GNG Golden Goliath Resources Ltd

Golden Goliath Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:GNG)(PINK SHEETS:GGTH-F) is pleased
to announce that diamond drilling at the Las Bolas property continues to cut
carbonaceous manto style mineralization in an area which coincides with an IP
chargeablity anomaly that is spread over an area approximately 1,033m long and
533m wide and is open to the north. Each hole normally cuts at least two manto
units, which can be over 6 metres in apparent true thickness. These carbonaceous
dark lutite with intercalated graphite, manto-like units can carry extremely
high silver and gold grades, such as in hole BD-08-3 which had a manto section
that graded 9.87 gms gold/tonne and 3,090 gms silver/tonne. The Company is
currently compiling and awaiting results from this drilling and hopes to be able
to release several holes soon. Surface work at Las Bolas also continues to
generate new results and drill targets. Nine contiguous, 3-metre chip samples
from new road cut between the two Frijolar tunnels has just returned 236 gms
silver/tonne over a length of 36 metres. Two drill holes have now been spotted
at this site, which brings the total of currently spotted holes waiting for
drilling to fifteen.


On the San Timoteo property the surface diamond drill is currently testing an
ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emmission & Reflection) target. The ASTER
analysis report for the Uruachi district was written by Ward E. Kilby P.Geo of
Cal Data Ltd., Kelowna, BC. The report has delineated some highly altered zones
& important mineral spectra that are similar to the Carlin Trend Deposits and
other large hydrothermal systems. Following the ASTER work, the drill will then
move to a target generated by the IP survey on San Timoteo II. Access road and
drill pad building has exposed an altered and mineralized section that will
require at least two or three holes to test.


Senior consultant to the Company, R.H. McMillan PhD., P.Eng. (Ont.), P.Geo
(B.C.), who has agreed to do the Company's resource calculations, has
recommended detailed underground mapping of the high grade mineralized zones
with the old San Martin mine tunnel prior to underground drilling of these
zones. This detailed work is now underway. Following these rich zones from the
surface, which is 175 metres above the tunnel on a steep hillside, has proven
difficult as only limited drill sites are available. Underground drilling will
be much more efficient and less expensive. A drilling company specializing in
underground drilling has already visited the site and the Company is waiting for
their proposal.


Commenting on the latest round of drill results Golden Goliath's CEO, Mr. Paul
Sorbara, stated: "After several years of methodically working this property our
efforts are now starting to pay off. The Manto type structures we have
identified and are in the process of expanding at Las Bolas are very encouraging
due to the extended sections showing much thicker cross sections of
mineralization. At San Timoteo, we expect to accelerate that program as well as
we move the drill head into the San Martin tunnel and start attacking the high
grade mineralization we are starting to see at depth with much greater
precision.


CORONA PROPERTY UPDATE

Apart from the Company's own work in the Uruachic camp, Comstock Metals Ltd. has
carried out extensive work on Golden Goliath's Corona property. Under the terms
of the three year option agreement Comstock has the right to earn a 60% interest
in the property, with another 15% being available if they complete a feasibility
study.


Comstock's work to date has been very encouraging, with field work in 2008
returning channel samples grading 8.77 g/t gold over 5m true width, at a
previously untested area west of Alcappara zone, 814 g/t silver over 8m true
width (oxide zone) south of in the NE Zone, 114 g/t silver, 2.28% Cu and 0.2 g/t
gold over 10m true width in a new zone south west of La Mula. In 2007 Comstock
samples averaged 22.25 g/t gold, 667.5 g/t silver, 16.3% Pb and 1.4% Zn over
0.5m in the Esperanza zone. Comstock is planning on drill testing these newly
discovered zones, after going public in the fourth quarter of 2008, along with
previously drilled areas by Golden Goliath Resources in 2002-2003. Comstock
President, Rasool Mohammad, says, "Comstock is very pleased with the results to
date and is looking forward to our upcoming major exploration program on the
Corona property."


UPDATE ON LA CRUZ

At the Company's La Cruz property, Pan American Silver's Mexican subsidiary,
Minera Corner Bay, has notified the Company that they will be discontinuing
exploration activities per the option agreement. The Company is waiting to
receive the report on the work they conducted for further analysis.


Commenting on the recent development, Paul Sorbara, CEO and President for Golden
Goliath stated: "While we are obviously disappointed that Pan American has
decided not to continue their exploration program at La Cruz, we still see
plenty of potential in the property based on both good results from previous
surface testing as well as the historical production that occurred on the
property. Pan American's involvement resulted in the expansion of the land
package via staking by at least 100% in terms of gross acreage, and we benefit
from this as the entire land position will be transferred back Golden Goliath.
As our own exploration capacity is currently being fully utilized at Uruachic,
we will probably be looking to option La Cruz out to another joint venture
partner in the future."
