READ THE FULL GOTRF RESEARCH REPORT
Goliath Resources Ltd. (OTC:GOTRF) has published an exploration update confirming further expansion of its Surebet project in the Golden Triangle, and Zacks Small-Cap Research is issuing an updated report covering the results and an updated valuation model.
The July 15, 2026 update reports that step-out drilling has extended the Bonanza Zone by 750 meters to the southwest and the Golden Gate Zone by 600 meters, with both zones remaining open along strike and at depth. Visible gold was logged in 6 of the first 10 holes of the season, consistent with the intercept frequency the property has shown historically. The Company has also consolidated its geological model into five named zones, Bonanza, Surebet, Golden Gate, Whopper, and Eldorado, comprising 46 stacked gold-rich lodes and veins, alongside a distinct population of gold-bearing Eocene dykes.

A re-assay of the full 2025 drill program, incorporating polymetallic credits from silver, copper, lead, and zinc, increased gold-equivalent grades by an average of 16.5% over the previously reported gold-only values, with a 56-hole subset showing a 19.6% uplift. Separately, in March 2026 the Company accelerated its option to acquire 100% of Surebet and reduced the underlying net smelter return royalty from 3% to 2%, raising the resource threshold that triggers royalty payments and reducing potential future payments to the Optionors by an estimated US$2.0 million.
The 2026 program is fully funded and underway, targeting approximately 50,000 meters of drilling across seven rigs, with objectives that include lateral and vertical expansion of known lodes and testing of the interpreted Motherlode feeder intrusive source.
The report also details our updated valuation approach: an area-based resource estimate derived from the Company's plan-view lode outlines, cross-checked against our prior ounces-in-the-ground methodology, and a discounted per-ounce framework that produces a sensitivity range across gold price and resource-growth scenarios. We maintain our $4.90 per-share target.
The full report includes the resource-by-lode breakdown, the valuation sensitivity tables, upcoming catalysts through year-end, and the risk factors associated with early-stage exploration at Surebet. Read the complete report for the detailed analysis.
