Appointment of Director


On April 7, 2010, the board of directors of Liberty Silver Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Registrant”), appointed Mr. Bill Tafuri to serve as a director of the Registrant.  


In addition to serving as a director of the Registrant, Mr. Tafuri also serves as the Vice President of Exploration of the Registrant.  Mr. Tafuri has over 35 years of exploration and mine development experience.  Prior to joining the Registrant, Mr. Tafuri worked for both major and junior mining companies and has held management and consulting positions in North and South America, Russia, and Central Asia for Getty Mining Co., Santa Fe Pacific Gold Corp., Kinross Gold Corp., and Centrasia Mining Corp. Early in his career, Mr. Tafuri worked in the western United States, including Nevada, as an exploration geologist and ultimately as the Western U.S. Exploration Manager of Getty Mining.  During this time, he was the project manager for development of the Pine Grove porphyry molybdenum deposit in Utah, a JV between Getty Mining and Phelps Dodge. Mr. Tafuri received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in geology at the University of Nevada-Reno and his Ph.D. in geology at the University of Utah.  He is a registered Professional Geologist in Utah.


The Registrant does not currently have a written employment agreement with the newly elected director.  Mr. Tafuri currently receives a monthly salary of $10,000 for his services as the Vice President of Exploration of the Registrant.  Additionally, there were no transactions during the last two years, or proposed transactions, to which the Company was or is to be a party, in which the new director or officers had or is to have a direct or indirect material interest.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
