Goliath Resources Limited (TSX-V: GOT) (OTCQB: GOTRF) (FSE:
B4IF) (the “Company” or “Goliath”)
is pleased to report final assay results for the 2024
drill season, with exceptional high-grade gold
intercepts of up 9.39 g/t AuEq (8.99 g/t Au and 12.21 g/t Ag) over
10.17 meters within 7.33 g/t AuEq (7.01 g/t Au and 9.70 g/t Ag)
over 13.10 meters from multiple mineralized veins that remain open
at Surebet on its 100% controlled Golddigger Property (the
“Property”), Golden Triangle, B.C. All 8 original layers
identified through drilling and modelling on Surebet (Surebet
Upper, Surebet Lower, Bonanza, Golden Gate, Whopper, Goldzilla,
Eldorado and Big One) have all been significantly expanded and all
remain wide open with strong additional expansion potential. 4 new
zones have been confirmed and modelled in 2024 bringing the total
gold-rich stacked layers to 12, all of which remain wide open for
expansion. 100 % of the drill holes completed to date within a 1.8
km2 area and to a depth of up to 1.2 km intersected mineralization
with excellent gold grades, clearly demonstrating minable widths
and grades and exceptional continuity and predictability of this
large expanding world-class gold discovery that remains wide open
both laterally and to depth with tremendous untapped discovery
potential remaining.
Dr. Quinton Hennigh, Geologic/Technical
Director of Crescat Capital, a strategic investor in Goliath
Resources, states: “Goliath achieved all goals that
it set for its 2024 Surebet drill program. New, well-positioned
drill holes rapidly expanded the footprint of the stacked lode
system, additional lodes were discovered and the likely causative
intrusion from which the Surebet gold system originates has now
identified. Importantly, because the 2024 program was expanded with
many additional holes, a clear picture of where and how high-grade
mineralization is distributed throughout the lode system is taking
shape, especially within the prolific Bonanza Zone. This is
critical, because this information now allows Goliath’s team to
sharpen their focus with future drilling to maximize the efficiency
with which they drill these high-grade areas. While 2024 drilling
more fully established the architecture of the Surebet lode system,
2025 is going to be all about fleshing out extent of the robust
high-grade zones that are now readily recognizable.”
Roger Rosmus, Founder and CEO of Goliath
Resources, states: “Our 2024 drilling season was our
best one to date, as we had several pleasant surprises. Early in
the season, we quickly saw a dramatic increase in the percentage of
visible gold from the 2023 season which had 32% of visible gold and
92% in 2024. As we are following the gold system down the mountain
with our drilling, we are seeing the number of stacked lenses
increase, and the abundance and coarseness of the visible gold
dramatically increase. One of our best intersections in 2023 was a
65.00 g/t AuEq intersection over 7.9 meters. Our best hole to date
from all drilling at Surebet was in 2024 that returned 34.52 g/t
AuEq over 39.00 meters. This remarkable hit is at the intersections
of the Surebet stacked zones and the Bonanza zone, in an area we
call the Bonanza High-Grade Gold Zone. Of course, our 2025 drilling
season will be focused on expanding the known stacked layers of
high-grade gold discoveries at Surebet (especially to keep
following the system toward the feeder of the Surebet and Bonanza
discoveries), we are also delighted to have a drill confirmed VMS
type discovery at Treasure Island (likely at the very top of the
system) that we will also advance in 2025. Another impressive
discovery in 2024 is high-grade Reduced Intrusion Related gold
zones that come from deeper and cut vertically through the stacked
veins that could lead us to the Motherlode feeder source. As we
drill further into the Surebet discovery, our geological team
continues to see the geological similarities between the Pogo Mine
in Alaska with stacked veins including visible gold. Also, it
appears Surebet’s current stacked mineralization sits on top of a
high-grade Reduced Intrusion Related Gold System (RIRGS) that could
substantially amplify the size of the entire system. Every drill
season Surebet gets better, with several pleasant surprises each
year and our team become more confident that we have found the most
important new high-grade gold discovery in the prolific Golden
Triangle of British Columbia in many years.”
Strong gold mineralization has been confirmed
with assays in 100% of 243 widespread drill holes containing
>300 intercepts within a 1.8 km2 area to date. Confirmation of
multiple stacked high-grade gold veins and widespread gold-rich
reduced intrusion feeder dykes, confirms the continuity of the
widths and grades at Surebet demonstrating this world class gold
system has tremendous additional untapped expansion potential
remaining.
One new high-grade zone located between Surebet
Lower and Bonanza assayed up to 45.60 g/t AuEq (45.36 g/t Au and
19.45 g/t Ag) over 5.95 meters and is characterized by
high-concentration of visible gold within mostly quartz-rich
breccia and vein stockwork. High-grade gold mineralization up to
12.67 g/t AuEq (12.39 g/t Au and 19.74 g/t Ag) over 5.00 meters has
also been confirmed in the Golden Gate zone from 603.00 - 608.00
meters downhole in one of the deepest zones discovered to date
located just above the valley floor. The Golden Gate zone remains
wide open demonstrating the exceptional additional discovery
potential at depth.
