Japan Gold discovers geophysical anomalies at Hakuryu Project, Japan

Japan Gold Corp. [TSXV: JG; OTCQB: JGLDF] reported that it has completed its review of the Controlled-Source Audio Magnetotellurics (CSAMT) and natural source (AMT) geophysical survey results from the December 2025 program at the Hakuryu Project in Hokkaido, Japan.

The survey results identified multiple resistivity anomalies that correlate with previously mapped surface alteration zones and projected vein trends. These resistivity anomalies extend across multiple survey lines, suggesting continuity along strike within the proposed target areas. The confirmation of multiple anomalies at depth along the approximately five-km prospective strike length supports proceeding with drill pad preparation in advance of a planned drilling campaign to further evaluate the project area.

The next phase of drilling is being designed to follow up on the anomalies identified in the recent geophysical survey, as well as the 2025 drill hole DDH-HAK-001 which intersected 16.15 g/t gold over 0.60 metres from 103.8 metres downhole (a re-assay of the same interval returned 24.10 g/t gold over 0.60 metres).

The Hakuryu Project is located at the southern end of the 16-km-long Konomai gold field. The northern and central portions of the Konomai vein field were historically developed and mined by Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. between 1915 and 1973, reportedly producing approximately 2.35 Moz of gold at an average grade of 6.4 g/t.

Japan Gold is a Canadian mineral company focused on the exploration and discovery of high-grade epithermal gold deposits across the main islands of Japan. The company holds a significant portfolio of tenements covering areas with known gold occurrences, history of mining and prospective for high-grade epithermal gold mineralization in one of the most stable and under explored countries in the world.
