Uncovering the Gold Potential of Botswana's Kraaipan Greenstone Belt

Exploring for hidden deposits within a sand-covered Archean Greenstone Belt in Botswana

North Arrow has teamed up with Botswana's Rockman Resources Ltd. to explore a 60 km segment of the Kraaipan Greenstone Belt ("KGB"). While gold is being produced in South Africa from the same geology, the Botswana portion of the belt has remained largely underexplored due to limited exposure, with over 80% of the belt covered by Kalahari overburden. Thanks to technological advancements, North Arrow is leveraging proprietary tools from its partner to quickly evaluate the potential for orogenic gold in Botswana's KGB.

Botswana: an Excellent Place to Explore for Natural Resources

• Strong Political Stability and Good Governance
• Ethical Mining Practices
• Well-Established Infrastructure
• Favorable Regulatory Climate
• Rich Mineral Resources
• Government Partnerships with Mining Companies

Archean Greenstone Belts and their gold potential

• Deformed rocks from ancient ocean basins and continental margins
• Metamorphism at depth creates mineral-rich hydrothermal fluids
• Brittle deformation creates fractures and pathways for fluid transport
• Deposition of mineral deposits from fluids can occur when rising fluids experience a change of conditions.

Many world-renowned gold mining districts are found within greenstone belts (e.g. the Abitibi in Canada)
