Goliath Resources (TSXV: GOT) has completed its 2026 drill program at the Surebet discovery, drilling 48,443 metres in 97 holes over 94 days on its Golddigger property in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle.
Seven rigs ran around the clock on the helicopter supported program despite a start delayed by heavy snowpack. Every hole intersected the targeted quartz-sulphide mineralization, and 59% of this year’s holes contained visible gold. Total drilling at Surebet now exceeds 200,000 metres.
The bigger takeaway is scale. Step-out drilling grew the Surebet system’s footprint by 12% to 2.01 square kilometres. The Bonanza Zone expanded to 1.51 square kilometres from 1.27, helped by a 750-metre extension to the southwest, while the Golden Gate Zone grew to 1.17 square kilometres from 0.85. Both remain open.
The program also outlined a new area near the junction of those two zones, now called the Big Bulk Zone, where stacked mineralized veinlets extend up to 310 metres in length. Goliath says the zone could be amenable to lower-cost bulk mining methods.
Previously released 2026 assays include:
- GD-26-436: 7.38 g/t gold equivalent over 35.70 metres from a depth of 41.30 metres
- GD-26-424: 10.90 g/t gold equivalent over 6.00 metres from a depth of 532.00 metres
- GD-26-414: 10.26 g/t gold equivalent over 5.00 metres from a depth of 509.00 metres
- GD-26-431: 9.12 g/t gold equivalent over 11.27 metres from a depth of 374.20 metres
- GD-26-478: 13.81 g/t gold over 4.85 metres from a depth of 237.00 metres
Those figures cover only a fraction of the season. Assays remain pending for 83 holes.
“I believe we are nowhere near the limits of this high-grade gold system,” said founder and CEO Roger Rosmus. “As stated many times, the more we drill the bigger the system gets.”
Goliath is updating its wireframe models as results arrive and will design a 2027 drill plan once the full 2026 dataset has been compiled and modelled.
