VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 10,
2023 /CNW/ - North Arrow Minerals
Inc. (TSXV: NAR) ("North Arrow") is pleased to
report it has confirmed at least four spodumene pegmatites at the
company's 100% owned
LDG Property, Northwest
Territories.
Four spodumene-bearing pegmatites
identified within 5 km of the winter road connecting the Diavik
mine with Yellowknife
Highlights of this recently completed program, initially
announced in North Arrow news release dated July 13, 2023, include:
- Four spodumene-bearing pegmatites have been identified within 5
km of the winter road connecting the Diavik diamond mine, 20 km to
the north, with the city of Yellowknife, and within 1 km of an alternative
winter road alignment used in the past.
- The pegmatites remain open along strike and have been traced
over estimated extents of 300m to
>500m, based on interpreted
continuity of low-relief outcrop exposures. Individual outcrops
range from metre-scale to near continuous exposures over
200m in strike length.
- The pegmatites are interpreted to dip steeply at ~75-80 degrees
with estimated widths ranging from 5m
to 50m. Widths are poorly constrained
by abundant overburden and rarely observed contacts with
metasedimentary host rocks.
- Pegmatite mineralogy consists of plagioclase, potassium
feldspar, quartz, spodumene, muscovite and tourmaline. Spodumene is
abundant in the pegmatites, locally reaching 15-20% of observed
outcrops, in some cases with very coarse crystals up to 50 cm in
size.
- 51 channel and regional prospecting samples have been submitted
to ALS Global in Yellowknife with
results to be reported when received.
- Abundant overburden in the area provides significant scope for
expanding these showings considerably.

Ken Armstrong, President and CEO
of North Arrow commented "In a very short period of time, North
Arrow has confirmed a new spodumene pegmatite field within our
100% owned LDG Project in the Northwest
Territories. Based on the size potential of these
pegmatites, their location immediately adjacent to transportation
infrastructure provided by the Lac de Gras winter road, and the
fact that an exploration camp and drilling permit are already in
place, we have refocused our 2023 drilling plans to test these
discoveries starting in late August. The program is intended to
rapidly evaluate the pegmatites through approximately 2,000m of delineation drilling and sampling,
which will provide clarity of their full size and mineralization
potential."
Drilling of North Arrow's 100% owned DeStaffany Lithium Project,
updated in a North Arrow news release dated July 11, 2023, will occur in 2024.
