# Goliath Reports Numerous High-Grade Intercepts Including 24.16 g/t AuEq Over 7.00 Meters, Grade Values Increased By 19.6 % In 56 Gold Equivalent Drill Results, And Expands Vast Stacked Vein System At Surebet Discovery, Golden Triangle, B.C. *2026-02-24T06:24:00-05:00* Goliath Reports Numerous High-Grade Intercepts Including 24.16 g/t AuEq Over 7.00 Meters, Grade Values Increased By 19.6 % In 56 Gold Equivalent Drill Results, And Expands Vast Stacked Vein System At Surebet Discovery, Golden Triangle, B.C. - **Accounting for Silver, Copper, Lead and Zinc within these 56 drill hole results, Goliath reports an average 19.6 % increase in overall grade values from these previously announced Gold only assays, with numerous high-grade intercepts including 24.16 g/t AuEq over 7.00 meters. Across all 110 drill holes completed during the 2025 season, this polymetallic contribution is an average increase of 16.5% in overall grade values from the Gold only assays.** - **92,000 meters of drilling completed in four drilling seasons (2021-2024) on the Surebet Discovery resulted in the modeling of a vast stacked vein system. The 2025 drilling season alone with more than 64,000 meters of drilling has expanded the modelled stacked vein system that remains open; over 156,000 meters drilled to date. This demonstrates the continuity of this high-grade gold system and the remaining untapped expansion potential of the Surebet discovery for 2026 and beyond. ****3D Model Video ****(**[**Click Here**](https://youtu.be/cHcSV8x2sNA)**). ** - An accompanying infographic is available at: [https://www.globenewswire.com/NewsRoom/AttachmentNg/0c45ce29-ca39-4930-afef-b4e527bae438](https://www.globenewswire.com/NewsRoom/AttachmentNg/0c45ce29-ca39-4930-afef-b4e527bae438) - **Dr. Quinton Hennigh, Geologic & Technical Advisor to Crescat Capital, a strategic investor in Goliath, states: **_“At the start of the 2025 Surebet drill campaign, the objectives were clear: continue to expand the known lode system and systematically drill areas with high-grade mineralization to better define these key areas. With all assay results now in hand, we can easily say these objectives were met. The current Surebet lode model is significantly expanded compared to last year, and the definition of high-grade regions within each lode is now much clearer. The key take away from this year's drilling is that the system continues to display considerable opportunity for expansion. I have noticed that the most successful discoveries are ones that continue to expand and improve over time which is certainly the case at Surebet."_ - **Metallurgical testing conducted on a composite core sample through a combination of simple gravity and flotation resulted in notable recoveries of 92.2% for Gold, 86.5% for Silver, 94.2% for Lead and 96.9% for Zinc. Recoveries with a crush size of 327 micrometer through simple and cost-effective gravity alone amounted to 48.8% for Gold and 10.3% for Silver (no cyanide leaching required to recover the gold and silver). The metallurgy completed to date shows a benign rock composition without deleterious elements (see news release March 1, 2023).** - **Of the holes drilled during the 2025 campaign, 83 out of 110 holes (or 76%) contained visible gold to the naked eye (VG-NE). 355 out of 386 drill holes representing 92% of holes drilled to date at Surebet contain VG-NE.** - An accompanying infographic is available at: [https://www.globenewswire.com/NewsRoom/AttachmentNg/6c32497b-d380-4fe7-8dfa-314e7a8297e3](https://www.globenewswire.com/NewsRoom/AttachmentNg/6c32497b-d380-4fe7-8dfa-314e7a8297e3) - **100% of the drill holes completed to date on Surebet have intersected gold mineralization clearly demonstrating desirable continuity, grades, and widths inclusive of over 1,500 pierce points within 5 Main Gold-Rich Zones comprising 46 mineralized lodes that remain open for expansion.** - **100% of the drill holes completed to date on****the Surebet Discovery ****have intersected substantial quartz-sulphide mineralization.** - **The desirable continuity, widths and grades demonstrated by drilling in multiple lodes shows this extensive 1.8 km****2****gold system continues to demonstrate the potential to become one of the most significant gold discoveries in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle in many years. The positive results received to date will help vector in on drilling targets that remain open for expansion potential.** - **High-grade gold has been identified in three distinct rock packages discovered to date at the Surebet Discovery. This includes the gently dipping gold-rich stacked quartz-sulphide breccias/stockwork veins; the gold-rich intermediate to felsic Eocene-aged dykes; and the recently discovered broad gold-rich zones of calc-silicate altered breccia. All mineralized rock types contain substantial amounts of VG-NE (from fine-grained to coarse-grained gold) and remain open for expansion. This confirms the presence of a Motherlode magmati
