Analysis by Bill Pearson, PhD, P.Geo
Updated Jul 30, 2026
- Golddigger Property located ~30 km SE of Stewart, BC, near tidewater & existing infrastructure, including roads, hydroelectric power & nearby Kitsault mill site.
- Property covers 56km of the highly prospective “Red Line” structural corridor within the Eskay Rift, a geological trend associated with major deposits such as Eskay Creek, Brucejack and Snip Mine.
- Surebet discovery is the centerpiece of the Golddigger project & has become one of the most significant recent grassroots gold discoveries in the Golden Triangle uncovered after glacial retreat exposed previously hidden mineralized outcrops.
- Surebet is characterized by a large, high-grade gold-silver polymetallic system covering approximately1.8 km². Surebet Zone extends 1.2 km along strike and 1.1 km down-dip from surface, with 700 m vertical relief, excellent continuity, and is open.
- Multiple stacked mineralized zones have been outlined, including Surebet, Bonanza, Golden Gate, Whopper, and Eldorado Zones, with mineralization hosted in early to middle Jurassic island arc Hazelton sedimentary & volcanic rocks near the Red Line structural zone contact.
- Mineralization styles include quartz-sulphide breccias and veins; Reduced Intrusion Related Gold(RIRG) dykes; and calc-silicate altered breccias.
- Goliath and research collaborators from the Colorado School of Mines have suggested the mineralization may originate from a deeper magmatic “mother lode” source. The system remains open both laterally and at depth, providing strong expansion potential.
Goliath Resources Drilling
- From 2021 to 2025, 156,000 m of diamond drilling was completed with over 1,500 pierce points with a 100% hit rate in 46 vertically stacked high-grade gold veins over 1.2 km.
- 92% of holes (355 out of 386) drilled to date contain visible gold to the naked eye (VG-NE).
- Metallurgical tests have returned good gold recoveries of 92.2% at 327-micron crush from flotation &gravity, with 48.8% being free gold from gravity. No cyanide is required to recover the gold.
- No mineral resource estimate has been published as yet.
- On May 27, 2026, the Company announced that it has mobilized for its 2026 drill campaign at the Surebet discovery on its Golddigger Property.
- The fully funded drill program will include approximately 50,000 meters of systematic drilling designed to expand the known mineralization laterally and to depth, as well as test for the Motherlode Magmatic Gold Feeder Source.
- Expansion drilling in this program will focus on extending the footprint of the Bonanza Zone & GoldenGate Zone to the East, Northeast & Southwest, as well as expanding the Surebet Zone to the West and testing other gold-rich mineralized lodes/veins that remain open.
- Additional drilling will be allocated to testing a number of lithological-structural features linked to magnetic anomalies strongly indicating the presence of a Motherlode causative magmatic intrusion/gold feeder source.

- Planning for the 2026 drill program is near completion
- Mobilization is soon for a fully funded ~50,000 meters in 2026
- Focused on expanding the 46 mineralized veins
- An example, for significant expansion potential that is the Bonanza Zone that can be seen at outcropping at surface on the North face of the mountain
- Management believes the Surebet Discovery will continue to get bigger with every year of drilling. It remains open laterally and at depth.

Actual holdings will vary for each client or fund and there is no guarantee that a particular account will hold any or all of the securities discussed. All investing involves risk including risk of loss. Crescat target resource estimates (TSE) are based on internal modeling and geologic estimates, and include various assumptions based on analysis of geology, geophysics, geochemistry, historic drill assays, and metallurgical recovery data received to date. TSE are discounted based on drilling progress to date, an assessment of the management and technical team's strengths and weaknesses affecting their ability to advance the project, and environmental, local community, and government permitting risk factors. Estimates are displayed on a gold equivalent basis based on current price-to-gold ratios for silver, copper, and other metals if the primary metal is other than gold. Further drilling, assaying, resource modeling, and engineering studies will be required to determine whether Crescat's TSE can be reasonably expected to be achieved. Crescat's target resource estimates are updated monthly across the entire portfolio. Sources: Crescat Capital LLC, Bloomberg, Issuer. Expected profitability percentile is based on Crescat's geologic estimates of projected grades, recoveries, capex, and operational costs on the primary project compared to the universe of operating mines.
