Eloro Intersects 234.19g Ag eq/t over 53.20m in the Mineralized Envelope of the Santa Barbara Breccia Pipe at Iska Iska Silver-Tin Polymetallic Project, Potosi Department, Bolivia
Step out drilling northwest of Santa Barbara Breccia Pipe demonstrates room for expansion of the mineralized strike length of the breccia pipe and its surrounding mineralized envelope to over 1.2km Definition drilling in progress to define a maiden NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource within a target block measuring 1,200m along strike, 500m wide and extending to a depth of up to 600m in Santa Barbara Breccia Pipe and its surrounding mineralized envelopeEloro Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: ELO; OTCQX: ELRRF FSE: P2QM) (“Eloro”, or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its Iska Iska silver-tin polymetallic project in the Potosi Department, southern Bolivia. To date, the Company has completed 58 diamond drill holes totalling 26,982 metres (m) to test major target areas at Iska Iska. This press release reports drilling results from four (4) additional holes which tested the mineralized envelope of the Santa Barbara Breccia Pipe (“SBBP”) (Holes DDHK-19 and DHK-20) and the central-southern part of the Central Breccia Pipe (“CBP”) (Holes DCN-04 and DCS-02). To date, every drill hole that has been assayed has returned multiple reportable mineralized intercepts. Currently three drill rigs are in operation at Iska Iska. Two surface drill rigs are completing drilling at SBBP in order to outline an initial National Instrument 43-101 (“NI-43-101”) compliant resource. A third drill, an underground rig, situated in the west end of the Santa Barbara Adit, is testing the eastern part of SBBP and its mineralized envelope. Figure 1 is a geological plan map showing locations of drill holes and an updated geological interpretation. This map depicts a recently identified robust magnetic anomaly to the northwest of the SBBP where drilling is in progress (see press release June 7, 2021, for an overview of the magnetic results). Figure 2 is a north-south section showing the major potential extension of the SBBP mineralized system. Table 1 provides significant drilling results with definitions of chemical symbols and Table 2 lists holes completed with assays pending as well as holes in progress in the three major target areas. Highlights are as follows:
