Toronto, Ontario – August 8, 2024 – Goliath Resources Limited (TSX-V: GOT) (OTCQB: GOTRF) (FSE: B4IF) (the “Company” or “Goliath”) is pleased to report it has received a lead order from its strategic investor, Crescat Capital LLC, the Company’s single largest shareholder. Goliath intends to raise up to $3,000,000 through a non-brokered private placement.
Based on exceptional assay results and the abundance of visible gold in a majority of the holes drilled thus far, the Company will be expanding the drill program at the Surebet Discovery.
100% of the first 8 holes drilled to date during the 2024 drill season have intercepted continuous strong mineralization in the targeted veins. Including mineralization that suggests the drilling has tapped into the heat engine source of the gold mineralizing system at the Surebet Discovery. Abundant visible gold up to 1.30 mm in size has been identified in multiple intervals in 6 out of the first 8 holes of 2024, corresponding to 75% of the holes drilled thus far. A majority of the gold seen is hosted further downhole within the volcanics above the valley floor, and gold mineralization remains open in all directions for further new discoveries.
Goliath’s largest shareholder, Crescat Capital, who currently owns ~18% (P/D) of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company, will be participating in this placement pursuant to a pre-emptive right granted to them by the Goliath.
Goliath intends to raise up to $3,000,000 through a non-brokered private placement in a combination of: (i) Non-Flow-Through shares (NFT) to be sold at a price of $1.11 each and Flow-Through shares (FT) to be sold at a price of $1.28 that will qualify as a flow-through share within the meaning of Subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada).
The Company intends to use the proceeds for general operating expenses and exploration related programs on its properties located in and around the Golden Triangle of northwestern British Columbia.
The proceeds from the FT offering will be used for Canadian exploration expenses as such term is defined in paragraph (f) of the definition of Canadian exploration expense in Subsection 66.1(6) of the tax act, flow-through mining expenditures as defined in Subsection 127(9) of the tax act that will qualify as flow-through mining expenditures, and B.C. flow-through mining expenditures as defined in Subsection 4.721(1) of the Income Tax Act (British Columbia), which will be incurred on or before Dec. 31, 2025, and renounced with an effective date no later than Dec. 31, 2024.

MFTS) tax credit allows BC Residents who invest in flow-through shares to claim a provincial non-refundable tax credit of 20% of their B.C. flow-through mining expenditures. B.C. flow-through mining expenditures are specific exploration expenses incurred by a PBC and renounced by a corporation issuing the flow-through shares.
