Golden Goliath Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: GNG)(PINK SHEETS:
GGTH-F) For immediate release.
Golden Goliath is pleased to announce that it has commenced
fieldwork on its 100% owned Nopalera property. The property has
been long held within the Company's Uruachic Camp in the Sierra
Madre Mountains of northwestern Mexico. Nopalera was defined
several years ago as a porphyry target, which is unique to this
part of the world as most mineralization is vein hosted. That is,
until the recent discovery of Orisyvo by Fresnillo PLC on the
property adjacent to Nopalera (To see a map of the Golden Goliath
claims, go to the following link:
http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/GNG0323.pdf). Orisyvo has been
described as a porphyry deposit.
Fresnillo PLC is the world's largest primary silver producer,
and as such, provides limited disclosure of its advanced
exploration programs. However, what they have disclosed about
Orisyvo is:
-- Indicated & inferred resources of 2.7M ounces of gold in oxides and
6.51M ounces of gold in sulphides
-- Disseminated gold values delineated over a 1 x 1.5 km area, and through
400 metres vertical extent, with grades ranging 0.5 to 2.5 g/t gold
-- Permitting is in process for an exploration adit to initiate underground
exploration in 1H 2011
-- Pilot plant to be established in 2011
-- Additional resources identified with an updated scoping study expected
early in 2012
The Fresnillo claims that host the Orisyvo deposit border Golden
Goliath's Nopalera claim on its eastern edge. The proximity of
Orisyvo and a similar geological model has management very excited
on the potential of Nopalera (To see a map of the Nopalera
Exploration in Progress, go to the following link:

The significance of Fresnillo's discovery and the potential for
the district has not gone unnoticed by some of the majors. Penoles,
the second largest Mexican mining company behind Fresnillo, has now
staked claims that completely surround our Uruachic Camp.
Agnico-Eagle Mines has optioned a portion of our Uruachic Camp and
is one of our major shareholders. This makes the area an important
new emerging gold district with world class gold deposit potential,
three major mining companies actively involved and Golden Goliath
holding a substantial land position in the heart of it.
