicopter borne electromagnetic survey along right angle crossing grid lines spaced 100 meters apart, which was performed by Geotech of Aurora, Ontario, Canada. Significant anomalies resulted from this survey. Preliminary drilling on one of Liberty Star’s anomalies intersected strong breccia, alteration and pyrite mineralization. The holes did not penetrate down to the elevation where uranium mineralization would be expected, but are targets for future work. As of this date we have not developed any uranium resources on the Arizona Strip.

Stereoscopic geologic color air photo interpretation (photo-geology): Stereoscopic geologic interpretation of 1:24,000 (1 inch = 2,000 feet) high resolution color air photographs were contracted for and completed by Dr. Karen Weinrich and Edward Ulmer, a Registered Professional Geologist. Dr. Weinrich worked on the Arizona Strip uranium bearing breccia pipes almost exclusively during her twenty three year tenure with the United States Geological Survey from which she is now retired. During this period of study she authored many professional papers on breccia pipes of the Grant Canyon area, and is considered a foremost expert on them. Mr. Ulmer worked on the Arizona Strip in the mid to late 1970s working on both imagery interpretation and surface geology.

Geologic field mapping on the surface: Geological field mapping was conducted in the fall of 2005 through 2007 by our staff geologists as well as contracted geologists. Approximately 180 of the breccia pipe target areas have been mapped in detail 1:5,000 (1 inch = 417 feet). Several detailed measured stratigraphic sections have also been completed.


10

Geochemical sampling: A comprehensive soil geochemical survey was completed in 2007. We have collected approximately 14,000 soil samples over all identifiable breccia pipes, both those with known ore and those that are yet to be proven by drilling. A strict chain of custody procedures were followed and quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) samples were inserted regularly into the sample stream. The samples were assayed for 63 elements. Assay analyses were conducted by a Certified Assay Lab, Acme Analytical Laboratories of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. We believe that these samples allow us to identify potential uranium bearing breccia pipes versus barren or non-uranium bearing breccia pipes.

Drilling: In 2007 a drilling program was undertaken using both rotary drilling and core drilling. Rotary drilling was contracted by Boart Longyear. Diamond core drilling was completed by Redwall Drilling Inc., a former wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Star. A total of 22 holes were drilled for a total of 16,226 feet of drilling. Important intersections of rock generally associated with producing breccia pipes were made. We did not intersect any ore mineralization during the drilling program.

Total costs including claim staking (initially in 2005), claim maintenance (see PART I ITEM1. Business. “Compliance with Government Regulation” in each Form 10K for the years ended January 31, 2006 through January 31, 2014) and a drilling program (exploratory) in calendar years 2007 and 2008, are $5,220,794.

Beginning in 2006, Certified Professional Geologist Dr Karen Wenrich and a dozen other well regarded geoscientists engaged in an exploratory program centering on the region’s breccia pipes. By the time Dr. Wenrich came to work on the North Pipes project, she had 27 years with the USGS working on breccia pipe research and was a member of a Nobel Peace Prize winning team of UN atomic science specialists. The Liberty Star team worked with high resolution color aerial photographs and other reconnaissance covering approximately 2,000 square miles to format geological maps of the terrain. In addition to geology, geophysics gamma ray spectroscopy, approximately 14,000 soil samples were collected and analyzed by a certified lab for 63 elements. These were located precisely as they were collected using GPS. The results were compiled and plotted using GIS software, and various contouring and interpretation techniques. Expenses included food and lodging and a daily commute of approximately 100 miles. Road conditions were extreme and resulted in vehicle expenses of approximately $2.00 per mile. Various contractors were used in claim staking, and other contract work in sample collection. Helicopters and light planes were used for various transportation tasks. Home office support also involved permanent and contract support.

Exploratory drilling includes costs of travel, food and lodging, payments on the drill rig, drill bits, fuel, drilling permits, and maintenance costs of the drill rig and of support vehicles. Also included are the costs of reclamation bonds and reclamation costs of lands disturbed by drilling, as well as the costs of conducting archaeological surveys to identify prehistoric remains of human habitation or human activity.

Currently there are no planned costs for the North Pipes Super Project unless commodity prices, specifically for uranium, increase sufficiently to make exploration financially tenable. The Moratorium on acquiring any additional land has also negatively affected the current investment climate for such work.

Big Chunk Super Project (“Big Chunk”) – Location, claims, geology and technical studies:

We hold a 100% interest in 54 State mining claims in the Iliamna region of Southwestern Alaska with an area of 7,680 acres, located on the north side of the Cook Inlet, approximately 265 miles southwest of the city of Anchorage, Alaska. We plan to ascertain whether the Big Chunk claims possess commercially viable deposits of copper, gold, molybdenum, silver, palladium, rhenium and zinc. Due to decisions made by the EPA regarding the nearby Pebble Deposit we have no immediate exploration plans, however, we intend to hold our land position until such a time we determine it is clear that exploration is economically viable again.

Our Big Chunk claims are undeveloped. Big Chunk is in the Iliamna region of Southwestern Alaska, located on the north side of the Cook Inlet, approximately 265 miles southwest of the city of Anchorage Alaska. The claims are located in a remote area of Southwestern Alaska near Lake Iliamna, Alaska’s largest lake. The claims are immediately adjacent and contiguous to the Pebble mine property and about 3 miles north east from the Pebble Porphyry copper, gold, molybdenum, silver, palladium, rhenium and zinc mineral deposit which is reportedly one of the largest of its type in the world. Two or more Air Taxi services connect to the village of Iliamna roughly 240 miles distant from Anchorage. At Iliamna, approximately 27 miles southeast of Big Chunk, there is a major regional airport, Fixed Base Operator (FBO), fuel, bush planes and, periodically, helicopters for rent with pilot. Air is the only practical way to the property either by float plane, ski plane in the winter, or helicopter. Ground travel is unsafe and impractical in the summer due to the dense population of black bears, grizzly bears, bogs and small lakes. Winter access by snow machine could be possible, although difficult.

In 2011, the Company engaged the international firm of SRK Consulting, Engineering and Scientist of Tucson (“SRK”) through its Tucson, Arizona office to prepare a Technical Report in the same format of the internationally accepted Canadian National Instrument NI 43-101. Because the Company’s stock does not trade on any Canadian stock exchanges, this Technical Report was not submitted to SEDAR, the electronic system for the official filing of documents by public companies and investment funds across Canada. In their report which encompasses some 194 pages of technical data, they compared the Northern Dynasty NI 43-101 geologic and drill data, published on the Northern Dynasty web site in its entirety, to results of Liberty Star’s technical work on the Big Chunk ground. They concluded amongst other things: (1) Twenty seven scout diamond drill holes drilled by Liberty Star in 2004 – 2005 intersected the same rock types as were intersected in the exploration drilling on the Pebble deposit (2) All drill holes, which were spaced over some 500 square miles, intersected the outer shell or propylitic halo of multiple porphyry copper systems, which is the model co-developed by our director, Dr. John Guilbert; and (3) Copper and molybdenum sulfides along with low grade gold were intersected in two drill holes in the White Sox target area. “This mineralization and associated alteration may indicate a porphyry Cu-Mo system” (SRK Big Chunk Technical Report- page 109, 11.2 Results of Drilling, available on the Liberty Star Web Site. The area of the Big Chunk Claims is largely covered by glacial debris, soil, and tundra. There are no open-pit or underground mines, nor is there any mining plant or equipment located on the properties. There is no power supply to the properties. There is no road access to the properties, but such public road access is planned for the Pebble mine, and as currently planned, that road will cross the Company’s land, and be accessible for the Company’s use. Extensive geotechnical data on the Big Chunk claims has been acquired between startup of 2004 and the current time. Extensive geophysical data has been acquired by the Company of several types, which includes the following:

(1) an extensive air borne magnetic survey flown by McPhar Geosurveys Ltd., Newmarket, Ontario Canada over 18,243 line kilometers covering 3,646 square kilometers using: (a) a draped survey with a mean elevation of the instrument above the terrain of 200 meters (600 feet) feet; (b) a line spacing of 250 meters (800 feet); (c) and a sample interval of 8 meters (26.4 feet). State of the art magnetometer, GPS, radar altimeter, and computer recording of data were used and in our opinion no other survey of this quality and precision is available in the area.


