TORONTO, June 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Goliath Resources Limited (TSX-V: GOT) (OTCQB: GOTRF) (FSE: B4IF) (the “Company” or “Goliath”) is pleased to report it has mobilized for its 2024 exploration / drilling campaign and is planning on 15,000 meters of diamond drilling including three maiden drill programs at its 100% controlled Golddigger Project. This project is on tide water in a world class geological setting near Stewart, in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. The Homestake Ridge Deposit & Dolly Varden Silver Mine (Dolly Varden Silver Corp.), and the Kinskuch Project (Hecla Mining Company) are in close proximity.

Key Points: 
  • The Golddigger Property sits on tidewater with barge access to Prince Rupert (190km south) and close to infrastructure.
  • This project is on tide water in a world class geological setting near Stewart, in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia.
  • The maiden drill campaign in 2021 totaling 5,338 meters intercepted significant widths and gold mineralization in 100% of the holes drilled.
  • All of these new untested targets provide for additional blue-sky and material drill discovery potential for this year.

I tried the physio and did the recommended exercises diligently, and my knee pain and function returned to almost normal.

Key Points: 
  • I tried the physio and did the recommended exercises diligently, and my knee pain and function returned to almost normal.
  • More broadly, a review of 53 placebo-controlled surgery trials found that sham surgery was as good as the real thing in over half of the studies.
  • Sham knee and back surgery works as well as real surgery for pain.
  • Fake laser surgery works as well as real laser surgery to stop gastrointestinal bleeding.

Three reasons ethicists (wrongly) reject it

What causes landslides? Can we predict them to save lives?

While it is too early for official confirmation, estimates place the death toll between 690 and 2,000 people, with thousands more missing.

Key Points: 
  • While it is too early for official confirmation, estimates place the death toll between 690 and 2,000 people, with thousands more missing.
  • That only a few bodies have been recovered serves as a tragic reminder of the destructive power of these events.
  • What causes these devastating events and why are they so sudden and unpredictable?

What causes landslides?

  • Depending on where the slope fails, the material sliding down can be just a few cubic metres or a few
    million cubic metres in volume.
  • This is why PNG is so prone to landslides, as it sits on an active fault and is subjected to heavy rainfalls.
  • Another adverse effect of water is erosion: the constant action of waves undercuts coastal slopes, causing them to fail.
  • For example, deforestation has a negative impact on slope stability, as tree roots naturally reinforce the ground and drain water out.

Why can’t we predict landslides?

  • The Enga landslide and the thousands of deadly and costly landslides occurring every year worldwide suggest so.
  • You would need a prediction for earthquakes and rainfall, in addition to a perfect knowledge of the slope-forming geomaterial.
  • This is an inevitable source of uncertainty when trying to predict how much material might slip.
  • Unfortunately, all the money in the world can’t buy accurate landslide predictions – especially in remote parts of the world.