With only 15 months of boots on the ground, the
high-grade mineralization consistently observed in 100% of all 243
drill holes with >300 intercepts collared within a 1.8 km2 area
to date clearly demonstrates the continuity and predictability of
this extensive mineralizing system that remains open in all
directions providing for excellent additional discovery and
expansion potential. All 64 holes drilled in 2024 have intercepted
significant mineralization with 92% of the holes (or 59 out of 64
holes) containing occurrences of visible gold or coarse-grained
visible gold, demonstrating the excellent continuity of this
extensive high-grade gold system that remains wide open in all
directions.
The Company looks forward to continuing to
expand the mineralization at Surebet and increase the understanding
of the geometry and controls of the mineralization. The discovery
of the RIRG mineralization clearly indicates proximity to the
source of this extensive mineralizing system.

Treasure Island Drill Results
Mineralization confirmed in quartz-sulphide
veins on the original Treasure Island discovery from channel
samples has been intercepted in multiple holes from the inaugural
drill program executed in 2024. The gold sulphide mineralization
seen in drill holes is comparable to what was observed in surface
grab and channel samples. The 2024 drill highlights include drill
holes TI-24-04 that intercepted 1.25 g/t AuEq over 7.12
meters, including 2.37 g/t AuEq over 2.90 meters, and
drill hole Ti-24-05 which intercepted 1.34 g/t AuEq over
4.10 meters, including 2.26 g/t AuEq over 2.25 meters.
Mineralization consists of significant intervals of quartz-sulphide
veining and breccia composed of semi-massive to massive pyrite and
chalcopyrite hosted in a strongly deformed mudstone unit.
Gold mineralization at Treasure Island is hosted
in structurally controlled quartz-sulphide rich veins and shear
zones rich in pyrite and chalcopyrite. As geophysical surveys are
very good at identifying sulphides at depth, at the beginning of
the 2025 season a geophysical survey will be completed to help
target the mineralization beneath Treasure Island focused on
delineating strong drill targets in both the subsurface of the
Treasure Island outcrop as well as under the surrounding glacier in
preparation for drilling.

Golddigger Property
The Golddigger Property is 100% controlled and
covers an area of 91,518 hectares in the world class geological
setting of the Eskay Rift, within 3 kilometers of the Red Line in
the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. This area has hosted some
of Canada’s greatest mines including Eskay Creek, Premier and Snip.
Other significant and well-known deposits in the Golden Triangle
include Brucejack, Copper Canyon, Galore Creek, Granduc, KSM, Red
Chris, and Schaft Creek. Goliath controls 56 kilometers of the Red
Line which is a geologic contact between Triassic age Stuhini rocks
and Jurassic age Hazelton rocks used as key markers when exploring
for gold-copper-silver mineralization.
The Surebet discovery has exceptional continuity
and excellent metallurgy with gold recoveries of 92.2% with 48.8%
of it as free gold from gravity alone at a 327-micrometer crush (no
cyanide required to recover the gold). The metallurgy completed to
date shows no deleterious elements are present such as mercury or
arsenic.
The Property is in an excellent location in
close proximity to the communities of Alice Arm and Kitsault where
there is a permitted mill site on private property. It is situated
on tide water with direct barge access to Prince Rupert (190
kilometers via the Observatory inlet/Portland inlet). The town of
Kitsault is accessible by road (190 kilometers from Terrace, 300
kilometers from Prince Rupert) and has a barge landing, dock, and
infrastructure capable of housing at least 300 people, including
high-tension power.
Additional infrastructure in the area includes
the Dolly Varden Silver Mine Road (only 7 kilometers to the East of
the Surebet discovery) with direct road access to Alice Arm barge
landing (18 kilometers to the south of the Surebet discovery) and
high-tension power (25 kilometers to the east of Surebet
discovery). The city of Terrace (population 16,000) provides access
to railway, major highways, and airport with supplies (food, fuel,
lumber, etc.), while the town of Prince Rupert (population 12,000)
is located on the west coast and houses an international container
seaport also with direct access to railway and an airport.

The reader is cautioned that grab samples are
spot samples which are typically, but not exclusively, constrained
to mineralization. Grab samples are selective in nature and
collected to determine the presence or absence of mineralization
and are not intended to be representative of the material
sampled.
