Roger Rosmus, Founder and CEO of Goliath
Resources, states: “We are delighted to have McEwen Mining
make a strategic investment into Goliath Resources. Rob McEwen
recognized the potential of our Surebet high-grade gold discovery
in 2023, and has made three personal investments through private
placements since then. Our 2024 drilling campaign was a major
breakthrough season for the Surebet high-grade gold discovery in
the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. The discovery is noted for
having a series of stacked gently dipping veins with widespread
high-grade gold. It is fortunate to have a remarkable content of
visible gold which is in all the rock units (sediments, contact of
the sediments and volcanics, and in the volcanics, as well as in
the intrusion related dykes) with abundant fine-grained visible
gold, including coarse-grained visible gold. In our 2023 drilling,
we found visible gold in 32% of the drill holes and in 2024 that
increased to 92%. Our recently reported drill hole intersection was
our best to date returning 10 meters of 132.93 g/t gold equivalent
(plus several high-grade holes with multiple intercepts, system
remains wide open) making for a gram/meter intersection that puts
it in the top percentile of all intersections throughout the world
in the past 20 years. Each season we have seen the discovery get
better and saw several pleasant surprises in 2024, including the
high percentage of visible gold in our deeper drilling into the
system, and our remarkable recently reported intersection. We still
have 89 pending holes from the 2024 drilling season to report and
think we may have made a second important discovery, this one a
volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) 35 km to the north of Surebet.
Rob McEwen is a member of the Order of Canada and a Canadian Mining
Hall of Fame member due to his record of philanthropy and the
tremendous success he had building Goldcorp from a small gold miner
to a success story when Goldcorp mined its bonanza-zone at their
Red Lake Mine, making it one of the lowest cost miners of
high-grade gold in the gold mining sector. His recognition of the
success of the Surebet discovery in 2023 has been greatly
appreciated and we are pleased to have McEwen Mining join our
shareholder roster with this strategic investment. We are also very
pleased that Goliath Resources will be a significant shareholder of
McEwen Mining due to their combination of being a gold miner, their
extensive drilling on their gold projects and their world-class
copper asset that is in the top 10 undeveloped copper projects
ranking in the lowest cost quartile as well.”
Rob McEwen, Chairman and Chief Owner of
McEwen Mining, states: “The Goliath Resources team has
done a terrific job advancing their Surebet high-grade gold
discovery in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia and McEwen
Mining is thrilled to make a strategic investment into Goliath
Resources. What initially caught my attention was the high-grade
gold they discovered, and that it was a grassroots discovery in the
Golden Triangle which is a prolific gold mining jurisdiction, one
of the most important in Canada. Worldwide, grassroots discoveries
of high-grade gold in a mining-friendly jurisdiction well-known for
high-grade gold mines are exceedingly rare. They were able to make
the grassroots discovery due to it until fairly recently being
covered by glaciers and permanent snowpack that have receded to
expose a large area of outcropping rock that has now been
significantly advanced over the past few drilling seasons. McEwen
Mining is committed to gold mining, our gold mines are benefitting
from the record high prices of gold in 2024 and we have an updated
resource coming out in the first quarter of 2025 on our Fox
Complex, where we also have a 69,500 meter (budgeted for $9.7
million) drilling campaign underway. We are also moving our Los
Azules copper development project toward a feasibility study in the
first half of 2025 and are contemplating taking McEwen Copper
public after the feasibility study is published (McEwen Mining owns
46.4% of McEwen Copper, Stellantis owns 18.3%, Nuton is a Rio Tinto
venture that owns 17.2% and Rob McEwen owns 12.7% of McEwen
Copper). I believe strongly that the future is very bright for both
copper and gold, and that McEwen Mining is well positioned for
significant growth potential in those metals with our assets. We
look forward to seeing the pending assays from Goliath Resources’
Surebet discovery and their new VMS discovery and we are pleased to
be enthusiastic shareholders of Goliath with this strategic
investment.”
Golddigger Property
The Golddigger Property is 100% controlled and
covers an area of 91,518 hectares in the world-class geological
setting of the Eskay Rift, within 3 kilometers of the Red Line in
the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. This area has hosted some
of Canada’s greatest mines including Eskay Creek, Premier and Snip.
Other significant and well-known deposits in the Golden Triangle
include Brucejack, Copper Canyon, Galore Creek, Granduc, KSM, Red
Chris, and Schaft Creek. Goliath controls 56 kilometers of the Red
Line which is a geologic contact between Triassic age Stuhini rocks
and Jurassic age Hazelton rocks used as key markers when exploring
for gold-copper-silver mineralization.
The Surebet discovery has exceptional continuity
and excellent metallurgy with gold recoveries of 92.2%, with 48.8%
of it as free gold from gravity alone at a 327-micrometer crush (no
cyanide required to recover the gold). The metallurgy completed to
date shows no deleterious elements are present such as mercury or
arsenic.
The Property is in an excellent location in
close proximity to the communities of Alice Arm and Kitsault where
there is a permitted mill site on private property. It is situated
on tide water with direct barge access to Prince Rupert (190
kilometers via the Observatory inlet/Portland inlet). The town of
Kitsault is accessible by road (190 kilometers from Terrace, 300
kilometers from Prince Rupert) and has a barge landing, dock, and
infrastructure capable of housing at least 300 people, including
high-tension power.
Additional infrastructure in the area includes
the Dolly Varden Silver Mine Road (only 7 kilometers to the East of
the Surebet discovery) with direct road access to Alice Arm barge
landing (18 kilometers to the south of the Surebet discovery) and
high-tension power (25 kilometers to the east of Surebet
discovery). The city of Terrace (population 16,000) provides access
to railway, major highways, and airport with supplies (food, fuel,
lumber, etc.), while the town of Prince Rupert (population 12,000)
is located on the west coast and houses an international container
seaport also with direct access to railway and an airport.
About CASERM (Center To Advance The
Science Of Exploration To Reclamation In Mining)
Goliath is a paying member and active supporter
of CASERM, an organization that represents a collaborative venture
between Colorado School of Mines and Virginia Tech aimed at
transforming the way that geoscience data is used in the mineral
resource industry. Research focuses on the integration of diverse
geoscience data to improve decision making across the mine life
cycle, beginning with the exploration for subsurface resources
continuing through mine operation as well as closure and
environmental remediation. As a CASERM member, the Company
requested a study and written report to be performed by Colorado
School of Mines analysing Surebet’s origin of mineralization. The
study confirmed an extensive porphyry feeder source at depth for
the high-grade gold mineralising fluids at Surebet.
