After a successful country-wide screening program, Japan Gold is highly encouraged that Barrick has selected 6 projects with the potential to host Tier 1 or Tier 2 ore bodies and is looking forward to aggressively advance these projects. Additionally, the Company has recently completed drilling on two new targets within the Ikutahara Project after the outstanding high-grade findings at the Ryuo prospect. The stage is set for a very exciting 2023.
