News Release

NORTH ARROW REPORTS NAUJAAT PROJECT BULK SAMPLE HAS BEEN SHIPPED

September 29, 2021 Trading Symbol: TSXV: NAR #21-12

North Arrow Minerals Inc. (TSXV-NAR) (“North Arrow”) reports that a 2,000-tonne bulk sample collected from its

Naujaat Diamond Project, NU has been loaded onto a sealift and is now making its way to the processing laboratory in

Saskatoon, SK. The sample consists of 2,500 bulk sample bags collected from the Q1 -4 kimberlite in July and August, and

delivered to North Arrow’s laydown near the community of Naujaat (Please see North Arrow news release dated August 19,

2021 for details).

Ken Armstrong, President and CEO of North Arrow commented , “Over the last couple of weeks, North Arrow crews have

worked with our transportation contractors to move 2,500 bulk sample bags of kimberlite from our project laydown to the

beach loading zone in the community of Naujaat, and from there onto the annual sealift . The sealift has left Naujaat and is

scheduled to arrive in Montreal in early October. From Montreal, the sample bags will be shipped to the processing

laboratory in Saskatchewan and the overall project remains on schedule for the start of sample processing in mid-October.”

A time lapse video of moving the sample bags from North Arrow’s laydown can be found here.

Mr. Armstrong continued, “ The 2021 bulk sample is an important step in the evaluation of the Q1-4 d iamond deposit.

Diamonds recovered from the sample are intended to confirm the size distribution and character of an important population

of potentially high-value, fancy yellow to orange yellow diamonds. We believe these fancy-coloured diamonds will be a key

value driver for potential future development of the Q1-4 deposit.”

The $5.6M bulk sample program is funded by partner Burgundy Diamond Mines ( ASX-BDM), as part of a June 1, 2020

option agreement under which Burgundy may earn a 40% interest in the Naujaat Project by funding the current bulk sample

program.

About the Naujaat Project

The Naujaat Project is located near the community of Naujaat, Nunavut. A total of eight kimberlite pipes have been

identified within the Project as well as several laterally extensive kimberlite dyke systems. The Q1-4 kimberlite, located just

7 km from the Company’s laydown near the com munity, is the largest and most diamondiferous of the kimberlites

discovered to date and hosts an important , potentially high -value, population of Type IaA - Ib fancy coloured, yellow to

orange yellow, diamonds . At 12.5 ha in surface area, Q1 -4 hosts an estimated inferred mineral resource of 26.1 million

carats total diamond content in 48.8 million tonnes of kimberlite with average +1 DTC total diamond content of 53.6 carats

per hundred tonnes (cpht) extending from surface to a depth of 205m. Delineation dr illing of Q1 -4 suggests significant

potential to expand the resource at depth with the deepest drill hole terminating in kimberlite at a depth of 376m. The reader

is cautioned that m ineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated eco nomic viability. Details on

data verification and resource estimation procedures can be found in the May 2013 technical report filed on www.sedar.com

as well as posted on North Arrow’s website along with details on subsequent exploration efforts on the Project [here].

The Naujaat Diamond Project exploration program is being conducted under the direction of Kenneth Armstrong, P.Geo.

(NWT/NU and ON ), President and CEO of North Arrow and a Qualifi ed Person under NI 43 -101. Mr. Armstrong ha s

reviewed and approved the technical contents of this press release.
