Japan Gold Launches 3D IP Geophysical
Survey at Bajo Project
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 26, 2026) -
Japan Gold Corp. (TSXV: JG)
(OTCQB: JGLDF)
("
Japan Gold
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to announce that it has commenced a
3D Induced Polarization ("3D IP") and resistivity geophysical survey at its Bajo Project on the southern
island of Kyushu, Japan. The 3D IP survey is designed to identify and refine drill targeting for future drill
programs.
The 3D IP survey is being conducted by Zonge Engineering and Research Organization (Aust) Pty Ltd.,
following the recent completion of a CSAMT/AMT survey at the Company's Hakuryu Project in Hokkaido.
The 3D IP survey covers a targeted area measuring approximately 8 km by 5 km and comprises roughly
24 line-kilometres. It will utilize GDD receivers and a transmitter to support multi-channel data acquisition
and high-quality signal recording. The survey grid has been designed to support full 3D inversion
modeling of the subsurface while also allowing individual 2D line sections to be evaluated. This detailed
3D dataset is expected to enhance interpretation of the subsurface and guide the Company in refining
exploration targets and prioritizing follow-up work.
The Bajo Project contains the historic Bajo Mine, which historically produced approximately 421,000
ounces of gold. The majority of production came from the Sakuru-Hi vein, which reportedly yielded
grades of 125.9 g/t Au and 557 g/t Ag
