discover and demonstrate commercially extractable gold and base metal deposits
in Scandinavia. The strategy is primarily to carry out exploration work and
either sell the project within a few years or to establish mining activities
under the company's own control or through a partnership with other companies.
Arctic Gold focuses mainly on the Bidjovagge project in northern Norway and
current gold and base metal permits in Västerbotten and Norrbotten. Arctic
Gold's shares are listed on NASDAQ OMX First North under the ticker ARCT.
