LOL Folks, here's the likely reason why LBE has had some nice trading today. It sure can't help to have a little exposure in the Edmonton Newspaper.

What a novel idea telling the outside investing world about your company and it's prospects/rebound potentials....are you listening ISM?

"Liberty Mines (TSX: LBE) is a junior nickel producer that owns two small mines near Timmins, Ont. When nickel soared to $24 US a pound in mid-2007, Liberty's shares touched almost $5.

But the boom soon turned to bust. When nickel prices sank to $4 a year ago, Liberty had to shut its mines and lay off its entire staff.

Company CEO Gary Nash forged ahead, though, cutting a $30-million financing deal with a major Chinese nickel producer last May.

With nickel prices back to the $7.50 range, Liberty's mines are gearing up again. If nickel stays above $7, Nash figures Liberty can return to growth in 2010. Liberty's shares currently trade for 24.5 cents."
