## Minestarters Atlas summary

North Arrow Minerals has reported strong drill results from its Kraaipan Gold Project in Botswana, confirming wide and continuous gold mineralization at Targets AE and AF. Key intercepts include 12m grading 1.71 g/t Au within 27m at 1.11 g/t Au at Target AE, and 9m grading 4.04 g/t Au at Target AF, with mineralization remaining open along strike and at depth. The company also announced the discovery of a new gold-bearing zone at Target AE, underscoring the project's significant exploration potential.

Reasoning: North Arrow's latest drill results from the Kraaipan Gold Project in Botswana are highly positive, confirming significant strike continuity and wide zones of gold mineralization at Targets AE and AF. The presence of multiple high-grade intercepts, the discovery of a new gold-bearing zone, and the open nature of the mineralization along strike and at depth all point to strong exploration success and potential for resource growth. The analogy to a nearby multi-million-ounce operation further enhances the project's prospectivity, despite the lack of explicit true width for each intercept.

- Positive factor: Confirmation of wide, continuous gold mineralization along significant strike lengths at both Target AE \(260m\) and AF \(450m\).

- Positive factor: Multiple high-grade intercepts, including 12m at 1.71 g/t Au within 27m at 1.11 g/t Au at Target AE, and 9m at 4.04 g/t Au at Target AF.

- Positive factor: Discovery of a new, undrilled gold-bearing zone at Target AE with high surface grab sample results \(up to 6.7 g/t Au\).

- Positive factor: Mineralization remains open along strike and at depth at both targets, indicating further exploration potential.

- Positive factor: The style of mineralization is analogous to Harmony Gold's multi-million-ounce Kalgold operation, suggesting significant potential.

- Negative factor: True widths are estimated at 50-75% of drilled intervals, not explicitly stated for each intercept, which introduces some uncertainty.

## Classification and evidence

**QA/QC Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Why it applies: The release explicitly states that samples were shipped to ALS's laboratory in Johannesburg, South Africa using industry-standard chain-of-custody protocols, and QA/QC protocols include ALS's internal controls as well as Rockman's field controls, including the insertion of duplicates, certified reference materials \(CRM\), and blanks.

Evidence · text

> Samples were allocated unique random sample numbers, sealed and shipped to ALS's laboratory in Johannesburg, South Africa using industry-standard chain-of-custody protocols. Following an initial coarse crush \(CRU-21\), the entire sample is then pulverized \(PUL-21\) to better than 85% passing a 75-micron screen prior to geochemical analysis. All samples are analyzed for gold by fire assay with an ICP-AES finish, method code Au-ICP22 \(50-gram sample\). Samples returning gold values over 10 ppm are subjected to ore-grade check assays using fire assay and a gravimetric finish using method code Au-GRA22 \(50-gram sample\). Samples are also subjected to lithium borate fusion and acid digestion for whole-rock analysis of major and trace elements by ICP-AES \(major elements\) and ICP-MS \(trace elements\); method codes ME-ICP06 and ME-MS81, respectively. In addition, a suite of base metals and other trace elements not included in the ME-MS81 method are analysed by ICP-AES on four-acid digestions \(method code ME-4ACD81\). QA/QC protocols include ALS's own internal quality assurance controls as well as Rockman's field controls, including the insertion of duplicates and certified reference materials \(CRM\), each at a rate of roughly one per 20 samples. QA/QC data are evaluated on receipt for failures, and appropriate action is taken if results for duplicates, CRMs and blanks fall outside allowed tolerances.

**QP/CP Signed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience.

Why it applies: Dr. John Armstrong, Ph.D., P.Geo. \(NWT/NU\), President and Chief Operating Officer of North Arrow and a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approved the contents of this press release.

Evidence · text

> North Arrow's exploration programs are conducted under the direction of Dr. John Armstrong, Ph.D., P.Geo. \(NWT/NU\), President and Chief Operating Officer of North Arrow and a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. Dr. Armstrong has reviewed and approves the contents of this press release.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The release states that 'Mineralization is open along strike and at depth at both targets' and discusses 'Rotation 3 regional drilling targeting new regional opportunities' and 'developing areas for additional RC and potential core drilling to better understand the structural setting, fault offsets, and the relationships between veining, alteration and gold mineralization.'

Evidence · text

> Mineralization is open along strike and at depth at both targets, the presence of mineralised hanging wall and footwall zones to the main targets is observed at both AE and AF.

**Exploration Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Story-specific tag

Definition: No canonical definition is currently available.

Why it applies: The document describes the drilling as part of the '2026 exploration program', mentions 'confirms strike continuity', 'open along strike and at depth', and 'Rotation 3 regional drilling now underway targeting new regional opportunities'.

Evidence · text

> North Arrow ... reports assay results from Rotation 2 reverse circulation \("RC"\) drilling at Targets AE and AF and the discovery of an exposed gold-bearing zone in the hanging wall of Target AE, as part of the Company's US$2.3 million 2026 exploration program at the Kraaipan Gold Project \(" Kraaipan "\) in southern Botswana.

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states that 'Reported intercepts are drilled widths; true widths are estimated at 50-75% of the drilled interval,' indicating that true widths are not provided for individual intercepts.

Evidence · text

> Reported intercepts are drilled widths; true widths are estimated at 50-75% of the drilled interval.

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: Several narrow intercepts show exceptional grades, such as 1m at 13.9 g/t Au \(KR26-040\) and 1m at 10.3 g/t Au \(KR26-021\), which are well above the exceptional threshold for open-pit gold.

Evidence · text

> Individual RC composite chip samples returned gold values of up to 10.3 g/t Au \(KR26-021 10.3 g/t Au from 17-18 m\) and 13.9 g/t Au \(KR26-040 13.9 g/t Au from 42-43 m\)

Reasoning: This intercept of 10m at 0.46 g/t Au is a weak to moderate result in terms of grade, but its width still contributes to confirming the presence of mineralization at Target AF.

- Positive factor: Moderate width intercept, contributing to the understanding of mineralization continuity at Target AF.

- Negative factor: Grade is in the 'weak' range for open-pit orogenic gold.

- Negative factor: True width is estimated, not explicitly stated for this intercept.

Reasoning: This narrow 2m intercept at 1.3 g/t Au is a moderate result, falling into the 'moderate' grade range for open-pit orogenic gold, and highlights higher-grade zones within the broader intercept in KR26-030.

- Positive factor: Moderate grade narrow intercept, indicating the presence of mineralization.

- Negative factor: Very narrow width \(2m\) limits overall materiality.

- Negative factor: True width is estimated, not explicitly stated for this intercept.

## How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
