4.01 Change in Registrants Certifying Accountant

(a) | Previous Independent
Accountant |
On
May 22, 2024, Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (the “Company”) dismissed Turner Stone & Company, LLP (“Turner”),
as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm, effective as of the same date. The decision to dismiss the auditor was
recommended and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.
The
reports of Turner for the past two fiscal years ended January 31, 2024, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion
and were not qualified or modified as to any uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle except with respect to an explanatory paragraph
indicating that there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the Company’s
two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period up to and including the date of the Company’s dismissal of Turner,
there have been no (i) disagreements with Turner on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure,
or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Turner, would have caused them to make reference
thereto in their reports on the financial statements for such periods; or (ii) reportable events within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v)
of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto, except for the material weaknesses described in Item 9A of the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2024.
The
Company provided Turner with a copy of this report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and requested
that it furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements
contained herein, and if not, stating the respect with which it does not agree. A copy of Turner’s letter to the Securities and
Exchange Commission is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
|
(b) | New Independent
Accountant |
On
May 22, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed the firm of M&K CPAS, PLLC (“M&K”), as the Company’s
independent registered accounting firm for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025, effective as of the same date.
During
the two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted with M&K
regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion
that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, nor did the entity of M&K, provide advice to the Company, either
written or oral, that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial
reporting issue. Further, during the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and subsequent interim period, the Company has not
consulted the entity of M&K, on any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event.
