VANCOUVER, MARCH 22, 2007 - J-Pacific Gold Inc. (TSXV - JPN, OTCBB - JPNJF) reports initial results from the 10,000-metre core drilling program at its Montgolfier Project. Located in the Casa Berardi greenstone belt of northwestern Quebec, the Montgolfier Project is 85 kilometres west of Matagami and 40 kilometres east of the Casa Berardi gold mine.

"Gold mineralization in this geological setting can occur at various depths," continued Mr. Ferris. "Now that we've found host rock, we must be persistent to discover those areas where the gold has concentrated."

PROGRAM DETAILS

Target Area No.1

Target Area No. 1, at the west end of the Montgolfier Project, was tested with three holes, to investigate an apparent resistivity low associated with the Casa Berardi Fault. In this area, a historical core hole (85-BM-03) drilled in 1985 by Boulder Mining Resources Inc. (source: GM 43820) had intersected visible gold in a narrow quartz- tourmaline veinlet that yielded 6.3g Au/t over a core length of one metre. Hole JPN07-01 (100 metres west of 85-BM-03) intersected 0.3g Au/t over 16.1 metres in graphitic schists associated with the Casa Berardi Fault CBF. Approximately 20 metres down the hole and north of the fault, a 15-metre zone of quartz-sulphide-tourmaline veining was intersected, at approximately 150 metres vertical depth. The veins consist of decimetre- to metre-scale hydrothermal quartz breccia, with sulphide cement cut by narrow, centimetre-scale quartz-tourmaline veinlets and injected in strongly deformed altered schists. The vein sections contain between five and 25 per cent arsenopyrite and pyrite. Assay samples from this quartz vein zone yielded weakly anomalous gold (approximately 100 parts per billion). Hole JPN07-02 (100 metres north of JPN07-01), drilled to investigate the north contact of the sedimentary basin, yielded 1.1g Au/t over 0.7 metres south of the CBF. Hole JPN07-03 (50 metres west and 66 metres north of JPN07-01), drilled to test the continuity of the quartz-sulphide vein zone from JPN07-01, intersected barren minor quartz-pyrite-arsenopyrite veining over narrower widths, and weak gold anomalies in the graphitic CBF.

The quartz-arsenopyrite-tourmaline hydrothermal breccia intersected by hole JPN07-01 appears to be barren or only weakly anomalous in gold. However, the location of the vein zone, proximal to the CBF and associated with ductile-deformed altered schists and multi-stage hydrothermal texture, suggests the right environment for the presence of quartz vein-type gold mineralization. This vein field, which is buried under 30 to 60 metres of overburden, was intersected at a vertical depth of approximately 150 metres and is open at depth.

Target Area No. 2

Target Area No. 2, approximately two kilometres east of Target Area No. 1, was investigated by three holes. Holes JPN07-04 and JPN07-06 were drilled on a fence, to investigate an apparent resistivity low associated with the Casa Berardi Fault approximately 2.3 kilometres east of hole JPN07-01. This low occurs 100 metres west of a historical hole (H-301A) drilled during the 1990s that yielded a two-metre core length intercept grading 1.77g Au/t. Hole JPN07-04 was drilled toward the north, to probe the northern contact of the Taibi Sedimentary Basin. It intersected 11 metres of barren graphitic schists and ended its course in unaltered metavolcanic rocks. Hole JPN07-06 was drilled northward 130 metres behind hole JPN07-04, to investigate the lateral extension of the weakly auriferous zone intersected by the historical hole H-301A. Three separate graphitic faults associated with the main Casa Berardi Fault were intersected between 248 and 286 metres. The southernmost graphitic structure occurs along the northern contact of a strongly deformed zone of volcanic schists, which is characterized by strong silica and muscovite alteration and disseminated pyrite (traces to seven per cent) that yielded four separate auriferous zones over a 30-metre core length interval: 2.4g Au/t over 1.4 metres, 2.9g Au/t over 1.1 metres, 1.9g Au/t over 8.1 metres, and 1.3g Au/t over 1.6 metres. The interleaving altered schists are weakly anomalous in gold.

The strongly altered gold-bearing schists intersected in hole JPN07-06 can be traced along the CBF over a strike length of at least two kilometres, using historical drilling data from public assessment records.

Hole JPN07-05 was collated approximately two kilometres east of JPN07-06, and was drilled to probe interpreted faulted banded-iron formations near the southern contact of the Taibi sedimentary basin. The hole was lost at approximately one-half its planned 400-metre depth because of technical drilling problems.

BACKGROUND

The drilling program commenced in January 2007 is focused on eight priority target areas generated by SRK Consulting ("SRK"), based on its interpretation of airborne geophysical data acquired in 2005 and the review of historical exploration work. The planned program includes 27 drill holes totalling approximately 10,000 metres, comprising: 11 holes to investigate the main Casa Berardi Fault in five separate areas over a strike length of 15 kilometres; 10 holes to test faulted banded-iron formation within the Taibi Sedimentary Sequence, south of the Casa Berardi Fault; and six holes to probe two major splays of the Casa Berardi Fault that intersect segmented banded-iron formation, in the eastern portion of the property. Drilling is ongoing. Assay results are still pending for 16 additional holes (JPN07-07 to JPN07-22) already completed on the project.

The Montgolfier Project straddles the Casa Berardi Tectonic Zone, approximately 30 kilometres east of the Casa Berardi Mine, where Aurizon Mines Ltd. has outlined a mineral reserve of 4.9 million tonnes grading 7.69g Au/t (equivalent to 1,212,800 oz. Au); with an indicated mineral resource of 2.7 million tonnes grading 5.11g Au/t (equivalent to 446,800 oz. Au); and an inferred mineral resource of 5.7 million tonnes grading 6.50g Au/t (equivalent to 1,184,000 oz. Au) (Source: Aurizon Mines Ltd. website).

The presence of gold reserves and resources at the Casa Berardi Mine does not necessarily indicate that gold resources will be delineated on the Montgolfier Property. However, SRK has extrapolated similarities in the stratigraphy and structural setting of the Montgolfier Property to those of the Casa Berardi Mine, as well as to other occurrences of gold mineralization in the Casa Berardi Tectonic Zone.

Assay samples were collected from NQ-size core cut in half lengthwise with a diamond saw. Assay sample lengths vary from 0.2 to 2.0 metres, depending on geology. Gold assays are performed using fire assay procedures with an atomic absorption finish on a 30-gram charge. Assay results grading above 1.0g Au/t are repeated with a gravimetric finish. J-Pacific employs industry best practices quality assurance and quality control procedures for all its exploration programs. All assays are conducted by Laboratoire Expert Inc. in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec. While Laboratoire Expert is not ISO accredited, it is independent, maintains an internal quality control program and participates annually in CANMET round-robin proficiency testing. Analytical quality control measures include the use of replicate assays, certified reference material samples and blanks in all batches of samples sent for assaying.

The drilling has been contracted to Major Drilling Group International Inc. On-site geological expertise is provided by IOS Services Geoscientifiques Inc., a Quebec-based geological consulting company, under the supervision of SRK's Dr. Jean-Francois Couture, P.Geo., J-Pacific's qualified person for this project for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101, who has reviewed and approved this news release.