11

(2) one hundred twenty seven linear miles of Induced Polarization (IP) was run by Zonge Engineering of Tucson AZ. Of necessity lines were brushed of all trees and undergrowth and all access was by helicopter, however, the lines themselves were done on the ground by foot. All data was recorded on appropriate computers, downloaded each evening and sent to the Zonge Office in Tucson and to our consulting geophysicist Mr. Jan Klein in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Mr. Klein supervised all IP and other geophysical surveys over the Pebble for Cominco who sold the Pebble Project to Northern Dynasty. Thus, we believe Mr. Klein has had more experience in the geophysics of the area, which includes over 2,000 square miles, than any other geophysicist. The results were interpreted and sent back to the Alaska headquarters every night.

(3) Liberty Star contracted with Geotech Limited of London, Ontario, Canada to run their ZTEM Electro Magnetic (EM) airborne survey equipment over the Big Chunk project. This thoroughly tested system can look down 2,000 meters (6,000 feet) in to the crust of the earth and detect sulfide mineralization associated with porphyry copper-gold systems, as well as other geologic features. This survey was completed in August 2009. The survey covered 315.2 sq kilometers (121.7 sq miles) and consisted of north-south lines spaced 250 meters apart on our Big Chunk Super Project mineral claims. In May 2010, Liberty Star received feedback from Geotech Ltd. that its interpretation showed at least 4 to 7 signatures that are consistent with porphyry copper responses. The 2D computer model shows typical low responsive areas, which could correspond to an ore mineral core zones with a surrounding responsive cylinders representing a pyrite halos typical of Porphyry copper systems. For control, Geotech flew a survey the day after completing the Big Chunk survey, over the Pebble mineral deposit. The anomalies on Big Chunk show strong similarities to the Pebble.

During the field seasons of 2004 and 2005 Liberty collected approximately eleven thousand geochemical samples. The sampling program was designed by both consulting geochemist, Shea Clark Smith, of MEG Laboratories in the Reno area of Nevada, and Liberty Chief Geologist, James Briscoe. The sampling program was based on many years of geochemical studies and sampling throughout the world by Mr. Smith and his Master’s Degree thesis on sampling tundra plants and detecting metals in their woody stems reflecting metals at depth. Further, Mr. Smith and Mr. Briscoe used this technique to locate buried porphyry copper deposits in the Silver Bell district (see discussion of the East Silver Bell Project in this report) near Tucson, Arizona in 1996 -1998. The methodology was conceived, discovered and proven in a well-known porphyry district south of Tucson, Arizona between the period 1950 to 1955. At Big Chunk the samples collected included: (1) stream sediment; (2) stream water; (3) pond and small-lake water; (4) soil samples; and (5) vegetation sampling new growth of woody plants. These samples were analyzed by Acme Labs, a Certified Assayer in Canada for 64 elements for each sample. For the eleven thousand samples, this resulted in approximately seven hundred thousand separate analyses including blanks, repeat and control samples part of the QA/QC (Quality Assurance Quality Control) procedures. Because of the overload worldwide in all assay labs at the time, turnaround time for the assays was up to three or more months. After receipt of the samples, they were processed using computer techniques and the results analyzed and interpreted. Known indicator elements, including porphyry copper-gold mineral center elements, formed typical porphyry copper center anomaly zones. Additionally, samples taken by Liberty Star over the Pebble deposit, with the permission of Northern Dynasty, indicated that mineral body to be detectable by these methods. The geochemical methodology was used by the US Geological Survey, under contract for the Pebble partnership over the Pebble mineral zone, and data was published in 2010. It was again shown to be effective in indicating the Pebble deposit mineralization at depth. The anomalies generated by both deep looking ZTEM and geochemistry by Liberty Star have been tested by published results from drilling in the Pebble mineral body. The same types of targets in the Liberty Star Big Chunk have yet to be tested by drilling.

We are unaware of any previous claim ownership anywhere on our Big Chunk claims in Alaska. No historical drilling resulting in mineral resources or reserves appears in the published literature concerning the property. Minor exploration was conducted by Teck Cominco Alaska, and Anaconda Mining Inc. The United States Geological Survey does not do exploration but they had done minor geological mapping in the north part of the Big Chunk caldera, along with widely spaced aeromag surveys in the same area. We are not aware of any prior exploration that was conducted on our Big Chunk claims in Alaska prior to January 10, 2004, when our aerial magnetic survey began.

We have not defined mineral resources on any of our claims at Big Chunk.

Letter Agreement and Secured Convertible Note with Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. With Respect to Big Chunk


12

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.

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 could earn a 60% interest in our Big Chunk and Bonanza Hills projects in Alaska (the “Joint Venture Claims”) by spending $10,000,000 on those properties over six years. The outstanding loan amounts from Northern Dynasty could be applied as part of Northern Dynasty’s earn-in requirements. Northern Dynasty’s minimum annual expenditures under the earn-in would be the minimum level necessary to keep the Joint Venture Claims in good standing. Northern Dynasty could elect to abandon the earn-in at any time on 30 days’ notice, so long as sufficient annual labor was performed, or a cash payment in lieu of labor was made, in order to fulfill the annual labor requirements for the Joint Venture Claims for a minimum of 12 months after termination of the earn-in.

On November 13, 2012, we signed a loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty which would have discharged the $3,730,174 principal balance and $972,617 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 transfer of 199 Alaska mining claims to Northern Dynasty’s subsidiary, U5 Resources. The transaction was not closed at that time, pending resolution to a lien placed by MBGS, LLC.. In March 2014 Liberty Star and Big Chunk entered into a settlement agreement with MBGS, LLC, following a resolution conference conducted in Anchorage, Alaska whereby all claims involving Northern Dynasty’s 199 claims recorded by MBGS, LLC were released. The company has now completed its loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty and discharged the principal balance and accrued interest for the 2010 Convertible Note and Northern Dynasty’s earn-in-rights are terminated.

Tombstone Super Project (“Tombstone”):

Our CEO and Chief Geologist, James Briscoe, has long experience in the Tombstone district, southeast Arizona, where he first worked in 1972. In the mid-1980s, he concluded that much earlier regional geologic work had reached erroneous conclusions and that Tombstone was a large and ancient (72 million years before the present – or Laramide in age) volcanic structure – a caldera. He brought this to the attention of the US Geological Survey caldera experts, who after study concluded that Briscoe was correct. Subsequently, more than seventeen calderas of various ages have been identified in Arizona by the US Geological survey, the Arizona Geological Survey and others. Such calderas of Laramide age are all associated with porphyry alteration and copper and associated mineralization; many of these have become very large copper mines. Studies by Mr. Briscoe over the years, and more recently using advanced technology, have indicated that alteration associated mineralization at Tombstone is much more extensive than originally thought. This alteration lies largely under cover and is indicated by geochemistry, geophysics and projection of known geology into covered areas.

