Japan Gold (TSXV: JG) has successfully completed a controlled-source audio magnetotellurics and natural source geophysical survey at the Hakuryu project in Hokkaido, Japan.
The program saw a total of 34 line-kilometres flown, with the survey conducted by Zonge Engineering and Research Organization. Data from that survey was then utilized to produce high-resolution images of resistivity for the subsurface geology at the project, which will be used for drill targeting under the next exploration campaign.
That campaign is set to build on a successful 2025 exploration program which saw a total of three drill holes conducted across 565.7 metres in aggregate. Highlights from that program include hole DDH-HAK-001, which intersected 24.10 g/t gold over 0.60 metres from a depth of 103.8 metres, and DDH-HAK-002, which drilled 1.52 g/t gold over 3.30 metres from a depth of 164.2 metres.

Mineralization intersected at Hakuryu is said to be associated with a zone of hydrothermal brecciation which is found on the hanging wall side of a well-developed fault zone. Both holes are associated with the same structural zone, with continuity identified over 145 metres of strike.
Hakuryu is found at the southern end of the Konomai gold field, which hosts the historic Konomai vein field. The field was last mined from 1915 to 1973 by Sumitomo Metal Mining, who produced 2.35 million ounces of gold at an average grade of 6.4 g/t.
Japan Gold last traded at $0.125 on the TSX Venture.
