Goliath Resources (TSXV: GOT) has begun its 2026 drill campaign at the high-grade Surebet discovery, the centerpiece of its wholly owned Golddigger project in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle.
Two rigs are already turning, with five more set to arrive shortly to bring the total to seven. The fully funded program is targeting roughly 50,000 metres of drilling, broadly in line with the 64,364 metres Goliath completed in 2025, its largest season to date.
The 2026 drill program is focused on expanding the current footprint of Surebet. Drilling will aim to extend the footprint of the Bonanza and Golden Gate zones to the east, northeast and southwest, push the Surebet zone westward, and probe additional gold-bearing lodes and veins that remain open. The company is also chasing depth, with the broader objective of mapping how far the system runs.
A second priority is the search for the source of the gold mineralization. Goliath intends to test a magnetic anomaly in the southwestern part of the property that it believes points to the Motherlode magmatic intrusion feeding the system. Alongside the new drilling, a core re-logging effort is underway to refine the geological model and better define the gold rich shear zones.

Every hole drilled at the 1.8-square-kilometre Surebet discovery between 2021 and 2025 hit gold, and 355 of 386 holes, or 92%, contained gold visible to the naked eye. The updated model now counts five mineralized zones spanning 46 stacked lodes and veins, with standout intercepts including 34.52 g/t gold equivalent over 39 metres at Golden Gate and 21.08 g/t gold equivalent over 23 metres at Surebet.
“It is still somewhat surprising that after 156,000 meters drilled to date, that we have still not reached the limits of the system,” said founder and chief executive Roger Rosmus, who likened the gently dipping stacked veins to Alaska’s Pogo Mine. He pointed to coarsening visible gold lower on the mountain as a sign the system extends well beyond what has been tested.
The campaign follows a move in March to consolidate the asset, when Goliath earned the remaining 51% of Golddigger and trimmed a 1% royalty, leaving it with full ownership and a reduced 2% net smelter return.
Goliath Resources last traded at $1.48 on the TSX Venture.