Oriented HQ-diameter or NQ-diameter diamond
drill core from the drill campaign is placed in core boxes by the
drill crew contracted by the Company. Core boxes are transported by
helicopter to the staging area and then transported by truck to the
core shack. The core is then re-orientated, meterage blocks are
checked, meter marks are labelled, Recovery and RQD measurements
taken, and primary bedding and secondary structural features
including veins, dykes, cleavage, and shears are noted and
measured. The core is then described and transcribed in MX
Deposit™. Drill holes were planned using Leapfrog Geo™ and
QGIS™ software and data from the 2017-2022 exploration
campaigns. Drill core containing quartz breccia, stockwork, veining
and/or sulphide(s), or notable alteration are sampled in lengths of
0.5 to 1.5 meters. Core samples are cut lengthwise in half,
one-half remains in the box and the other half is inserted in a
clean plastic bag with a sample tag. Standards, blanks and
duplicates were added in the sample stream at a rate of 10%.
Grab, channels, chip and talus samples were
collected by foot with helicopter assistance. Prospective areas
included, but were not limited to, proximity to MINFile locations,
placer creek occurrences, regional soil anomalies, and potential
gossans based on high-resolution satellite imagery. The rock grab
and chip samples were extracted using a rock hammer, or hammer and
chisel to expose fresh surfaces and to liberate a sample of
anywhere between 0.5 to 5.0 kilograms. All sample sites were
flagged with biodegradable flagging tape and marked with the sample
number. All sample sites were recorded using hand-held GPS units
(accuracy 3-10 meters) and sample ID, easting, northing, elevation,
type of sample (outcrop, subcrop, float, talus, chip, grab, etc.)
and a description of the rock were recorded on all-weather paper.
Samples were then inserted in a clean plastic bag with a sample tag
for transport and shipping to the geochemistry lab. QA/QC samples
including blanks, standards, and duplicate samples were inserted
regularly into the sample sequence at a rate of 10%.
All samples are transported in rice bags sealed
with numbered security tags. A transport company takes them from
the core shack to the Paragon Geochemical labs facilities in
Surrey, BC or ALS labs facilities in North Vancouver, BC. Paragon
Geochemical is certified with both AC89-IAS and ISO/IEC Standard
17025:2017. Samples submitted to Paragon received gold and silver
analysis by photon assay whereby the entire sample is crushed to
approximately 70% passing 2 mm mesh. The entire crushed sample is
riffle split and weighed into multiple (300-500g) jars that are
submitted for photon assay. Photon assay uses high-energy X-rays
(photons) to excite atomic nuclei within the jarred samples,
causing them to emit secondary gamma rays, which are measured to
identify and quantify the metals present. The assays from all jars
are combined on a weight-averaged basis. ALS is either certified to
ISO 9001:2008 or accredited to ISO 17025:2005 in all of its
locations. At ALS samples were processed, dried, crushed, and
pulverized before analysis using the ME-MS61 and Au-SCR21 methods.
For the ME-MS61 method, a prepared sample is digested with
perchloric, nitric, hydrofluoric, and hydrochloric acids. The
residue is topped up with dilute hydrochloric acid and analyzed by
inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. Overlimits
were re-analyzed using the ME-OG62 and Ag-GRA21 methods
(gravimetric finish). For Au-SCR21 a large volume of sample is
needed (typically 1-3kg). The sample is crushed and screened
(usually to -106 micron) to separate coarse gold particles from
fine material. After screening, two aliquots of the fine fraction
are analysed using the traditional fire assay method. The fine
fraction is expected to be reasonably homogenous and well
represented by the duplicate analyses. The entire coarse fraction
is assayed to determine the contribution of the coarse gold.
Widths are reported in drill core lengths and
the true widths are estimated to be 80-90% and AuEq metal values
are calculated using: Au 2797.16 USD/oz, Ag 31.28 USD/oz, Cu 4.25
USD/lbs, Pb 1955.58 USD/ton and Zn 2750.50 USD/ton on January 31st,
2025. There is potential for economic recovery of gold, silver,
copper, lead, and zinc from these occurrences based on other mining
and exploration projects in the same Golden Triangle Mining Camp
where Goliath’s project is located such as the Homestake Ridge Gold
Project (Auryn Resources Technical Report, Updated Mineral Resource
Estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment on the Homestake Ridge
Gold Project, prepared by Minefill Services Inc. Bothell,
Washington, dated May 29, 2020). Here, AuEq values were calculated
using 3-year running averages for metal price, and included
provisions for metallurgical recoveries, treatment charges,
refining costs, and transportation. Recoveries for Gold were 85.5%,
Silver at 74.6%, Copper at 74.6% and Lead at 45.3%. It will be
assumed that Zinc can be recovered with the Copper at the same
recovery rate of 74.6%. The quoted reference of metallurgical
recoveries is not from Goliath’s Golddigger Project, Surebet Zone
mineralization, and there is no guarantee that such recoveries will
ever be achieved, unless detailed metallurgical work such as in a
Feasibility Study can be eventually completed on the Golddigger
Project.