We hold 99 unpatented standard Federal lode mining claims with an area of 1878.68 acres located due east and southeast of the town of Tombstone, Arizona. The Walnut Creek Project is located immediately east of the town of Tombstone. The Hay Mountain Project is located 6.5 miles southeast of Tombstone; access is by Hwy 89 and Davis Rd. We also hold Arizona State Mineral Exploration Permits (MEPs) covering (7,515 acres) or 11.74 square miles in the same area. We also hold an option to explore 33 unpatented standard Federal lode mining claims located in the same region. We also hold an option to explore 33 unpatented standard Federal lode mining claims (684 acres out of the total 1878.68 acres) located in the same region. On April 29, 2008 Liberty Star announced that it had leased, with an option to purchase, three properties from JABA US Inc. in Arizona and Nevada, USA. Liberty Star President James A. Briscoe controls JABA US INC and Dr. J. M. Guilbert, Director of the Company, holds a small stock position as well. The properties in Arizona are part of the Tombstone and the 26 claims East Silver Bell projects. The option covering the property in Nevada was sold in October, 2008 to NPX Metals. Proceeds from that sale were loaned immediately back to Liberty Star by Mr. Briscoe. For the remaining claims, according to the option agreement, Liberty Star could earn up to 100% interest by keeping up annual assessment work and spending $175,000 in exploration expenditures on the properties between April 2008 and January 1, 2011. This provision payment of assessment and related expenses has been met and option agreement has been maintained over the Tombstone and East Silver Bell Claims.

At Hay Mountain (HM), we plan to ascertain whether the HM lode mining claims and AZ MEPs possess commercially viable deposits of copper, gold, molybdenum, silver, zinc, rare earth metals and other valuable metals. We have a phased exploration plan that involves diamond core drilling of multiple holes over targets determined by analysis of geochemical sampling and ZTEM electromagnetic and magnetic survey. Initial phase 1 drilling is planned to take approximately one year. Should results indicate the viability of the project, additional phased work, both exploration and development, is planned over the course of seven total years to define the nature and size of an ore body(s) and move toward mining. Any exploration plans are dependent on acquiring suitable funding. No part of the phased program is currently funded.

The Tombstone claims are undeveloped. However significant amounts of aeromagnetic surveys, IP (Induced Polarization Surveys), geologic mapping by the USGS and others, and geochemical surveys including soil, rock and vegetation sampling have been conducted at various times by various parties, over the last 60 years. When compiled and analyzed these various data suggest a compelling series of anomalies that are typical of buried, dirt and rock covered porphyry copper system(s). Below is a summary of prior exploration activities performed on our Tombstone claims:

Technical Report: In mid-March 2011, Liberty Star contracted SRK to prepare three (3) Technical studies and Reports in a form similar to mineral reports prescribed under NI 43-101. Members of SRK’s engineering/scientific staff supervised by a Qualified Person as defined under NI 43-101 and SRK’s Tucson Office Principal Geologist, Corolla Hoag, and geologist Dr. Jan Rasmussen have visited the Tombstone property. This information was combined with historic technical reports going back to 1878 and more recent data up to August 2011 (the date of their reports). The three Technical Reports are entitled: (1) Walnut Creek Exploration Report, Tombstone District, Arizona –August 31, 2011, 147 pages; (2) The Tombstone Caldera South Exploration Report, Tombstone District, Arizona –August 31, 2011, 144 pages; and (3) Hay Mountain Exploration Report, Tombstone District, Arizona – August 31 2011, 155 pages. Because the Company’s stock does not trade on any Canadian stock exchanges, these three Technical Reports were not submitted to SEDAR, the electronic system for the official filing of documents by public companies and investment funds across Canada. We had also requested that SRK prepare a report on the Tombstone Consolidated Mines patented claims. These claims covered the entirety of historic productive area of the Tombstone mines which date to their discovery in 1877. However, before that report could be completed a competitor acquired a lease on those lands. These Technical Reports thoroughly summarize and illustrate the salient geotechnical data of the Tombstone Mining District covering about 250 square miles and present much data in computer map format. In such context, they analyze Liberty Star’s exploration programs as related to the entire area, make estimates and recommend execution of proposed Company exploration programs. Because of competitive pressure and the unique nature of the data which includes 40+ years of private report compilation by James Briscoe, our CEO, these reports are considered confidential and will not be released for the foreseeable future.

Geochemical sampling at the Hay Mountain Project: In 2011 and early 2012 we collected nearly 1,800 rock, soil and vegetation samples over 621 sample sites over approximately 14 square miles centered on the Hay Mountain property. These samples have been assayed for 63 elements generating about 113,000 analyses. The samples were prepared by MEG Inc. and have been shipped to ALS Minerals (ALS-Chemex) a Certified (under NI 43-101 criteria and approved by regulatory processes) geochemical analysis lab in Vancouver, British Columbia. Assay results are being sent to our Tucson office and when all assays are received our geology team will be able to generate computer analyses that allow interpretation of the data.

ZTEM EM Survey: We have requested and have received a cost estimate from Geotech of Aurora (Toronto area) Ontario, Canada, which is the only purveyor of this helicopter borne electromagnetic (EM) geophysical method. This geophysical method has the ability to “look down” into the crust of the earth about 2,000 meters (6,000 feet) and detect sulfides which may be associated with porphyry copper systems. Test work over known Safford, Arizona porphyry copper deposits along with thousands of verifying drill holes show the geometry of such mineral systems can be determined, thus identifying whether it is a porphyry copper system or some other mineral system. When combined with our geochemical data, we can determine the position of the copper-moly center of the system and design our drill program to efficiently test and define mineralization. We flew ZTEM in July 2013 and the analysis report was received in February 2014.

East Silver Bell Porphyry Copper Project (“East Silver Bell” or “ESB”):

Located northwest of Tucson, Arizona, these claims currently are within the Ironwood National Monument, which was established after the claims were staked and validated by numerous drill holes in addition to extensive technical studies. We plan to ascertain whether the East Silver Bell claims possess commercially viable deposits of copper. We hold an option to explore 26 unpatented standard Federal lode mining claims with an area of 536.03 acres located in the same region. The optioned mineral claims are owned by JABA US Inc., a corporation in which two of our directors are owners. On April 29, 2008 Liberty Star announced that it had leased, with an option to purchase, three properties from JABA US Inc. in Arizona and Nevada, USA. The properties in Arizona, are part of the Tombstone (and the 26 claims) East Silverbell projects. The option covering the property in Nevada was sold in October, 2008 to NPX Metals, and the proceeds were paid by JABA US Inc. as a loan to Liberty Star. According to the option agreement, Liberty Star can earn up to 100% interest by keeping up annual assessment work and spending $175,000 in exploration expenditures on the properties between April 2008 and January 1, 2011. This provision has been met for the assessment work and other related expense payments, and even though the work commitment is now in arrears, the option agreement has been maintained over the Tombstone and East Silver Bell Claims.

26 ESB Claims- 536.03 acres

Located approximately 30 miles northwest of Tucson, Arizona, 18 miles from the Avra Valley road off ramp and then 18 miles west, just north of that road on dirt roads (accessible with a 2 wheel drive vehicle), the claims currently are within the Ironwood Forest National Monument, which was created after the claims were staked, underwent detailed geochem and geophysical studies and drilled with numerous drill holes revealing a mineralized body. We plan to ascertain whether the East Silverbell claims possess commercially viable deposits of copper. Due to difficulty of doing work on the Ironwood Forest National Monument, which was created after drill definition of a mineral body on our claims, we are negotiating with an adjacent fee-simple, land-owner on which half of the mineral zone lies, to explore in detail to develop a viable ore body.

