GOLIATH DRILLS VISIBLE GOLD AND 12.47 METERS OF HIGHLY MINERALIZED QUARTZ-SULPHIDE-RICH BRECCIA AT SUREBET GOLDEN GATE FEEDER ZONE, GOLDEN TRIANGLE, B.C. Drill Hole GD-23-133 Highlights: ~1 mm nugget of Visible Gold was intercepted at 71.42 meters in a mineralized quartz-sulphide-rich
GOLIATH DRILLS VISIBLE GOLD AND 12.47 METERS OF HIGHLY MINERALIZED
QUARTZ-SULPHIDE-RICH BRECCIA AT SUREBET GOLDEN GATE FEEDER ZONE,
GOLDEN TRIANGLE, B.C.
Drill Hole GD-23-133 Highlights:
~1 mm nugget of Visible Gold was intercepted at 71.42 meters in a mineralized quartz-sulphide-rich
breccia interpreted to be a splay from the Bonanza Shear within the Surebet Golden Gate Feeder
Zone (see images below).
GD-23-133 collared from Pad TS-3 intersected 12.47 meters* of highly mineralized quartz-sulphide-
rich breccia containing galena-sphalerite-pyrrhotite from 27.4 to 39.87 meters (located 125 meters
to the southeast of Pad A, 2022 drill season) . A second quartz -sulphide-rich breccia interval was
intercepted between 70.73 and 71.9 meters , hosted by altered intermediate volcanic rocks which
contained pyrrhotite-galena-sphalerite-pyrite. Within this interval, a 1 mm nugget of visible gold was
identified at a 71.42 meter depth.
This is the fourth hole of the 2023 season from within the Surebet Golden Gate Feeder Zone to
intercept Visible Gold inclusive of significant widths of highly mineralized quartz -sulphide-rich
breccia (see map below).
This is the sixth hole containing Visible Gold from within the Surebet Golden Gate Feeder Zone that
include: (GD-22-49, GD-22-58 drilled in 2022; assays below) and (GD-23-111, GD-23-118, GD-23-126
drilled in 2023).
2022 Visible Gold Hole Assays - Surebet Golden Gate Feeder Zone:
GD-22-58 had a 273 AuEq x gm value intersecting Visible Gold and 24.80 gpt AuEq (22.03 gpt Au and
127.62 gpt Ag) over 11.00 meters*, including 38.70 gpt AuEq (34.42 gpt Au and 197.45 gpt Ag) over
7.00 meters* and 44.47 gpt AuEq (39.60 gpt Au and 224.10 gpt Ag) over 6.07 meters* located in the
Golden Gate Feeder Zone from 2022.
GD-22-49 had a 166 AuEq x gm value intersecting Visible Gold and 21.30 gpt AuEq (20.46 gpt Au and
40.06 gpt Ag) over 7.77 meters*, including 27.55 gpt AuEq (26.47 gpt Au and 51.55 gpt Ag) over 6.00
meters* located in the Golden Gate Feeder Zone from 2022.
Toronto, Ontario – July 12, 2023 – Goliath Resources Limited (TSX-V: GOT) (OTCQB: GOTRF) (FSE: B4IF) (the
“Company” or “Goliath”) is pleased to report it has drilled visible gol d and 12.47 meters* of highly
mineralized quartz-sulphide-rich breccia from hole GD-23-133 within the Surebet Golden Gate Feeder Zone
at its 100 % controlled Golddigger property (the “Property”), Golden Triangle, British Columbia. This intercept
is interpreted to be a splay from the Bonanza Shear that remains open. Visible gold has been reported from a
total of six holes drilled to date within the Surebet Golden Gate Feeder Zone, inclusive of: GD-22-49, GD-22-
58, GD-23-111, GD-23-118, GD-23-126 and GD-23-133.
Hole GD-23-133 (assays pending) was collared from Pad TS-3 intersected 12.47 meters* of highly mineralized
quartz-sulphide-rich breccia containing galena (up to 10 %), sphalerite (up to 15 %) and pyrrhotite (up to
20%) from 27.4 to 39.87 meters (located 125 meters to the southeast of Pad A, 2022 drill season) . A second
mineralized quartz-sulphide-rich breccia interval was recognized between 70.73 and 71.9 meters, hosted by
altered intermediate volcanic rocks which contained pyrrhotite (up to 5 %), galena (up to 5 %), sphalerite (up
to 3 %) and pyrite (up to 1 %). Within this interval a 1 mm nugget of visible gold was identified at a 71.42
meter depth.
All the occurrences of Visible Gold to date have been identified within quartz-breccia and veins in contact with
or in close proximity to sphalerite and/or galena mineralization. The occurrence of visible gold has previously
been independently confirmed in 2022 by the Colorado School of Mines with whom the Company is
collaborating on a project aimed at determining the origin and evolution of the gold mineralizing fluids at
Surebet.
