February 19, 2026 — Leads & Copy — Goliath Resources Limited (TSX-V: GOT) has announced the results of gold-equivalent assays for 54 of 110 holes drilled in 2025 at the Surebet Discovery, located on its Golddigger Property in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle.
The company reports an average 13.2% increase in overall grade values from previously announced gold-only assays when accounting for silver, copper, lead, and zinc within these 54 drill hole results.
Highlights from the results include drill hole GD-25-337, which intersected 10.83 g/t AuEq (10.60 g/t Au and 8.04 g/t Ag) over 22.82 meters, including 15.51 g/t AuEq (15.19 g/t Au and 11.14 g/t Ag) over 15.71 meters including 38.71 g/t AuEq or 1.24 oz/t AuEq (37.28 g/t Au 49.80 g/t Ag) over 3.36 meters in the Golden Gate Zone. According to the company, every drill hole completed to date within the 1.8 km2 Surebet discovery, including all 110 holes from the 2025 season, has successfully intersected gold mineralization, confirming continuity, grade, and width across 5 gold-rich zones and 46 distinct lodes, which remain open for expansion.
The company said the fully funded 2026 drill program will focus on expanding the 5 Main Mineralized Zones, testing the Motherlode causative intrusive source, and building toward a future resource. Gold-equivalent assay results, which will include multi-element analyses for 56 out of 110 holes drilled in 2025, are still pending and will be released in the immediate future.
Goliath Resources Founder & CEO Roger Rosmus said the company is pleased to see a 13.2% increase to the overall AuEq grade numbers, reinforcing the significance of the metals other than gold at the Surebet Discovery.
Rosmus added that what continues to stand out about the Surebet high-grade gold discovery is the widespread distribution of visible gold to the naked eye.
Assay results from the recently concluded 64,364-meter drill program have significantly expanded the high-grade footprint of the Surebet Discovery, which remains open for further growth. An updated geological model incorporating all 2025 data identifies 5 primary mineralized Zones: Bonanza, Surebet, Golden Gate, Whopper, and Eldorado. Collectively these Zones comprise 46 gold-rich lodes and associated Eocene-aged RIRG dykes.
High-grade gold has been identified in three distinct rock packages discovered to date at the Surebet Discovery, the company said. This includes the gently dipping gold-rich stacked quartz-sulphide breccias/stockwork veins; the gold-rich intermediate to felsic gold-Rich dykes; and the recently discovered broad gold-rich zones of calc-silicate altered breccia. All mineralized rock types contain substantial amounts of visible gold and remain open for expansion. This confirms the presence of a Motherlode magmatic source nearby, a causative intrusion responsible for the extensive 1.8 km2 high-grade gold system at Surebet.
The company said the remarkable continuity, widths and grades encountered across multiple lodes underscore the significance of this 1.8 km2 gold system which has strong potential to become one of the most significant gold discoveries in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle in many years. Success to date has effectively vectored toward several open targets, providing a strong foundation for further expansion in the 2026 drilling campaign.
Assay results are still pending for 56 holes from the 2025 exploration campaign for the gold equivalent (AuEq) values, that will be announced once received, compiled and interpreted.
The company reports that 83 out of 110 holes (or 76%) drilled in 2025 contain visible gold, and 100% of holes drilled to date at the Surebet Discovery have intersected substantial quartz-sulphide mineralization.
According to the company, 92% of the holes (355 out of 386) drilled to date at Surebet contain visible gold.
Goliath has drilled over 156,000 meters encompassing over 1,500 pierce points in the Surebet Discovery located at the Golddigger property between 2021 and 2025.
The Surebet Discovery has predictable continuity and good metallurgy with gold recoveries of 92.2% from gravity and flotation at a 327-micrometer crush including 48.8% free gold recovery from gravity alone (no cyanide required to recover the gold), the company said. The metallurgy completed to date shows a benign rock composition without deleterious elements.
Based on positive grassroots exploration and drill results in recent years, Goliath significantly increased its land package from 66,608 hectares to 91,518 hectares and now controls 56 kilometers of key terrain of the Red Line geologic trend providing for additional discovery potential.
The Golddigger Property is located on tidewater with a barge route to Prince Rupert (190 km south) and close to infrastructure including the town of Kitsault adjacent to a permitted mine site on private property.