The East Silver Bell claims are undeveloped. The ESB block of claims were staked circa 1994 about five miles east of the ASARCO Solvent-Extraction-Electro-Winning (SXEW) plant. The East Silver Bell claims are directly adjacent and contiguous to the ASARCO Patented (fee simple) lands. Circa 1994 JABA (US) Inc. compiled geophysics –consisting of existing, widely spaced airborne magnetics, collected soil and vegetation geochemical samples, performed detailed photo interpretation from high resolution color aerial photography, mapped surface geology, breccia pipes and performed detailed mapping and interpretation of leached capping and performed very closely spaced man borne magnetic surveys over alteration and projection of the edge of the Silver Bell caldera and associated mineral belt that includes the Silver Bell porphyry copper mines that could be seen on the color air photos. The surface magnetic survey was interpreted by geophysicist Edward DeRidder, who pointed out a magnetic low that he interpreted as a porphyry copper magnetic low. Subsequently, north-south Induced Polarization (IP) lines were run and interpreted by Zonge engineering, to show a sulfide response at 900 to 1,000 feet below the surface. All of this data was plotted in 3D images showing overlapping and mutually reinforcing geochemical, ground magnetic and IP geophysics, and geologic- alteration mapped anomalies. Half of this responsive area lies on the adjacent ASARCO ground and half lies on JABA (US) ground. Subsequent to these studies, the ground was lease-optioned to Valarie Gold Exploration Inc., (Valarie) a Canadian exploration company. They drilled 6 holes to a predetermined depth of 600 feet, using a rotary drill and recovered drill chips, sampled at 5 foot intervals. The drilling penetrated and recovered classic chalcocite leached capping typical of that material occurring over ore bodies in the Silver Bell mines of North Silver Bell, El Tiro and Oxide open pit mines. Geochemical assays of the cuttings showed three to four relict ghost copper enriched zones to the final arbitrary depth of six hundred feet. These holes did not penetrate the leached chalcocite capping rock and did not enter sulfides. Valarie relinquished their lease. Latter Kennecott Copper Corp. optioned the claims and drilled three rotary drill holes. Of these holes two twisted off the drill bits at shallow depth and had to be abandoned while in the leached chalcocite capping. One hole penetrated to a depth of 1,000 feet but poor sampling procedures negated any meaningful data from this hole, when primary samples were irretrievably lost. These two drill attempts were predictably not successful but geochemistry from the Valarie drill holes did show shadow geochemical copper enrichment indicating chalcocite enrichment in the sulfide blanket below and the Kennecott effort did recover some chalcocite (enriched copper sulfide) Circa 1998 the Ironwood National Monument was created over JABA’s valid mining claims. The surface of these claims cannot be used to extract the copper mineral body below by the open pit mining method. Since half of the of the geophysically, geochemically, geologically, alteration indicated mineral body is located on ASARCO patented land and because the ASARCO SXEW plant is only five miles to the west, it is believed that this mineral body can be extracted from the ASARCO property by underground – in situ leach technology at some point in the future. To date we have not identified any ore reserves on the East Silver Bell Project.

We have not found any mineral resources on any of our claims.

Sampling Protocols for all projects

Liberty Star trains all employees/contractors conducting sample collection to use a handheld digital mobile device to record all aspects of each individual sample. The handheld mobile device leads the sampler through a series of dropdown menu windows with various description capabilities and the ability to record a GPS coordinate. Data from the device is uploaded to our database daily. Liberty Star also uses professionally created video training to teach samplers the proper techniques of obtaining a proper sample whether it is soil, rock or vegetation and instruction on avoiding contamination. After samples are collected they are stored in a secure location under lock and key until they are shipped via FedEx or UPS using chain of custody guidelines to a professional sample prep lab in Washoe Valley, Nevada run by Shea Clark Smith, MSc/ Geochemist. Mr. Smith prepares the samples by crushing, mixing, pulverizing and homogenizing. Then a 200 gram sample is scientifically split for shipment to a Certified Assay Laboratory of each original sample. Standards, blanks and duplicates are added to the sample stream, including such Quality Assurance Quality Control (QA/QC) every 10th assay sample. Before being sent to a certified assay lab using ICP-MS analysis the samples are randomized. Once Liberty Star gets the analysis data back from the laboratory, checks for quality assurance and control are made using data from the blanks, standards and duplicates. The results are sent to Liberty Star by email and a paper copy mailed for verification and as a permanent record. The data are then de- randomized and processed for interpretation by various software programs designed for the purpose.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

A civil action was pending in the Alaska Superior Court in Anchorage, Alaska at 1.31.2014, that concerned 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 were requesting a judicial determination that certain lien claim notices recorded by a party named MBGS, LLC, against the mining claims were void; and MBGS was seeking an order enforcing the lien claims. In March 2014, prior to trial date, a settlement mediation in Alaska was held and the civil action was settled. We currently have no outstanding litigation.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES.

Under Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and under the SEC's recently adopted Item 104 of Regulation S-K, each operator of a coal or other mine is required to include disclosures regarding certain mine safety results in its periodic reports filed with the SEC. The operation of our mine(s) that may be developed in the future would be subject to regulation by the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977. We do not own any mines in the United States and as a result, this information is not required.

On December 9, 2013, we received additional consideration of $75,000 pursuant to the terms of the August 2013 Note. As of January 31, 2014 we did not repay any portion of the note before 90 days from the effective date, and since the 180 days hadn’t lapsed since the initial payment occurred, the note wasn’t convertible by the holder.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. We refer you to the cautionary statement regarding forward-looking statements included at the beginning of this annual report.

Our consolidated audited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Overview

We are an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in the States of Arizona and Alaska. Claims in the State of Alaska are held in the name of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Big Chunk Corp. Claims in the State of Arizona are held in the name of Liberty Star. We use the term “Super Project” to indicate a project in which numerous mineral targets have been identified within a mineral province such as the Arizona Strip or a large structural feature such as calderas which occur at Big Chunk, East Silver Bell, and Tombstone, any one or more of which could potentially contain commercially viable quantities of minerals.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $55,089 as of January 31, 2014. We had negative working capital of $6,202,731 as of January 31, 2014. We had cash inflows from financing activities of $1,161,453 for the year ended January 31, 2014. We will need additional funds in order to proceed with our planned exploration program.

Letter Agreement and Secured Convertible Notes 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 was $4,000,000 and bore 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. Principal balance of the Convertible Notes at January 31, 2014 and 2013 was $3,730,174. Accrued interest on the Convertible Notes at January 31, 2014 and 2013 was $1,465,059 and $972,617, respectively.

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 and Bonanza Hills projects in Alaska (the “Joint Venture Claims”) by spending $10,000,000 on those properties over six years. The outstanding loan amounts from Northern Dynasty may be applied as part of Northern Dynasty’s earn-in requirements. Northern Dynasty’s minimum annual expenditures under the earn-in would be the minimum level necessary to keep the Joint Venture Claims in good standing. Northern Dynasty may elect to abandon the earn-in at any time on 30 days’ notice, so long as sufficient annual labor is performed, or a cash payment in lieu of labor is made, in order to fulfill the annual labor requirements for the Joint Venture Claims for a minimum of 12 months after termination of the earn-in. To date, no joint venture agreement has been agreed upon and as such, Northern Dynasty may demand payment of the funds due under the Convertible Notes at any time upon 45 days notice.

The Convertible Notes are secured against our Big Chunk and Bonanza Hills property. The Convertible Notes are due for repayment 45 days after the earlier to occur of: (i) Northern Dynasty’s completion of its earn-in to the Joint Venture Claims unless it has elected to deem the entire outstanding balance of the Convertible Note (including interest thereon) to be part of the earn-in expenditure requirements and (ii) termination of Northern Dynasty’s earn-in right by voluntary abandonment provided that $1,000,000 in expenditures has been made; or (iii) termination of Northern Dynasty’s earn-in right on account of a superior third party joint venture offer.

