About the Kraaipan Gold Project, Botswana
The Kraaipan Gold Project is comprised of 1,266 km2 of mineral concessions covering the 60 km strike extent of the Kraaipan
Greenstone Belt in Botswana. The KGB is a highly prospective Archean greenstone belt that straddles the Botswana - South
Africa border, with proven mineral endowment including Harmony Gold’s Kalgold gold mine in South Africa, approximately
40 km south of the Project. Past exploration of the northern extent of the KGB has been challenged by Kalahari Desert sand
cover, impacting approximately 80% of the KGB within Botswana . The sand cover, while extensive, is typically less tha n
20m over much of the Project but can locally reach depths of up to 70m. Limited past exploration of the KGB in Botswana
has identified local gold mineralization in shallow drilling of exposed banded iron formation (BIF) targets. A focus of new
exploration will be to identify BIF-related gold mineralisation beneath the sand cover. To do this, North Arrow will have
access to Rockman Resources Limited’s highly experienced Botswana-based exploration team, who are capable of deploying
cost-effective proprietary exploration solutions including drone geophysics , truck-mounted drilling and, potentially deep
machine learning technologies to rapidly advance the Project.
As detailed in a news release dated October 28, 2024, North Arrow is currently working to earn a 60% interest in the Project
by investing US$5 million by June 30, 2027, including a firm commitment to invest US$1 million by June 30, 2025.
