Exciting Discovery of Visible Gold at Surebet
Goliath Resources Limited is thrilled to announce the latest drilling results from its Surebet discovery at the Golddigger Property. This site has unveiled the highest concentration of visible gold ever found, marking a significant achievement for the company. Drill hole GD-24-260 has shown remarkable results between 533.90 and 547.00 meters, opening up exciting possibilities for further exploration. This suggests that this area may serve as a crucial pathway for the fluids that deposit gold.
Drilling Program Expansion
The impressive findings from the current drilling campaign have led Goliath to significantly expand its program. Initially set at 15,000 meters, the drilling campaign has now grown to an impressive 36,000 meters, utilizing eight drill rigs. This major expansion is backed by a 100% hit rate for visible gold across an impressive 66% of all holes drilled in 2024, with 22 out of 33 holes reporting visible gold.
Discovery of a New Deep Zone
A significant development is the discovery of a new mineralized zone located an astonishing 1,239 meters below the surface. This area features numerous quartz veins rich in minerals such as chalcopyrite, galena, and sphalerite, indicating further untapped potential. Ongoing drilling in this deep zone continues to yield exciting results, with assays still pending.
Updates from the Bonanza Zone
Goliath is actively drilling in the Bonanza Zone, where recent results have shown impressive grades, including 34.03 g/t AuEq over 9 meters. The continuity of this high-grade gold horizon being tested further confirms the strength of the Bonanza Zone. With 21 new holes currently being drilled, more exciting discoveries are expected soon.
Expanded Land Package
In response to these new discoveries, Goliath has increased its land package by 28%, bringing its total controlled area to 91,518 hectares. This expansion reflects the company's ongoing commitment to exploring and developing mineralization systems similar to a Reduced Intrusion-Related Gold system. Including surrounding areas favorable for this type of mineralization is a strategic move for Goliath.
Potential at Treasure Island
Another area of interest for Goliath is the Treasure Island property, where high-grade quartz-sulfide mineralization has been confirmed through various channel samples. The extensive channel samples have recorded up to 28.08 gpt AuEq over a significant 450-meter strike. This area shows potential for further exploration and mineralization as well.
Next Steps
While the focus remains on the ongoing drilling programs, Goliath is also planning additional geological surveys and explorations of coinciding mineralized zones, reinforcing the positive outlook for both Surebet and Treasure Island.