Provided a minimum of $1,000,000 has been expended by Northern Dynasty on earn in expenses, the Convertible Notes will be convertible until repaid or deemed repaid, into common shares of our company at the 5 day volume weighted average trading price immediately prior to Northern Dynasty giving a notice of conversion less the maximum allowable discount applicable as if our shares were listed on the TSX Venture Exchange.

On November 14, 2012, we signed a loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty which would have discharged the $3,730,174 principal balance and $972,617 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 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 January 31, 2014, pending resolution of the lien claims. Northern Dynasty takes the position that the settlement is not complete while the lien claims are outstanding. In March 2014 Liberty Star and Big Chunk entered into a settlement agreement with MBGS, LLC, following a resolution conference conducted in Anchorage, Alaska whereby all lien claims for the Northern Dynasty transfer were released. As a result of those claims released by MBGS, LLC, in May 2014 the company completed its loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty and discharged the principal balance and accrued interest for the 2010 Convertible Note which also terminated Northern Dynasty’s earn-in-rights.

Financing Agreement with Fairhills Capital Offshore Ltd.

On January 19, 2012, we entered into a financing agreement (the “Fairhills Agreement”) with Fairhills Capital Offshore Ltd. (“Fairhills Capital”), whereby Fairhills 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 Fairhills Capital. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Fairhills Agreement and a registration rights agreement entered into concurrently (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), we may, in our sole discretion, deliver a notice to Fairhills Capital which states the dollar amount which we intend to sell to Fairhills Capital on a certain date. The amount that we shall be entitled to sell to Fairhills 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 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 Fairhills Capital receives our notice of sale. The shares of common stock that we sell to Fairhills Capital must be registered stock, among other conditions of investment.

In connection with the Investment Agreement, we also entered into a registration rights agreement with Fairhills. Pursuant to this registration rights agreement, we registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission 185,000,000 shares of the common stock underlying the Investment Agreement.

On November 13, 2012, we signed a loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty which would have discharged the $3,730,174 principal balance and $972,617 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 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 was a dispute with Northern Dynasty regarding the effect of the liens, we had not recorded the settlement transaction as of January 31, 2014, pending resolution of the lien claims. Northern Dynasty took the position that the settlement was not complete while the lien claims were outstanding.

In March 2014 Liberty Star and Big Chunk entered into a settlement agreement with MBGS, LLC, following a resolution conference conducted in Anchorage, Alaska whereby all lien claims for the Northern Dynasty transfer were released. As a result of those claims released by MBGS, LLC, in May 2014 the company completed its loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty and discharged the principal balance and accrued interest for the 2010 Convertible Note which also terminated Northern Dynasty’s earn-in-rights.

In February, March and April, 2013, we issued 22,874,405 shares for gross proceeds of $200,000 related to the investment agreement with Deer Valley Management, LLC.

In May, June and July, 2013, we issued 31,270,958 shares for gross proceeds of $255,000 related to the investment agreement with Deer Valley Management, LLC.

As of October 31, 2013, we received the final payment for this transaction, plus $5,000 from Deer Valley Management, LLC for the inconvenience of paying late. In August 2013, we decided to terminate the investment agreement with Deer Valley Management, LLC due to their violation of the payment terms pursuant to the investment agreement. As of the time of the termination of the investment agreement, we had issued a total of 113,815,732 and had received gross proceeds of $1,635,000. No further shares issuances to Deer Valley Management, LLC are expected to occur.

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.

On December 9, 2013, we received additional consideration of $75,000 pursuant to the terms of the August 2013 Note. As of January 31, 2014 we did not repay any portion of the note before 90 days from the effective date, and since the 180 days hadn’t lapsed since the initial payment occurred, the note wasn’t convertible by the holder.

Presentation of Financial Information

Our consolidated financial statements for the period ended January 31, 2014 reflect financial information for the twelve month period ending January 31, 2014, as well as from inception through January 31, 2014 and for the twelve-month period ended January 31, 2013.

Since we have not generated any revenue, we have included a reference to our ability to continue as a going concern in connection with our consolidated financial statements for the years ended January 31, 2014 and 2013. Our accumulated stockholders’ equity (deficit) at January 31, 2014, was $(6,159,649) and the net loss for the year ended January 31, 2014 was $2,318,047. All of our exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

These 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 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.

In order to continue as a going concern, we require additional financing. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, we would likely be unable to realize the carrying value of our assets reflected in the balances set out in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements 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 this Form 10-K. 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 period ended January 31, 2014. Our total stockholders’ equity (deficit) at January 31, 2014 was $(6,159,649).

These 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 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 a proven mineral resource 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.

Convertible promissory notes

We reviewed the convertible promissory notes and the related subscription agreements to determine the appropriate reporting within the financial statements. We report convertible promissory notes as liabilities at their carrying value less unamortized discounts in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance. We bifurcate conversion options and detachable common stock purchase warrants and report them as liabilities at fair value at each reporting period when required in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance. No gain or loss is reported when the notes are converted into shares of our common stock in accordance with the note’s terms.


22

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.

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 reappointed James Briscoe as president of our company.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. and its subsidiaries (an exploration stage company) (collectively, the “Company”) as of January 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position Star Uranium & Metals Corp. and its subsidiaries as of January 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company is in the exploration stage, has suffered recurring losses from operations, and requires additional funds for further exploratory activity prior to attaining a revenue generating status. In addition, the Company may not find sufficient ore reserves to be commercially mined. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

LIBERTY STAR URANIUM & METALS CORP.
(AN EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – Organization

Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (the “Company”, “we” or “Liberty Star”) was formerly Liberty Star Gold Corp. and formerly Titanium Intelligence, Inc. (“Titanium”). Titanium was incorporated on August 20, 2001 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On February 5, 2004 we commenced operations in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties business. Big Chunk Corp. (“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. Redwall Drilling Inc. (“Redwall”) was our wholly owned subsidiary and was incorporated on August 31, 2007 in the State of Arizona. Redwall performed drilling services on the Company’s mineral properties. Redwall ceased drilling activities in July 2008 and was dissolved on March 30, 2010. In April 2007, we changed our name to Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. We are considered to be an exploration stage company, as we have not generated any revenues from operations.

These consolidated financial statements include the results of operations and cash flows of Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Big Chunk and Redwall, from the dates of acquisition. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions were eliminated upon consolidation.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) with the on-going assumption that we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business. However, certain conditions noted below currently exist which raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Our operations have primarily been funded by the issuance of common stock and debt. Continued operations are dependent on our ability to complete equity financings or generate profitable operations in the future. Management’s plan in this regard is to secure additional funds through future equity financings, joint venture agreements or debt. Such financings may not be available, or may not be available on reasonable terms.

The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company's consolidated financial statements. Such consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in all material respects, and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The significant accounting policies adopted by the Company are as follows:

Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The valuation of stock-based compensation, classification and valuation of common stock purchase warrants, classification and value of embedded conversion options, value of beneficial conversion features, valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, the determination of useful lives and recoverability of depreciable assets, accruals, and contingencies are significant estimates made by management. It is at least reasonably possible that a change in these estimates may occur in the near term.


30

Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Big Chunk and Redwall, from the dates of acquisition, February 5, 2004 and August 31, 2007, respectively. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Cash and cash equivalents
We consider cash held at banks and all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts which, for periods of time, may exceed federally insured limits. At January 31, 2014 and 2013, we had cash in bank deposit accounts that exceeded federally insured limits of $0 and $0, respectively.

Mineral claim costs
We account for costs incurred to acquire, maintain and explore mineral properties as a charge to expense in the period incurred until the time that a proven mineral resource 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.

