#1JAPAN O GOLD CORP. CORPORATE PRESENTATION March 2024 TSXV | JG OTCQB | JGLDF#2FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain of the statements made and information contained herein is "forward-looking information" within the meaning of the British Columbia Securities Act. These statements relate to future events or the Company's future performance. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, may be forward-looking statements. Generally, these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "anticipates", "plans", "budget", "scheduled", "continue", "estimates", "forecasts", "expect", "is expected", "project", "propose", "potential", "targeting", "intends", "believes" or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might", or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved" or the negative connotation thereof. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. The Company believes that the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this presentation should not be unduly relied upon by readers, as actual results may vary. Specifically, this presentation contains forward-looking statements, pertaining to the following: capital expenditure programs, development of resources, treatment under governmental and taxation regimes, expectations regarding the Company's ability to raise capital, expenditures to be made by the Company on its properties and work plans to be conducted. Concerning forward-looking statements listed above and contained in the presentation, the Company has made assumptions regarding, among other things: uncertainties relating to receiving mining, exploration and other permits in Japan such as the timing and granting of prospecting rights; the Company's ability to convert prospecting rights into digging rights within the timeframe prescribed by the Mining Act; the impact of increasing competition; unpredictable changes to the market prices for gold, copper, and other minerals; exploration and developments costs for its properties in Japan; the availability of additional financing and farm-in or joint-venture partners; anticipated results of exploration and development activities; and the Company's ability to obtain additional financing on satisfactory terms. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this presentation: volatility in the market price for minerals; uncertainties associated with estimating resources; geological, technical, drilling and processing problems; liabilities and risks, including environmental liabilities and risks, inherent in mineral operations; fluctuations in currencies and interest rates; incorrect assessments of the value of acquisitions; unanticipated results of exploration activities; competition for, amongst other things, capital, undeveloped lands and skilled personnel; lack of availability of additional financing and farm-in or joint venture partners; volatility in the market due to the Covid-19 pandemic; and unpredictable weather conditions. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing lists of factors are not exhaustive. The Company does not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except in accordance with applicable securities laws. The technical information in this document has been reviewed by Japan Gold's Vice President of Exploration, Andrew Rowe, BAppSc, FAusIMM, FSEG, who has sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralization under consideration and qualifies as a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.

Ltd.'s Hishikari Mine is the only operating gold mine in Japan ■ These historic mining areas are underexplored using modern mining methods 3 Japan Gold Corp. | Corporate Presentation | March 2024 JAPAN GOLD CORP.#4JAPAN'S FIVE GOLD MINING DISTRICTS Numerous Shallow Historic Gold Mines O Kyushu 4 Japan Gold Corp. | Corporate Presentation | March 2024 Honshu Hokkaido#5JAPAN GOLD'S PROJECT PORTFOLIO 35 Projects Covering ~3,000 km² ○ Kyushu 5 Japan Gold Corp. | Corporate Presentation | March 2024 Honshu Hokkaido#6BARRICK ALLIANCE PROJECTS Potential to Host a Tier 1 or Tier 2 Orebody Kyushu 6 Japan Gold Corp. | Corporate Presentation | March 2024 Honshu Hokkaido#7BARRICK ALLIANCE PROJECTS Advancing a Pipeline of Prospects Ebino 15,741 ha 00 Togi 3,990 ha Hakuryu 4,901 ha Aibetsu 14,646 ha 00 Kyushu Mizobe 5,163 ha Honshu Hokkaido Sumitomo Metal Mining Co.
