New Gold Vein Discovered in Japan for the First Time in Half a Century
In March 2026, Canadian exploration company Irving Resources announced the discovery of multiple high-grade ores in Kagoshima Prefecture.
In Hokkaido, the company and Japan Gold, another Canadian firm, have also discovered high-grade ore.
To reach commercial mining in the future, the companies must conduct further exploratory drilling to confirm sufficient reserves, and each firm will continue its investigations.
