Goliath Resources (GOTRF) is gearing up for its most ambitious drill program yet at the high-grade Surebet gold discovery within its Golddigger Property, nestled in British Columbia’s famed Golden Triangle. The company is mobilizing a massive 40,000-meter campaign, deploying a fleet of nine drill rigs, and following on the heels of exceptionally promising results from the 2024 season. This drilling blitz is designed to unlock the full potential of Surebet, a discovery that’s already turning heads in the mining world.
Here’s the game plan: Goliath is focusing its efforts on four key areas:
* Pinpointing the Motherlode causative intrusive gold source.
* Exploring 13 untested potential Eocene intrusive granitoid dykes, a move that could rewrite the playbook for Golden Triangle exploration.
* Conducting infill drilling to hone in on known, stacked veins, particularly in the most promising areas.
* Expanding the mineralized veins laterally and at depth, aiming to reveal the true scale of this remarkable find.
The highlights from 2024 paint a compelling picture:
* An astonishing 92% of the drill holes intersected visible gold.
* The best hole delivered a stunning 34.52 g/t AuEq over 39 meters.
* The discovery footprint already stretches across 1.8 square kilometers, a vast area ripe with potential.
* Exceptional metallurgy with 92.2% gold recoveries.
* A strategic land grab has expanded the property to 91,518 hectares.
* The location on tidewater with established infrastructure access offers significant logistical advantages.
These results, and the forward-looking strategic planning that guides this project, have investors watching closely.
“With an extremely robust balance sheet in hand, we have mobilized for our largest drill campaign to date totaling 40,000 meters with 9 rigs that is entirely focused on our exceptional Surebet high-grade gold system discovery located within our 100% controlled Golddigger Property,” Roger Rosmus, Founder & CEO of Goliath, noted in a statement. “In preparation for this year’s drill program, we have completed an updated model of our vertically stacked gently dipping vein system, and series of near vertical dykes intersecting the veins that will help us target the higher grade lodes for expansion.”
The Golddigger Property benefits from a prime location, situated on the tidewater with easy barge access to Prince Rupert, and proximity to the town of Kitsault. The broader area is known for its rich history of mining success, including the Eskay Creek and Snip mines, and other significant deposits.
Goliath’s commitment extends beyond exploration. “Goliath has drilled a total of 92,000 meters to date with over 400 pierce points on the Golddigger property between 2021 and 2024, which culminated in the updated geologic model used for this year’s drill planning,” Rosmus continued. “We feel that 2025 will be even more successful than the previous year. We look forward to updating shareholders on drilling progress throughout the season and provide drilling assay results as they are received, compiled, and interpreted.”
