Study Confirms the Surebet High-Grade GOLD-Silver Discovery is Part of a Deep-Rooted Intrusion-Related Precious Metals System with Excellent Expansion Potential
STUDY CONFIRMS THE SUREBET HIGH-GRADE GOLD-SILVER DISCOVERY IS PART
OF A DEEP-ROOTED INTRUSION-RELATED PRECIOUS METALS SYSTEM WITH
EXCELLENT EXPANSION POTENTIAL
TORONTO, March 31, 2022 – Goliath Resources Limited (TSX-V: GOT) (OTCQB: GOTRF) (FSE: B4IF) (the
“Company or “Goliath”) is pleased to announce findings from a study of mineralized specimens from
the Surebet Zone conducted by Dr. Thomas Monecke and T. James Reynolds of the Colorado School of
Mines. The Surebet Zone is part of Goliath’s 100% controlled Golddigger Property in the Golden
Triangle, British Columbia.
Summary of Findings:
- A petrographic and fluid inclusion study of mineralized specimens from the Surebet Zone
conducted by Dr. Thomas Monecke and T. James Reynolds of the Colorado School of Mines concludes
that this newly discovered mineralizing system is intrusion-related having formed at significant depth,
over 5‒6 km, below paleosurface.
- Recognition of Surebet’s deep -rooted, intrusion -related formation points to significant
exploration upside at Goliath’s 100% controlled Golddigger project in the Golden Triangle of British
Columbia. Because the causative intrusion is presumed to be well down -dip to the west of Surebet, it is
considered likely that mineralization persists well beyond the current limits of drilling, approximately 1.1
km down dip from the outcropping Surebet Zone. It is also logical that faulted offsets of the Surebet Zone
have yet to be discovered elsewhere on the property, the New Extension Target immediate southeast of
Surebet being an example.
- Two main types of hydrothermal vein quartz are present: 1) early quartz that formed under
lithostatic conditions, and 2) a second quartz generation that formed under hydrostatic conditions and
crosscuts earlier quartz. Fluid inclusion evidence unequivocally demonstrates that vein quartz formation
occurred at the transition from ductile to brittle behavior, at high temperatures of ~350‒400⁰C, during a
period related to overall cooling of the hydrothermal system. The change from ductile to brittle behavior
of the wall rocks adjacent to the Surebet structure likely caused a change in pressure of the hydrothermal
fluids as they flushed into an open network of newly formed brittle fractures.
- Sulfides crosscut early -stage quartz and formed in association with , and/or after, second
generation quartz. Mineralization formed under hydrostatic conditions when fluid flow occurred though
a more open fracture network.
“This first ever study of the formational environment of the Surebet Zone provides strong support for
significant upside potential at Surebet and elsewhere across the Golddigger property,” commented Dr.
Quinton Hennigh, Technical and Geologic Director of Crescat Capital, a strategic shareholder of Goliath
Resources. “Surebet is a deep -rooted intrusion -related gold deposit, one that is likely expansive. The
causative intrusion probably lies well down dip of Surebet to the west indicating we have lots more room
to explore this strongly mineralized zone down dip. It is logical that lateral but down-faulted segments of
the Surebet system will be discovered to the north and south. The New Extension Zone immediately
southeast of Surebet is a likely example . With this intrusion -related model in hand, Goliath is very
confident to step out boldly with future explor ation efforts. This year, Goliath will undertake a three -
pronged approach to explore Golddigger: 1) to drill as much as 24 km of diamond core at Surebet, some
holes as far as 1.5 km down dip from where Surebet outcrops, 2) conduct inaugural drilling at the New
Extension Zone to test whether this is indeed a major extension of Surebet, and 3) to aggressively pursue
prospecting for new zones of intrusion-related mineralization across the property. Goliath is set to have a
very productive 2022.”
