Golden Goliath Samples 23.65 g/t gold & 141 g/t silver over a
2.45 metre true width


HIGHLIGHTS

Gold grades of 174 channel samples average 1.70 g/t gold and 67 g/t silver over
151 metres in the newly opened Los Hilos West tunnel within the Filo de Oro
trend on the Las Bolas property.

A high grade zone of 12 samples averaged 8.50 g/t gold and 129 g/t silver
over an 8.32 metre length. Three consecutive channel samples returned 23.65
g/t gold & 141 g/t silver over a 2.45 metre true width
.

Vancouver, Canada, March 4, 2010 - Golden Goliath Resources Ltd. (TSX.V:GNG)
(US:GGTH-F) For immediate release

Los Hilos Area of the Las Bolas Property:

Golden Goliath’s exploration team continues its efforts to expand the mineralization
along the Filo de Oro trend to define a gold/silver bulk-tonnage deposit. The Company
has recently received assay results from both underground and surface sampling. The
Filo de Oro trend cross cuts the main east west trending mineralized structures making
up the Las Bolas property. The Los Hilos West tunnel is located within this trend and
has been rehabilitated and extends a total length of 192 metres.

The latest underground sampling results combined with previous channel sampling
within Los Hilos West total 174 channel samples over the initial 151 metres of the
tunnel. The combined average grade is 1.70 g/t gold and 67 g/t silver, including a high
grade zone of 12 samples averaging 8.50 g/t gold and 129 g/t silver over 8.32 metres.
The sampling density from 80 metres to 144 metres along the length of the tunnel
averages one sample every 4.5 metres. The mineralization is still open since the last
three consecutive samples average 1.11 g/t gold and 30 g/t silver over 2.25 metres.
Further assay results are pending for the remainder of the tunnel.

Situated 105 metres vertically below the Mosca de Plata vein and within the Filo de Oro
trend, previous results from 48 channel samples within the Los Hilos West tunnel
averaged 2.07 g/t gold and 98.61 g/t silver. This section included a higher grade
component of 3.90 g/t gold and 133.82 g/t silver over 36.5 metres and 6.78 g/t gold and
220.35 g/t silver over 19.06 metres. The vertical continuity of the mineralization
combined with a high grade vein component give the Filo de Oro trend significant
potential for a bulk tonnage deposit. Filo de Oro is one of the four defined mineralized
trends on the Las Bolas property.

The Los Hilos area includes the Los Hilos, Mosca de Plata and Palo Dulce vein systems
which in turn are part of the larger NE-SW Frijolar mineralized trend. The north-south
Filo de Oro trend intersects the Frijolar trend and the high grade vein systems act as
sweeteners for the Filo de Oro bulk tonnage potential.

Filo de Oro– Bulk Tonnage Target

Surface sampling and preliminary geologic and alteration mapping indicates that the
Filo de Oro trend is over 1,300 metres long and 200 metres wide. The current surface
sampling results cover an area that is over 300 metres long and 180 metres wide. To
date 476 surface rock chip samples taken from this area average 0.49 g/t gold and 22
g/t silver. The current surface sampling program has returned results as high as 7.5 g/t
and 1525 g/t silver over 0.8 metres. At Filo de Oro a grand total of 825 surface and
underground channel samples, including Los Hilos, Mosca de Plata and Palo Dulce
veins samples, have returned an average of 1.50 g/t gold equivalent (assuming 100%
silver recovery and a 1:60 gold to silver ratio) or 0.77 g/t gold and 44 g/t silver. The bulk
tonnage grade is comparable to Fresnillo PLC’s nearby Orisyvo deposit of 2.8 million
ounces of gold (69MT at 1.3 g/t gold). The Company will continue to expand the surface
sampling along the generally north–south trending Filo de Oro trend.

Previous surface sampling north of the Los Hilos tunnel, within the main Filo de Oro
trend, included chip sampling of six exposed outcrops returning an average of 1.13 g/t
gold, and 87.66 g/t silver. This sampling extended the established strike length of the
Filo de Oro trend to 790 metres. Historic sampling indicates that the mineralization
continues for at least another 290 metres to the south of the current sampling, making
the total known mineralized strike length of the Filo de Oro trend 1330 metres.
Recent access road construction on the Filo de Oro trend has uncovered more old
workings which will now be rehabilitated, mapped and sampled. The numerous old
workings reflect the extent of mineralization in this area. Please refer to the map for

Paul Sorbara, Golden Goliath CEO, commented ”The known size of the Las Bolas
mineralized system has expanded very significantly as a result of our work at Filo de
Oro over the last several months. The model now includes this disseminated, golddominant
system overlying the original high grade silver and base metal roots of the 12
previously known Las Bolas vein systems. We are looking forward to an aggressive
exploration program this year including surface and underground drilling focusing on the
Filo de Oro gold/silver bulk-tonnage disseminated target, as well as the 12 Las Bolas
vein systems that are documented in the NI 43-101 report completed on the property
last year. That report did not include the Filo de Oro trend. When the current
exploration program is finished, the 43-101 report will be updated to include Filo de Oro
trend. Our goal is to significantly increase the inferred resource documented in the
report and properly define the potential target on the Las Bolas property, including Filo
de Oro. Las Bolas was an exciting property before we started work on this new area,
and now the picture has been greatly improved. We are very, very pleased with the
situation.”

Other Target Areas:

Golden Goliath’s property portfolio encompasses the large Uruachic mining district
situated in the heart of the Sierra Madre precious metal belt. Many of the Company’s
claims host drill targets that remain to be tested. Uruachic is surrounded by numerous
other precious metal deposits in various stages of exploration and development,
including Agnico Eagle’s Pinos Altos deposit, located 45 northwest of Las Bolas.
Agnico Eagle is Golden Goliath’s second largest shareholder with over 8% of the stock
and Agnico’s Vice President on new projects, Marc Legault, is a Director of Golden
Goliath.

Another nearby project of particular significance is Fresnillo PLC’s Orisyvo deposit
which hosts a reported 2.8 million ounces of gold and is only 7 kilometres from Golden
Goliath’s property (source: Fresnillo PLC’s website, www.fresnilloplc.com).
