The company said in a statement that it had rejected a 26p a share proposal, having already rejected an earlier proposal on 23 November.
"The SolGold board has carefully considered this proposal along with its advisers, and has unanimously decided to reject this proposal," it said.
"The SolGold board remains confident in SolGold's standalone prospects," it added.
Under UK takeover rules, JCC now has until 26 December to either announce a firm offer or walk away.
