Eloro (ELO) has released assay results from two drill holes from its Iska Iska Project in Bolivia. 

The company has completed 79,258 metres in 118 drill holes to date at the project, including four holes in progress.

One drill hole, DSB-36, collared 400 metres southeast of the Santa Barbara adit, tested the extension of the core of the high-grade feeder zone at Santa Barbara. This hole saw many significant intersections, such as 108.16 g Ag eq/t (11.63 g Ag/t, 1.53 per cent Zn and 0.36 per cent Pb) over 111.26 metres from 326.22 to 437.48 metres, with higher-grade portions of the hole including:

  • 180.29 g Ag eq/t (24.27 g Ag/t, 2.49 per cent Zn and 0.73 per cent Pb) over 24.13 metres
  • 197.54 g Ag eq/t (17.04 g Ag/t, 2.96 per cent Zn and 0.58 per cent Pb) over 11.82 metres
  • 211.34 g Ag eq/t (30.50 g Ag/t, 2.87 per cent Zn and 0.76 per cent Pb) over 6.02 metres

Other significant intersections in this hole include:

  • 101.31 g Ag eq/t (28.14 g Ag/t, 0.19 per cent Zn, 0.55 per cent Pb and 0.26 per cent Cu) over 77.82 metres
  • 101.47 g Ag eq/t (23.88 g Ag/t, 1.08 per cent Zn and 0.56 per cent Pb) over 55.54 metres
  • 205.75 g Ag eq/t (20.69 g Ag/t, 0.15 g Au/t, 0.68 per cent Zn and 0.75 per cent Pb) over 22.75 metres
  • 136.82 g Ag eq/t (3.33 g Ag/t, 0.09 g Au/t, 1.72 per cent Zn, 0.31 per cent Pb and 0.07 per cent Sn) over 78.39 metres, including 478.26 g Ag eq/t (12.60 g Ag/t, 0.27 g Au/t, 5.61 per cent Zn, 0.91 per cent Pb and 0.28 per cent Sn) over 10.53 metres
  • 203.26 g Ag eq/t (1.73 g Ag/t, 0.75 per cent Zn and 0.42 per cent Sn) over 12.22 metres
  • The last sample in this 935.4-metre hole returned 549.91 g Ag eq/t (46 g Ag/t, 3.33 per cent Zn, 2.27 per cent Pb and 0.68 per cent Sn) over 1.51 metres
  • 52 per cent of this hole contained reportable intersections, which collectively averaged 112.48 g Ag eq/t

On-strike extension of the high-grade feeder zone at Santa Barbara to the south-southeast is now confirmed for an additional 400 metres and is open along strike.

Bill Pearson, Executive VP of Exploration, spoke with Sabrina Cuthbert about the results.

Eloro Resources is an exploration and mine development company with a portfolio of gold and base-metal properties in Bolivia, Peru and Quebec.

Eloro Resources (ELO) opened trading at $3.35 per share.
