In addition to advancing our Surebet, Bonanza and Golden Gate Zones with diamond drilling during the 2023 field season, our team also successfully carried out regional exploration across the broader Golddigger Property. These three existing mineralized zones which have seen 222 diamond drillholes, are undergoing meticulous 3D modelling which is revealing what shows to be world-class discoveries. The Surebet, Bonanza and Golden Gate Zones were discovered by the Goliath Resources Geological team by initial widespread boots-on-the ground prospecting that identified mineralized outcrops, followed by detailed prospecting, grab and channel sampling. This target-grooming then allowed us to successfully drill and define these mineralize...