Long-lived Assets
Property and equipment is stated at cost. We capitalize all purchased equipment over $500 with a useful life of more than one year. Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are stated at cost and are amortized over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is shorter. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred while betterments or renewals are capitalized. Property and equipment is reviewed periodically for impairment. The estimated useful lives range from 3 to 7 years.

We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of a long-lived asset group to be held and used in operations is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group. If such asset group is considered to be impaired, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds its fair value. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less the costs of disposal.

Convertible promissory notes
We report convertible promissory notes as liabilities at their carrying value less unamortized discounts, which approximates fair value. We bifurcate conversion options and detachable common stock purchase warrants and report them as liabilities at fair value at each reporting period when required in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance. When convertible promissory notes are converted into shares of our common stock in accordance with the debt’s terms, no gain or loss is recognized. We account for inducements to convert as an expense in the period incurred, included in debt conversion expense.

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 estimate fair value.

Environmental expenditures
Our operations have been and may in the future be affected from time to time in varying degree by changes in environmental regulations, including those for future removal and site restoration costs. The likelihood of new regulations and their overall effect upon us are not predictable. We provide for any reclamation costs in accordance with the accounting standards codification section 410-30. It is management’s opinion that we are not currently exposed to significant environmental and reclamation liabilities and have recorded no reserve for environmental and reclamation expenditures as of January 31, 2014 and 2013.


31

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
The Company measures and discloses certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Authoritative guidance defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Authoritative guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Income taxes
Income taxes are recorded using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled. The effect on future tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that enactment occurs. To the extent that the Company does not consider it more likely than not that a future tax asset will be recovered, it provides a valuation allowance against the excess. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits, if any, are classified as additional income taxes in the statement of operations. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local examinations by tax authorities for years before 2009.

Net loss per share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share takes into consideration shares of common stock outstanding (computed under basic loss per share) and potentially dilutive shares of common stock that are not anti-dilutive. At January 31, 2014 and 2013, potentially dilutive instruments were not included in the determination of diluted loss per share as their effect was anti-dilutive.

Statement Presentation
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.

Recently issued accounting standards
There are no recent pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 3 – Going concern

The Company is in the exploration stage, has incurred losses from operations, 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. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 4– Mineral claims

At January 31, 2014 we held a 100% interest in 376 standard Federal lode mining claims on the Colorado Plateau Province of Northern Arizona (the “North Pipes Claims”).

At January 31, 2014 we held a 100% interest in 99 standard Federal lode mining claims located in the Tombstone region of Arizona. 33 Federal lode mining claims are owned by JABA US Inc, an Arizona Corporation in which two of our directors are owners and 66 Federal lode mining claims belong to Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. At January 31, 2014 we held Arizona State Land Department Mineral Exploration Permits covering 4,126.9 acres in the Tombstone region of Arizona.

At January 31, 2014 we held an option to explore 26 standard Federal Lode mining claims located in the East Silver Bell region of northwest Tucson, Arizona. The mineral claims are owned by JABA US Inc., an Arizona Corporation in which two of our directors are owners.

At January 31, 2014 we held a 100% interest in 54 Alaska State mining claims in the Iliamna region of Southwestern Alaska, located on the north side of the Cook Inlet, approximately 200 miles southwest of the city of Anchorage, Alaska (the “Big Chunk Claims”). The transaction for 199 claims transferred to Northern Dynasty in conjunction with our loan settlement agreement has now closed, and is no longer pending.

Title to mineral claims involves certain inherent risks due to difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims as well as potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyance history characteristic of many mineral properties.

All of the Company’s claims for mineral properties are in good standing as of January 31, 2014.

NOTE 5 – Property and equipment

NOTE 7 – Convertible promissory notes

We issued convertible promissory notes in private placements of our securities to institutional investors pursuant to exemptions from registration set out in Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933.

On July 15, 2010 we issued a secured convertible promissory note bearing interest at a rate of 10% per annum compounded monthly (the “Convertible Note”) to Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd (“Northern Dynasty”). During the year ended January 31, 2012 the agreement with Northern Dynasty was amended to issue additional secured convertible promissory notes totaling $730,174 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 the earn-in option and joint venture agreement with Northern Dynasty. Principal balance of the Convertible Notes at January 31, 2014 and 2013 was $3,730,174. Accrued interest on the Convertible Notes at January 31, 2014 and 2013 was $1,465,059 and $972,617, respectively.

As part of the transaction noted above, Northern Dynasty could 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. The borrowings from Northern Dynasty could be applied as part of Northern Dynasty’s earn-in requirements. Northern Dynasty’s minimum annual expenditures under the earn-in would be the minimum level necessary to keep the Joint Venture Claims in good standing. Northern Dynasty could elect to abandon the earn-in at any time on 30 days’ notice, so long as sufficient annual labor was performed, or a cash payment in lieu of labor was made, in order to fulfill the annual labor requirements for the Joint Venture Claims for a minimum of 12 months after termination of the earn-in. As of January 31, 2014, no such notice by Northern Dynasty has been received.

On November 14, 2012, we signed a loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty which would have discharged the $3,730,174 principal balance and $972,617 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 before the transfer could be completed, we have not recorded the settlement transaction as of January 31, 2014, pending resolution of the lien claims. In March 2014 Liberty Star and Big Chunk entered into a settlement agreement with MBGS, LLC, following a resolution conference conducted in Anchorage, Alaska whereby all Northern Dynasty claims recorded by MBGS, LLC were released. As a result of the claims release by MBGS, LLC, in May 2014 the company completed its loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty and discharged the principal balance and accrued interest for the 2010 Convertible Note and terminated Northern Dynasty’s earn-in-rights.

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. On December 9, 2013, we received additional consideration of $75,000 pursuant to the terms of the August 2013 Note. As of January 31, 2014 we did not repay any portion of the note before 90 days from the effective date, and since the 180 days hadn’t lapsed since the initial payment occurred, the note wasn’t convertible by the holder. As of April 21, 2014, $186,480 had been converted into shares of our Common stock pursuant to the conversion terms of the agreement.


34

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, discounted at issuance to the face value of $225,000. 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. As of January 31, 2014, we have not made any repayments on this convertible note and the note has not been converted.

NOTE 8 – 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.

In December 2012 and January 2013, we issued 7,359,399 units, at prices ranging from $0.0116 to $0.0156 per unit, to contractors who had provided services, directly or indirectly, on our Alaska properties.

We issued these shares pursuant to an exemption from registration set out in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The remaining 855,314 common stock purchase warrants from May 2007 expired on May 11, 2012 without exercise.

In March 2012, we sold 2,000,000 units at a price of $0.02844 per unit to one investor for gross proceeds of $56,880.

In March 2012, one investor exercised 84,615 of the May 2007 common stock purchase warrants using the cashless exercise provision. The cashless exercise provision allows the investor, if the fair market value of one share of common stock is greater than the exercise price, to elect to receive shares equal to the value of the warrant less a portion of the warrant that is cancelled using a specific formula. We issued 21,757 shares of common stock and cancelled 62,858 common stock purchase warrants pursuant to the cashless exercise provision. No cash proceeds were received.

In February 2012 one investor exercised 2,646,199 of the August 2009 common stock purchase warrants using the cashless exercise provision. The cashless exercise provision allows the investor, if the fair market value of one share of common stock is greater than the exercise price, to elect to receive shares equal to the value of the warrant less a portion of the warrant that is cancelled using a specific formula. We issued 2,500,000 shares of common stock and cancelled 146,199 common stock purchase warrants pursuant to the cashless exercise provision. No cash proceeds were received.

