Jargon is very formal technical language specific to an exact subject, not geographical, like Computer Science Jargon, or Biotechnology Jargon. Normally you only understand the Jargon if you are educated/experienced in that specific subject. Slang is very different, very informal, and somewhat geographical, ( French Slang and Quebec Slang are very different). e.g, you are more likely to hear Slang being spoken by a group of Surfer-Dudes down at the beach, such as "my arms are totally noodled dude" meaning "my arms are very tired".
