J-PACIFIC CONTRACTS SRK CONSULTING
FOR MONTGOLFIER EXPLORATION STUDY
J-Pacific Gold Inc. (“J-Pacific”) is pleased to announce that it has contracted SRK Consulting (SRK) to develop a comprehensive exploration plan for the Montgolfier Project. A compilation of the Montgolfier exploration data into a digital database will provide a platform for a more accurate understanding of previous exploration activities, and its evaluation will be used to develop and prioritize exploration targets.
The Montgolfier Project is located in northwestern Quebec approximately 12 kilometres east of the Casa Berardi Mine block, where Aurizon Mines Ltd. has outlined a 1.5 million ounce gold resource, which it is rapidly advancing towards a production decision. The property consists of 112 staked claims and 32 map designated cells (totalling 3,552 hectares) in Montgolfier and Orvilliers Townships, Quebec. The mining town of Matagami is located 85 kilometres to the east. The project straddles the Casa Berardi deformation zone over a strike length of approximately 25 kilometres, and is underlain by stratigraphy considered similar to that, which produced 690,000 ounces of gold at the Casa Berardi Mine.
SRK is a well-established independent firm of geological and mining consultants with offices worldwide, including Toronto and Vancouver. SRK clients include mining and exploration companies, financial institutions, governments, law firms and individual investors. Exploration targeting for the Montgolfier Project, will be conducted under the supervision of Dr. Jean-Francois Couture, P.Geo., who is a Principal Geologist with SRK. He is an accomplished ore deposit geologist with over 20 years of experience who combines both scientific research and practical exploration experience. With SRK, Dr. Couture has completed related assignments for various mining companies, including recent work in the Casa Berardi region.
J-Pacific expects to complete the exploration study by late summer, which will be followed by plans for an exploration drilling program during the winter of 2004-2005.