In December 2012 and January 2013, we issued 7,359,399 units, at prices ranging from $0.0116 to $0.0156 per unit, to contractors who had provided services, directly or indirectly, on our Alaska properties. Each unit consisted of one common share of our company and one non-transferable common stock purchase warrant. Each common stock purchase warrant entitles the investors to purchase one additional common share of our company at prices ranging from $0.0162 to $0.0218 until January 17, 2016. The fair value of the warrants issued was $84,156 and was expensed immediately.

In September 2013, there were 7,423,624 stock options granted at an exercise price of $0.0257 per share, exercisable until September 5, 2023 with a fair value net of forfeitures, at grant date of $210,300. The options granted were 100% vested for directors and shall vest in 25% immediately and 25% over four years 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 $40,688.

The following tables summarize the Company’s stock option activity during the years ended January 31, 2014 and 2013.

Incentive stock options to employees outstanding at January 31, 2014 are as follows:

The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated based on the January 31, 2014 stock price of $0.0195 per share.

We estimate the fair value of option awards on the grant date using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The Company uses historical volatility, disregarding identifiable periods of time in which share price was extraordinarily volatile due to certain events that are not expected to recur during the expected term, as its method to estimate expected volatility. The Company used the following assumptions to estimate the fair value of stock option grants to employees and non-employees:

        Expected        
    Expected   dividend       Risk-free interest    
Grant date   volatility   yield   Expected term   rate   Forfeiture rate

NOTE 11 – Income taxes

As of January 31 our deferred tax asset is as follows:

      January 31, 2014     January 31, 2013  
  Deferred Tax Assets $  10,243,000   $  9,513,000  
  Less Valuation Allowance   (10,243,000 )   (9,513,000 )
    $  -   $  -  

Management has elected to provide a deferred tax asset valuation allowance equal to the potential benefit due to our history of losses. If we demonstrate the ability to generate taxable income, management will re-evaluate the allowance. The change in the valuation allowance of $730,000 and $832,000 in the years ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, primarily represents the benefit of the change in net operating loss carry-forwards during the period. As of January 31, 2014, our estimated net operating loss carry-forward is approximately $30,127,508 and will expire beginning in 2025 through 2034.

Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limits the ability to utilize net operating losses if a 50% change in ownership occurs over a three year period. Such limitation of the net operating losses may have occurred but we have not analyzed it at this time as the deferred tax asset is fully reserved. We have federal and state net operating loss carry-forwards that are available to offset future taxable income.

NOTE 13 – Commitments and Contingencies

We are required to perform annual assessment work in order to maintain the Big Chunk Alaska State mining claims. If annual assessment work is not performed the Company must pay the assessment amount in cash in order to maintain the claims. Completion of annual assessment work in the amount of $400 per ¼ section (160 acre) claim or $100 per ¼ -¼ section (40 acre) claim extends the claims for a one-year period from the staking of claims. Assessment work performed in excess of the required amount may be carried forward for up to four years to satisfy future obligations. The Company estimates that the required annual assessments per year to maintain the claims from 2013 forward will be approximately $19,200. Sufficient assessment work has been performed for Big Chunk to maintain the claims beyond the next labor year.

The annual state rentals for the Big Chunk Alaska State mining claims vary from $70 to $280 per mineral claim. The rental period begins at noon September 1st through the following September 1st and annual rental payments are due on November 30th of each year. The rentals of $30,640.00, to extend the Big Chunk claims through September 1, 2014 were paid in November 2013. The estimated state rentals due by November 30, 2014 for the period from September 1, 2014 through September 1, 2015 are $30,640.00. Alaska State production royalty is three percent of net income. State law prescribes that after a 3.5 -year exemption from state taxes a metal mine is liable for a 15% state licensing tax on net income from the mine.

AZ MEP permits are valid for 1 year and renewable for up to 5 years. The rental fee is $2.00 per acre for the first year, which includes the second year, and $1.00 per acre per year for years three through five. The minimum work expenditure requirements are $10 per acre per year for years one and two and $20 per acre per year for years three through five.

A civil action was pending in the Alaska Superior Court in Anchorage, Alaska, that concerned title to some Alaska state mining claims owned by Big Chunk Corp., a subsidiary of Liberty Star. In that action Big Chunk and Liberty Star requested a judicial determination that certain lien claim notices recorded by a party named MBGS, LLC, against the mining claims were void; and MBGS sought an order enforcing the lien claims. Liberty Star and Big Chunk filed a motion for summary judgment to invalidate the lien claims. As was anticipated, MBGS opposed this motion. The lien claims were based on a debt alleged by MBGS to be due from Liberty Star. The existence of this alleged debt was disputed.

In March 2014 Liberty Star and Big Chunk entered into a settlement agreement with MBGS, LLC, following a resolution conference conducted in Anchorage, Alaska whereby all lien claims for the Northern Dynasty transfer were released. As a result of those claims released by MBGS, LLC, in May 2014 the company completed its loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty and discharged the principal balance and accrued interest for the 2010 Convertible Note which also terminated Northern Dynasty’s earn-in-rights.

On June 1, 2011 we rented a warehouse located at Building No. 1, 7900 South Kolb Road, Tucson, Arizona 85706. We rent this warehouse space for $3,645 per month. The lease is in effect until May 31, 2014 with an option to extend for two additional years. In addition to using the warehouse for standard purposes, such as storage of our exploration equipment, supplies and samples, the warehouse space also includes office facilities for the use of field geologists and geotechs.

NOTE 14 – 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. 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 January 31, 2014 and 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. As a result of these provisions, these warrants are not considered indexed to our common stock and are classified as liabilities under ASC 815. We used the following assumptions to estimate the fair value of the warranty liability at January 31, 2014 and 2013:

  Expected Expected dividend Expected Risk-free interest
Description volatility yield term rate
Warrant liability at January 31, 2014 209.37% 0% 2.5 0.69%
Warrant liability at January 31, 2013 99.80% 0% 3.59 years 0.65%

NOTE 15 – 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 are placement is named.

NOTE 16 – Subsequent events

In March 2014 Liberty Star and Big Chunk entered into a settlement agreement with MBGS, LLC, following a resolution conference conducted in Anchorage, Alaska whereby all claims recorded by MBGS, LLC will be released. As a result of the claims release by MBGS, LLC, in May 2014 the company completed its loan settlement agreement with Northern Dynasty (See Note 8) and discharged the principal balance and accrued interest for the 2010 Convertible Note and terminated Northern Dynasty’s earn-in-rights.

In May 2014, we sold 1,203,704 shares to one investor for gross proceeds of $13,000.

Between February 2014 and May 2014, $186,480 of the August 2013 Note were converted into 17,937,915 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Between February 2014 and April 2014, pursuant to the investment agreement with KVM, KVM purchased 15,593,934 shares for proceeds of $220,250.

In March 2014, the company issued 1,000,000 units of common stock to a designee of MBGS, LLC, pursuant to the settlement agreement. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and a warrant to purchase one-half share of the Company’s common stock. The value of the shares issued is $20,000. The 500,000 warrants have an exercise price of $0.028 and have a two year term.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


43

            As of the end of the period covered by this report, our Company evaluated the effectiveness and design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Our Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are the controls and other procedures that we designed to ensure that our Company records, processes, summarizes, and reports in a timely manner the information that it must disclose in reports that our Company files with or submits to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and principal executive officer, Mr. James Briscoe, conducted this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, Our principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and principal executive officer made the determination that its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

            Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Our principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and principal executive officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control -Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of January 31, 2014.

            The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that (1) pertain to maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

            Our management, including our principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and principal executive officer, Mr. James Briscoe, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. In addition, the design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and controls may become inadequate if conditions change. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

            This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s attestation in this annual report.

Identified Material Weakness

A material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Management identified the following material weakness during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of January 31, 2014:

Segregation of duties: Due to thesmall size of the Company, there is a lack of segregation of duties.

