And so it begins – again: Goliath Resources (WKN A2P063 / TSXV GOT) presents the latest drill results from its high-grade gold system Surebet for the first time in 2026 – and once again delivers high-grade hits over more than impressive thicknesses!
The company, founded and led by CEO Roger Rosmus, now presents the results of the last 70 gold only holes from the 2025 drilling campaign. However, this also means that the analytical results for 110 (!) drill holes from last year, are now being analyzed for silver, copper, lead, and zinc in addition to gold, are still pending. Once this data is available and has been evaluated and interpreted, the company says, both data sets will be combined into gold equivalent values, which will of course be higher still for the most part.
Goliath also points out that every drill hole in the Surebet area has intersected gold mineralization so far. In addition, the company can report an exceptionally high rate of “visible gold,” which, according to the description, is visible to the naked eye in many cores. In the 2025 campaign, 83 of 110 drill holes (76%) contained gold visible to the naked eye, while across all drill holes completed to date at Surebet, 355 of 386 drill holes, or 92%, contained visible gold!
Goliath Resources reports numerous sections with high-grade gold mineralization
Today’s release focuses on several high-grade intersections from various parts of the Surebet system. Among other things, Goliath reports from the Golden Gate Zone, the Bonanza Zone, and the Surebet Zone itself. Overall, the company classifies the mineralization into five main zones, which in turn consist of 46 gold-rich “lodes.” According to Goliath, these zones and lodes remain open both laterally and at depth.
In 2025, Goliath drilled 64,364 meters on the project. The results now presented are part of these drill meters and, according to the company, have expanded the spatial extent of mineralization in all five main zones!
Drill hits from Golden Gate, Bonanza and Surebet: high-grade sections and multiple mineralization zones per borehole
Among the highlighted drill intercepts is GD-25-319 in the Golden Gate Zone, where Goliath reports 19.13 g/t Au over 6.10 meters, including 22.86 g/t Au over 5.10 meters and 29.09 g/t Au over 4.00 meters in quartz-sulfide veins. The drill core description mentions several occurrences of visible gold.
GD-25-405 is highlighted from the Bonanza Zone. There, 10.58 g/t Au over 8.30 meters was intersected, including 14.04 g/t Au over 6.25 meters and, within that, 15.50 g/t Au over 5.60 meters. The company attributes the section to a quartz-sulfide breccia and also reports visible gold here. In the same drill hole, an additional 3.25 meters with 2.47 g/t Au from quartz-sulfide veins are mentioned, which are attributed to the Surebet Zone.
Goliath cites further examples from the Surebet Zone, among others: GD-25-312 returned 10.56 g/t Au over 3.70 meters from a gold-rich quartz-sulfide breccia section. Also in the Surebet Zone, GD-25-326 returned 8.57 g/t Au over 3.00 meters from a quartz-sulfide vein and breccia sequence. In GD-25-401, Goliath reports 4.89 g/t Au over 5.00 meters, embedded in 2.96 g/t Au over 8.89 meters, from a brecciated, strongly calc-silicate altered section; additional intervals are also reported, including 3.0 g/t Au over 4.11 meters (Surebet Zone) and 2.4 g/t Au over 3.1 meters (Golden Gate Zone).
An overview of the key drill results for clarification:
- GD-25-319 (Golden Gate Zone): 19.13 g/t Au over 6.10 m (including 29.09 g/t Au over 4.00 m)
- GD-25-405 (Bonanza Zone): 10.58 g/t Au over 8.30 m (including 15.50 g/t Au over 5.60 m)
- GD-25-312 (Surebet Zone): 10.56 g/t Au over 3.70 m
- GD-25-345 (Golden Gate Zone): 4.47 g/t Au over 6.00 m (including 7.93 g/t Au over 3.36 m)
- GD-25-330 (Golden Gate Zone): 7.48 g/t Au over 3.55 m
- GD-25-326 (Surebet Zone): 8.57 g/t Au over 3.00 m
Five main zones with 46 lodes: Update on the model of the Surebet system
Based on the gold analyses received from 2025, Goliath describes an updated model in which the Surebet System consists of five large-scale mineralized zones: Bonanza, Surebet, Golden Gate, Whopper, and Eldorado. Together, these zones comprise 46 mineralized lodes. In addition, the company mentions gold-rich Eocene dykes (referred to as RIRG dykes), which are also part of the system and intersect the aforementioned zones.
For each zone, the extent, number of lodes, and maximum thicknesses are specified. According to Goliath, the Bonanza Zone has a strike of 1.8 km NW-SE and 1.1 km NE-SW, five lodes with thicknesses up to 19 meters and a combined thickness of up to 27 meters. The Surebet Zone is reported to be 1.2 km NW-SE and 930 meters NE-SW, with nine lodes up to 19 meters and a combined thickness of up to 30 meters. For the Golden Gate Zone, the company reports 1.3 km east-west and 820 meters north-south, 18 lodes up to 14 meters and a combined thickness of up to 49 meters. The Whopper Zone extends 800 meters north-south and 450 meters east-west (12 lodes up to 6 meters, combined up to 30 meters). The Eldorado Zone is described as 680 meters east-west and 700 meters north-south (two lodes up to 5 meters, combined up to 7 meters). And, as Goliath emphasizes, all of these zones are still open for expansion!
The Eocene dykes are reported to have lengths of up to 1.4 km north-south, a vertical elevation difference of up to 890 meters, and thicknesses of up to 25 meters; and they too remain open for further expansion.
Outlook 2026: Expansion drilling and “vectorization” to a suspected source
Goliath has announced a fully funded drilling program for 2026 that will “primarily” target the expansion of the five main zones. According to the company, data compilation and interpretation are being carried out in parallel in order to target the next drilling more precisely. Among other things, the aim is to track down a possible “mother lode”, the suspected intrusive source that Goliath believes to be the cause of the extensive gold-rich system.
Goliath describes three different host or mineralization packages in which high-grade gold has been identified to date: (1) shallow-dipping, stacked quartz-sulfide breccias or stockwork veins, (2) gold-rich Eocene dykes, and (3) broader, gold-rich zones in calc-silicate altered breccias. All three types contain visible gold and remain open. It is from this that the company deduces that a nearby intrusive source (Motherlode) is a plausible driver of the system and intends to better define this with upcoming drilling.
Another point of internal interpretation is a so-called hinge zone, where two series of stacked veins with opposite dip directions are thought to converge. Goliath sees this as a zone of particular interest for further target definition. Concrete next steps remain linked to the pending multi-element analyses: Only with the still missing 2025 results, according to the logic of the experts, can the company calculate final AuEq values and refine the model accordingly.
The bottom line is that Goliath is emphasizing two things with this release: First, the series of “gold-only” assays provides further examples of high-grade intervals in several subzones, which are so typical of the Surebet system. Second, the company points to the larger data set from the 110 drill holes that is still pending, which is likely to shape the gold equivalent evaluation and thus the overall classification of the 2025 campaign in the future – as well as the work for 2026.
The final results from the 2025 campaign have demonstrated once again what an exceptional gold systems Goliath has found in Surebet. We are very much looking forward to seeing what this years exploration program will deliver!
