The Kraaipan Project comprises a large land package covering 1,266 km\n \n 2\n \n of mostly underexplored, Archean greenstone terrain, referred to as the Kraaipan Greenstone Belt (\"KGB\").  The KGB straddles the\n \n Botswana\n \n –\n \n South Africa\n \n border and is prospective for the discovery of both gold and base metal deposits, however, in\n \n Botswana\n \n , it has undergone limited historical exploration owing to a generally thin (<\n \n 40m\n \n ) cover of Kalahari sand that hinders the collection of traditional exploration data using geological mapping, prospecting and geochemical sampling. The South African portion of the KGB is better exposed and explored and is host to numerous mineral occurrences including\n \n Harmony Gold's\n \n multi-million-ounce Kalgold mine, in operation since the late 1990's and located approximately 40km south of the Kraaipan Project.\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Ken Armstrong\n \n , President and CEO of North Arrow, stated, \"North Arrow is pleased to have started work evaluating the gold potential of the Kraaipan Project, in collaboration with our partner, Rockman Resources. Our initial focus is to systematically explore beneath Kalahari sand cover for orogenic gold mineralization associated with banded iron formation (BIF) units of the Kraaipan Greenstone Belt. We believe the KGB within the Kraaipan project area is an excellent regional scale exploration opportunity because, while typically less than\n \n 40m\n \n thick, the Kalahari sands have presented an obstacle to past exploration efforts.
