Goliath Resources Limited intersected high-grade gold mineralization at the Bonanza Zone within the Surebet Discovery at its 100% owned Golddigger Property in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle. Drill hole GD-26-431 returned 9.12 g/t gold equivalent over 11.27 meters, including a higher-grade core assaying 13.89 g/t gold equivalent over 7.14 meters.

The same drill hole intersected a second interval deeper in the system, returning 4.70 g/t gold equivalent over 3.03 meters within a broader interval of 1.08 g/t gold equivalent over 20.00 meters. Additional step-out drilling included hole GD-26-442, which intersected 8.35 g/t gold equivalent over 4.15 meters, including 31.42 g/t gold equivalent over 1.00 meter as part of a 100-meter northern expansion. Hole GD-26-426 intercepted 2.93 g/t gold equivalent over 7.00 meters, including 5.07 g/t gold equivalent over 3.91 meters.

“We are pleasantly surprised that as we have focused on step out drilling during the 2026 drilling campaign to grow the dimensions of the Surebet system it has delivered. The footprint of high-grade with visible gold just keeps getting larger which is rare to see.”

— Roger Rosmus, Founder & CEO

The 2026 step-out program expanded the Bonanza Zone footprint by 750 meters to the southwest, 100 meters to the west, 100 meters to the north, and 160 meters to the northeast. The zone remains open for expansion with additional assays pending.

The company holds a 100% interest in the 91,518-hectare Golddigger Property, which encompasses 56 kilometers of the Red Line geologic trend. The fully funded 2026 drill program comprises approximately 50,000 meters of systematic drilling using seven drill rigs targeting the Bonanza, Eldorado, Golden Gate, Surebet, and Whopper Zones.

Nearby activity in the district includes Contango Silver and Gold, which reported drill results at the Kitsault Valley Project in September 2026, highlighted by an intercept of 506 g/t silver equivalent over 13.90 metres.