Complex accounting issue review: The Company lacked multiple reviews on complex accounting issues which occurred during the year.

Management’s Remediation Initiatives

The Company will hire additional personnel as finances will allow to enhance segregation of duties.  The Company will obtain an appropriate level of expert review from their outside consulting firm regarding complex accounting transactions as they occur during the period specifically for each situation.

Changes in Company Internal Controls

            No change in our Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among our directors or officers.

Board and Committee Meetings

The board of directors of our company held two formal meetings in the year ended January 31, 2014 and four formal meetings in the year ended January 31, 2013. All proceedings of the board of directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the Nevada General Corporate Law and the By-laws of our company, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held.

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which our shareholders may recommend nominees to our board of directors during the year ended January 31, 2014. Shareholders may contact our President, James Briscoe, to recommend nominees to our board of directors.

For the year ended January 31, 2014 our only standing committee of the board of directors was our audit committee. We do not have a nominating committee or a compensation committee.

Audit Committee

Currently our audit committee consists of our entire board of directors. We do not have a separately-designated standing audit committee established in accordance with section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act.

During fiscal years ended January 31, 2014 and January 31, 2013, there were no special meetings held by this committee. The business of the Audit Committee was conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the members of the board and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the board.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our board of directors has determined that it does not have a member of its board of directors or audit committee that qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K, or who is "independent" as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

We believe that the members of our board of directors are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating our consolidated financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. In addition, we believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an "audit committee financial expert" would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated any material revenues to date.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

Our directors and executive officers have not been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:


47


1.

any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;

  
2.

any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offences);

  
3.

being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities;

  
4.

being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated.

  
5.

being the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of: (i) any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation; or (ii) any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease- and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or (iii) any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or,

  
6.

being the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self- regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, to file reports regarding ownership of, and transactions in, our securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to provide us with copies of those filings. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during the year ended January 31, 2014, all filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than 10% percent beneficial owners were complied with.

Code of Ethics

Effective March 15, 2004, our company's board of directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to, among other persons, our company's president and secretary (being our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), as well as persons performing similar functions. As adopted, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics sets forth written standards that are designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

1.

honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

  
2.

full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the Securities and Exchange Commission and in other public communications made by us;

  
3.

compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

  
4.

the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics; and



48


5.

accountability for adherence to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics requires, among other things, that all of our company's Senior Officers commit to timely, accurate and consistent disclosure of information; that they maintain confidential information; and that they act with honesty and integrity.

In addition, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics emphasizes that all employees, and particularly Senior Officers, have a responsibility for maintaining financial integrity within our company, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, and federal and state securities laws. Any Senior Officer who becomes aware of any incidents involving financial or accounting manipulation or other irregularities, whether by witnessing the incident or being told of it, must report it to our company. Any failure to report such inappropriate or irregular conduct of others is to be treated as a severe disciplinary matter. It is against our company policy to retaliate against any individual who reports in good faith the violation or potential violation of our company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by another.

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2004 as Exhibit 14.1 to our annual report. We will provide a copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to any person without charge, upon request. Requests can be sent to: Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp., 5610 E Sutler Ln, Tucson, Arizona 85712.

The options have various vesting terms.

Long-Term Incentive Plans

There are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for directors or executive officers, except that our directors and executive officers receive stock options at the discretion of our Board. We do not have any material bonus or profit sharing plans pursuant to which cash or non-cash compensation is or may be paid to our directors or executive officers, except that stock options may be granted at the discretion of our Board.

We have no plans or arrangements in respect of remuneration received or that may be received by our executive officers to compensate such officers in the event of termination of employment (as a result of resignation, retirement, change of control) or a change of responsibilities following a change of control, where the value of such compensation exceeds $60,000 per executive officer.

Employment Contracts

We have not entered into any written employment agreements or compensation arrangements with any of our named executive officers. We have entered into a verbal agreement with James Briscoe, CEO, CFO and Director for annual salary of $148,000.

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.

Compensation of Directors

We have no formal plan for compensating our directors for their service in their capacity as directors, although such directors are expected in the future to receive stock options to purchase common stock as awarded by our board of directors or (as to future stock options) a compensation committee which may be established. Directors are entitled to reimbursement for reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance at meetings of our board of directors. Our board of directors may award special remuneration to any director undertaking any special services on our behalf other than services ordinarily required of a director. No director received and/or accrued any compensation for their services as a director, including committee participation and/or special assignments.

Incentive stock options were granted to directors during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014. There was no compensation paid or accruing to any director, unless such director is also a named executive officer, during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

We have set forth in the following table certain information regarding our common stock beneficially owned on January 31, 2014 for (i) each shareholder we know to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of our outstanding common stock, (ii) each of our executive officers and directors, and (iii) all executive officers and directors as a group. In general, a person is deemed to be a "beneficial owner" of a security if that person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of such security, or the power to dispose or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which the person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. All percentages are calculated based upon a total number of 830,236,231 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of January 31, 2014, plus, in the case of the individual or entity for which the calculation is made, that number of options or warrants owned by such individual or entity that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

We have not been a party to any transaction, proposed transaction, or series of transactions in which the amount involved exceeds $60,000, and in which, to our knowledge, any of our directors, officers, five percent beneficial security holder, or any member of the immediate family of the foregoing persons has had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Director Independence

We have no directors who meet the definition set forth in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ, which defines an “independent director” generally as a person other than an executive officer or employee of the company, or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the company’s board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANTS FEES AND SERVICES

Audit Fees

On January 28, 2013, the Board of Directors of our company dismissed by mutual agreement, Semple, Marchal & Cooper, LLP, as its principal independent accountant. On January 28, 2013, we engaged Malone Bailey LLP as our principal independent accountant. The audit committee of our company approved the dismissal of Semple, Marchal & Cooper, LLP and the engagement of Malone Bailey LLP as its independent auditor. We incurred $20,000 in fees from Malone Bailey LLP during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013.

For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013, the aggregate fees billed by Semple, Marchal & Cooper, LLP for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K and for the reviews of our consolidated financial statements included in Forms 10-Q were $85,270. For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2012, the aggregate fees billed by Semple, Marchal & Cooper, LLP for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K and for the reviews of our consolidated financial statements included in Forms 10-Q were $62,228.

For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, the aggregate fees billed by Malone Bailey, LLP for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K and for the reviews of our consolidated financial statements included in Forms 10-Q were $20,000.

Audit Related Fees

For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, the aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services by Malone Bailey, LLP relating to the performance of the audit of our consolidated financial statements which are not reported under the caption "Audit Fees" above, was $0.

For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013, the aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services by Semple, Marchal & Cooper, LLP relating to the performance of the audit of our consolidated financial statements which are not reported under the caption "Audit Fees" above, was $0.


53

Tax Fees

For the fiscal years ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no aggregate fees billed by Malone Bailey, LLP for other non-audit professional services, other than those services listed above, was $0.

For the fiscal years ended January 31, 2013, the aggregate fees billed by Semple, Marchal & Cooper, LLP for other non-audit professional services, other than those services listed above, was $0.

All Other Fees

We do not use and audit firm for financial information system design and implementation. These services, which include designing or implementing a system that aggregates source data underlying the financial statements or generates information that is significant to our consolidated financial statements, are provided internally or by other service providers. We do not engage an audit firm to provide compliance outsourcing services.

Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require that before our auditors are engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:

  • approved by our audit committee (which consists of our entire board of directors); or
  • entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the board of directors, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the board of directors is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the board of directors' responsibilities to management.

The board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the board of directors before the respective services were rendered.

The board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by Malone Bailey, LLP and Semple, Marchal & Cooper, LLP and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining Malone Bailey, LLP’s independence.
