Dsm Syndicate Discovers Mineralized Hydrothermal Breccia and Quartz Stockwork with Grabs Containing up to 3.16 Grams PER Tonne GOLD and 69.3 Grams PER Tonne Silver ON the Goldcrest Property
DSM SYNDICATE DISCOVERS MINERALIZED HYDROTHERMAL BRECCIA AND QUARTZ
STOCKWORK WITH GRABS CONTAINING UP TO 3.16 GRAMS PER TONNE GOLD AND 69.3
GRAMS PER TONNE SILVER ON THE GOLDCREST PROPERTY
TORONTO, ONTARIO February 5, 2018 – Goliath Resources Limited (TSX-V: GOT). The Goldcrest
property is 100% owned by the DSM Syndicate, a private precious metals project generator in
British Columbia that has staked a total of six properties to date of which Goliath Resources Ltd.
owns a 10% interest, including the Goldcrest property. The DSM Syndicate looks forward to also
announcing assay results of the two remaining DSM properties as they become available and
interpreted.
The Goldcrest property is located 1 2 kilometers from Bella Coola, B ritish Columbia and covers
827 hectares. The property was staked based on positive results from a brief reconnaissance
prospecting program that discovered surface breccia and mineralization with bedrock grab
samples containing up to 3.16 grams per tonne gold and 69.3 grams per tonne silver from
different samples. Grab samples are selective in nature and not intended to be representative of
the material sampled. This is an original discovery with no previous record of claims or historic
work existing on the Goldcrest property. Limited prospecting defined the Cadillac trend, a 750-
meter-long by 100-meter wide gossanous zone (link to video) that remains open in all directions.
Highlights Include:
New bedrock discovery with no previous work recorded in the area.
The Goldcrest property remains largely unexplored providing for excellent additional
discovery potential.
The Cadillac trend measures 750 meter s by 100 meter s, defined by gossanous bedrock
with grab samples containing gold and silver mineralization. The zone remains open in all
directions.
A hydrothermal breccia and stockwork zone was traced over a 50 metre area within the
Cadillac trend. Grab sa mples containing anomalous gold and silver mineralization were
collected from this breccia (link to image).
Bedrock grab samples assayed up to 3.16 g/t Au. Grab samples are selective in nature and
not intended to be representative of the material sampled.
Geological mapping, prospecting and channel sampling is strongly recommended to
outline the full geometry of the Cadillac trend.
The Goldcrest claims are underlain by a sequence of altered basaltic to andesitic volcanic rocks,
fragmental breccias and tuffaceous horizons intercalated with thinly bedded siltstone, black
argillite, and pebble conglomerate that unconformably overlay Jurassic and Cretaceous plutons.
Mineralization in the Cadillac trend is associated with extensive quartz -sericite-pyrite alteration
and silicification. Areas of higher sulphide content are marked by yellow jarosite staining within
the strongly gossanous zone. Pyrite forms fine- to semi-massive disseminations in the host rock.
A grab sample from one such pyritic zone yielded assay results of 69.3 grams per tonne silver
(Table 1). Within the quartz -sericite-pyrite alteration halos are quartz stockworks, mineralized
structures, and hydrothermal breccias.

representative of the material sampled
An intensely altered hydrothermal breccia and quartz stockwork has been traced over 50 meters
(link to image). The pyrite-quartz matrix of this breccia contains clasts up to 50 cm wide and has
returned chip samples containing up to 0.11 grams per tonne gold and 9.8 grams per tonne silver
over 4 meters. Multiple <1 cm wide quartz stockwork veins (link to image) cross-cut the breccia
and are accompanied by pyritic alteration. Grab samples from the stockwork zone returned 3.16
grams per ton ne gold and 34.7 grams per tonne silver. A n additional grab sample from this
stockwork zone returned 0.47 grams per tonne gold and 17 grams per tonne silver. Grab samples
are selective in nature and collected to determine the presence or absence of mineralization and
are not intended to be representative of the material sampled. Elevated gold and silver values are
associated with high arsenic and anomalous stibnite and molybdenum with stronger degrees of
pyritization in the alteration zone.
Grab samples from a s imilar zone of strong pyritic alteration with quartz stockwork located
approximately 600 meters to the northeast returned 1.17 grams per tonne gold from bedrock.
Twenty six samples were collect ed during the 2017 first -pass exploration program on the
Goldcrest Property. Seventy percent of the samples taken returned between 50 parts per billion
and up to 3.16 grams per tonne gold. Additionally, forty percent of samples contained between
10 and 69.3 grams per tonne silver.
Further work is warranted on the Goldcrest property based on 2017 results . A comprehensive
and systematic exploration program is strongly recommended; consisting of extensive
prospecting across the property, preliminary mapping in the Cadillac trend, and property wide
reconnaissance geochemical sampling and an alteration study. The property is in an alpine area
with abundant exposure which allows for cost effective exploration. The majority of the claim
block consists of area recently exposed by receding glacial ice (link to video ) and offers strong
potential for additional discoveries.
Dr. Stefan Kruse. P.Geo., Chief Consulting Geologist stated:
“These early -stage results from the Goldcrest property are extremely encouraging. We look
forward to following-up the positive results with a significantly expanded exploration program in
2018”

the technical information in this release.
All rock, channel and talus fine samples were crushed and pulverized at ALS Canada Ltd.'s lab in
Vancouver, BC. ALS is either Certified to ISO 9001:2008 or Accredited to ISO 17025:2005 in all of
its locations. The resulting sample pulps were analyzed for gold by fire assay in Reno, Nevada or
in Vancouver, BC. The pulps were also assayed using multi -element aqua regia digestion at ALS
Canada Ltd.'s lab in Vancouver, BC. The coarse reject portions of the rock samples, as well as the
pulps, were shipped to DSM Syndicate's storage facility in Terrace, BC. All samples were analyzed
using ALS Canada Ltd.'s assay procedure ME-ICP41, a 1:1:1 aqua regia digestion with inductively-
coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP -AES) or inductively -coupled plasma mass
spectrometry (ICP-MS) finish for 35 elements as well as the Au -AA24 lead collection fire assay
fusion procedure with atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) finish. Any results greater than 100
ppm for silver or 10,000 ppm copper, lead and zinc were additionally assayed using ALS's OG46
method particular to each element. This method used an HNO3 -HCl digestion followed by ICP -
AES (or titrimetric and gravimetric analysis). Gold values of greater than 10 ppm Au were assayed
by the Au-GRA22 method which includes a fire-assay fusion procedure with a gravimetric finish.
Due to the reconnaissance nature of 2017 program, no independent blanks, standards or
duplicates were inserted into the sample stream.
The reader is cautioned that grab samples are spot samples which are typically, but not
exclusively, constrained to mineralization. Grab samples are selective in nature and collected to
determine the presence or absence of mineralization and are not intended to be representative
of the material sampled.