Golddigger Property
The Golddigger Property is 100 % controlled covering an area of 59,089 hectares (146,012 acres) and is in the
world class geological setting of the Eskay Rift within the Golden Triangle of British Columbia and within 3
kilometers of the ‘Red Line’ that is host to multiple world class deposits. The Surebet discovery is in an excellent
location in close proximity to the communities of Alice Arm and Kitsault where there is permitted mill site on
private property. Its situated on tide water with d irect barge access to Prince Rupert (190 kilometers via the
Observatory inlet/Portland inlet). The town of Kitsault is accessible by road (190 kilometers from Terrace, 300
kilometers from Prince Rupert) and has a barge landing, dock, and infrastructure cap able of housing at least
300 people, including high-tension power. Additional infrastructure in the area includes the Dolly Varden Silver
Mine Road (only 7 kilometers to the East of the Surebet discovery) with direct road access to Alice Arm barge
landing (18 kilometers to the south of the Surebet discovery) and high -tension power (25 kilometers to the
East of Surebet discovery). The city of Terrace (population 16,000) provides access to railway, major highways,
and airport with supplies (food, fuel, lumber , etc.), while the town of Prince Rupert (population 12,000) is
located on the west coast and houses an international container seaport also with direct access to railway and
an airport with supplies.

Other
Oriented HQ-diameter or NQ-diameter diamond drill core from the drill campaign is placed in core boxes by
the drill crew contracted by the Company. Core boxes are transported by helicopter to the staging area, and
then transported by truck to the core shack. The core is then re -orientated, meterage blocks are checked,
meter marks are labelled, Recovery and RQD measurements taken, and primary bedding and secondary
structural features including veins, dykes, cleavage, and shears are noted and measured. The core is then
described and transcribed in MX D epositTM. Drill holes were planned using Leapfrog Geo TM and QGIS TM
software and data from the 2017-2022 exploration campaigns. Drill core containing quartz breccia, stockwork,
veining and/or sulphide(s), or notable alteration are sampled in lengths of 0.5 to 1.5 meters. Core samples are
cut lengthwise in half, one-half remains in the box and the other half is inserted in a clean plastic bag with a
sample tag. Standards, blanks and duplicates were added in the sample stream at a rate of 10%.
Grab, channels, chip and talus samples were collected by foot with helicopter assistance. Prospective areas
included, but were not limited to, proximity to MINFile locations, placer creek occurrences, regional soil
anomalies, and potential gossans based on high -resolution satellite imagery. The rock grab and chip samples
were extracted using a rock hammer, or hammer and chisel to expose fresh surfaces and to liberate a sample
of anywhere between 0.5 to 5.0 kilograms. All sample sites were flagged with biodegradable flagging tape and
marked with the sample number. All sample sites were recorded using hand -held GPS units (accuracy 3 -10
meters) and sample ID, easting, northing, elevation, type of sample (outcrop, subcrop, float, talus, chip, grab,
etc.) and a description of the rock were recorded on all-weather paper. Samples were then inserted in a clean
plastic bag with a sample tag for transport and shipping to the geochemistry lab. QA/QC samples including
blanks, standards, and duplicate samples were inserted regularly into the sample sequence at a rate of 10%.
All samples are transported in rice bags sealed with numbered security tags. A transport company takes them
from the core shack to the ALS labs facilities in North Vancouver. ALS is either certified to ISO 9001:2008 or
accredited to ISO 17025:2005 in all of its locations. At ALS samples were processed, dried, crushed, and
pulverized before analysis using the ME-MS61 and Au-SCR21 methods. For the ME-MS61 method, a prepared
sample is digested with perchloric, nitric, hy drofluoric and hydrochloric acids. The residue is topped up with
dilute hydrochloric acid and analyzed by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. Overlimits
were re-analyzed using the ME-OG62 and Ag-GRA21 methods (gravimetric finish). For Au-SCR21 a large volume
of sample is needed (typically 1-3kg). The sample is crushed and screened (usually to -106 micron) to separate
coarse gold particles from fine material. After screening, two aliquots of the fine fraction are analysed using
the tradi tional fire assay method. The fine fraction is expected to be reasonably homogenous and well
represented by the duplicate analyses. The entire coarse fraction is assayed to determine the contribution of
the coarse gold.
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.

* Widths are reported in drill core lengths and the true widths are estimated to be 80 -90% and AuEq metal
values are calculated using: Au 1644.08 USD/oz, Ag 19.23 USD/oz, Cu 3.47 USD/lbs, Pb 1870.50 USD/ton and
Zn 2882.50 USD/ton on October 28, 2022. There is potential for economic recovery of gold, silver, copper, lead,
and zinc from these occurrences based on other mining and exploration projects in the same Golden Triangle
Mining Camp where Goliath’s project is locate d such as the Homestake Ridge Gold Project (Auryn Resources
Technical Report, Updated Mineral Resource Estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment on the Homestake
Ridge Gold Project, prepared by Minefill Services Inc. (Bothell, Washington), dated May 29, 2020. Here, AuEq
values were calculated using 3-year running averages for metal price, and included provisions for metallurgical
recoveries, treatment charges, refining costs, and transportation. Recoveries for Gold were 85.5%, Silver at
74.6%, Copper at 74.6% and Lead at 45.3%. It will be assumed that Zinc can be recovered with the Copper at
the same recovery rate of 74.6%. The quoted reference of metallurgical recoveries is not from Goliath’s
Golddigger Project, Surebet Zone mineralization, and there is no guarantee that such recoveries will ever be
achieved, unless detailed metallurgical work such as in a Feasibility Study can be eventually completed on the
Golddigger Project.
