Mr. Kenneth Armstrong reports

NORTH ARROW ANNOUNCES MANAGEMENT CHANGES

North Arrow Minerals Inc. has made changes in the executive management of the company, effective May 1, 2025, with Eira Thomas appointed president and chief executive officer of the company, and current president and CEO Ken Armstrong transitioning to chair of the board of directors. Ms. Thomas has served as the non-executive chair of North Arrow since February, 2024. This change is intended to recognize Ms. Thomas's expanded, more direct role in managing the company's exploration activities in southern Africa, including the Kraaipan gold project in Botswana.

Mr. Armstrong commented: "This change in North Arrow's management structure will allow the company to take full advantage of Eira's existing relationships and operational experience in southern Africa, and Botswana in particular, as the company advances the Kraaipan gold project and pursues additional exploration opportunities in this area. I look forward to continuing to support Eira, North Arrow and our partner and operator of the Kraaipan project, Rockman Resources, as we pursue new gold discoveries in southern Botswana."

Ms. Thomas has more than 30 years of experience in the mining industry, particularly in the diamond, gold and energy spaces. She has held executive and board positions with several companies over that period, including Kaminak Gold Corp. and Lucara Diamond Corp. In addition, she served as a director of Suncor Energy for 17 years.

Ms. Thomas commented: "I am pleased to be taking on increased responsibilities as North Arrow works to expand its portfolio of gold projects focused on southern Africa, and Botswana in particular, following a change in the company's focus in 2024. Importantly, North Arrow will also continue to benefit from Ken Armstrong's history and experience with the company as he steps into the role of chairman of the board of directors. The board would like to acknowledge Ken's long and successful service to the company as president and CEO and looks forward to continuing to work with Ken as the new chair."

Rockman's highly experienced in-country team continues to capably implement ongoing exploration programs at the Kraaipan project with Remote Mapper high-resolution magnetic surveys and structural mapping surveys currently under way. Both surveys are expected to be completed in early April. As part of the mapping program, approximately 80 prospecting rock samples have been collected to date for the purpose of providing a geochemical profile of outcropping altered and unaltered iron formation and associated rock types. The geochemistry of these samples, including gold assays, will aid in the characterization of bedrock samples collected as part of a planned three-month RC drill sampling program scheduled to start in May. This drill program is intended to test priority targets located beneath Kalahari overburden cover. For additional details on planned exploration work at Kraaipan, please see the company's news release dated Feb. 27, 2025).

About the Kraaipan gold project, Botswana

The Kraaipan gold project comprises three mineral concessions covering the 60 kilometres strike extent of the Kraaipan greenstone belt (the KGB) 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 multimillion-ounce Kalgold mine in South Africa, approximately 40 km south of the project. Past exploration of the northern extent of the KGB has been challenged by the presence of Kalahari overburden, impacting approximately 80 per cent of the KGB within Botswana. The Kalahari overburden comprises unconsolidated sand as well as gravel, silcrete, calcrete and minor clay-rich horizons. While laterally extensive, this cover material is typically less than 20 metres over much of the project but can locally reach depths of up to 70 m. Limited past exploration of the KGB in Botswana has identified local gold mineralization in shallow drilling of exposed banded iron formation (BIF) targets. An area of focus for new exploration is to identify BIF-related gold mineralization beneath the sand cover. To do this, North Arrow is working with Rockman Resources Ltd.'s highly experienced Botswana-based exploration team, who are deploying cost-effective, proprietary exploration solutions including unmanned aerial vehicle geophysics, truck-mounted drilling and, potentially, deep machine learning technologies to rapidly advance the project.

North Arrow can earn a 60-per-cent interest in the project from Rockman by investing $5-million (U.S.) by June 30, 2027, including a firm commitment to invest $1-million (U.S.) by June 30, 2025. To date, the company has invested approximately $500,000 (U.S.).
