Eloro Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: ELO; OTCQX: ELRRF; FSE:
P2QM) (“Eloro”, or the “Company”) is pleased to announce
assay results from eight (8) additional diamond drill holes from
its definition drilling program at the Iska Iska silver-tin
polymetallic project in the Potosi Department, southern Bolivia.
Hole DHK-27 was drilled from Huayra Kasa due west at -45 degrees to
a length of 860m to fill-in gaps in previous drilling of the
High-Grade Zone. Five (5) additional holes (DHK-26. DHK-28, DHK-29,
DHK-30 and DSB-42) were drilled to the southwest from the Huayra
Kasa area to test the eastern margin of the Santa Barbara deposit.
Hole DSB-43 was drilled on southwest side of Santa Barbara and hole
DSB-46 tested the potential south-southeastern extension.
As previously reported in a press release dated
November 27, 2022, the Company completed 84,495m
of drilling in 122 holes to complete the
definition drill program in the Santa Barbara target area, as shown
in Figure 1. Tables 1 and 2 list significant assay results for the
reported drill holes. Prices used for calculating Ag equivalent
grades are as outlined in Eloro’s July 21, 2022 press release.
Table 3 summarizes drill holes completed but with assays pending.
The remaining eight (8) holes outstanding are in the
south-southeastern extension area of the southern part of the Iska
Iska caldera.
In addition to the new drill results, the
Company is pleased to report on channel sampling results from the
Mina 1 and Mina 2 underground workings located approximately 2km
south-southeast of the Santa Barbara adit and approximately 800m
east of the Porco adit where previously reported channel sampling
returned a 103m strike length grading 521
g Ag eq/t (g 117g Ag/t, 1.44 g Au/t, 0.54% Cu and 0.66%
Sn) in altered basement sediments (see Eloro’s November
17, 2021 press release). The location of Mina 1 and Mina 2 is shown
in Figure 1. Complete channel sampling results are listed in Tables
4 and 5.
Tom Larsen, CEO of Eloro, said: “Hole DHK-27
when determining grade times intercept of 65,887 g Ag eq/t-m is the
2nd most valuable drill hole recorded to date and only just behind
the 441-meter 66,389 g Ag eq/t-m intersection in hole DSB-30
reported last fall (see press release September 20, 2022). These
are remarkable intercepts and grades. The significance of DHK-27 is
the consistent high silver grades averaging 69.80 g Ag/t over a
length of 325.48 meters which is close to true thickness. The
higher grade 182.02 g Ag/t over 109.60 m portion of Hole DHK-27
attests to the potential of outlining much higher-grade areas in
the Santa Barbara deposit with further drilling. It is also
important to note that calculations for equivalent Ag grade in this
release are based on July 2022 metal prices which for the major
metals at Iska Iska are 13% to 33% lower than current prices hence
the quoted values for silver equivalent are
conservative.”
“The technical team under the supervision of Dr.
Bill Pearson, P.Geo. and Dr. Osvaldo Arce, P.Geo. are setting up
for resumption of diamond drilling in early February that will
target the major tin porphyry that they believe is below the Iska
Iska porphyry and extends into the newly acquired Mina Casiterita
property,” continued Mr. Larsen. “Eloro has a remarkable
opportunity to outline a second, potential world class tin deposit
at Iska Iska in addition to the already extensive Santa Barbara
silver-tin polymetallic deposit which is the focus of our inaugural
mineral resource estimate expected by the end of Q1 2023. Expect to
see a lot of activity in and around Iska Iska in 2023!”
Dr. Bill Pearson, P.Geo. Eloro’s Executive Vice
President, Exploration commented: “We are working closely with
Micon International to ensure that they have all the data necessary
to complete the inaugural mineral resource estimate on the Santa
Barbara deposit targeted for the end of Q1 2023. Blue Coast
Research in Parksville, B.C. is completing their metallurgical
studies and Gemin Associates in Lima, Peru is preparing preliminary
economic parameters for the mineral resource estimation. On the
ground, the Company has commenced induced polarization surveys on
the Mina Casiterita property and is preparing for the restart of
drilling in early February. The next phase of exploration drilling
will target the potential tin porphyry in the Porco and Mina
Casiterita areas. In addition, we have also initiated a program of
geological mapping, sampling, and prospecting to evaluate the newly
staked properties in the Iska Iska area which are detailed in our
November 22, 2022 press release.”
Updated Geological Model for Iska Iska
and its Santa Barbara Deposit
Drilling across the valley of the Iska Iska
Caldera indicates that this area is underlain by a coarse-grained
porphyritic dacitic intrusion that is well mineralized with Ag, Zn
and Pb and is the likely source of the extensive epithermal
mineralization in the Santa Barbara and Central Breccia areas. The
porphyry, now named the Iska Iska Porphyry, is
approximately 800m by 600m (Figure 1) and is notable for the
absence of tin mineralization despite the abundance of tin in the
nearby area. The tin at Iska Iska has been long recognized by Dr.
Osvaldo Arce, P.Geo., an expert on Bolivian geology, as likely
being the product of an earlier higher temperature and deeper tin
porphyry, which has been overprinted by the later higher-level
porphyry-epithermal Ag-Zn-Pb mineralization related to the Iska
Iska porphyry.
Detailed analysis and modeling of the
geological, geophysical, and geochemical data at Iska Iska
indicates that the hydrothermal signature for the Iska Iska
porphyry-epithermal system is approximately 2.8km along
strike, up to 1.2km across strike and extending to a
depth of at least 1.4km (Figure 1).
The High-Grade Zone that occurs
within this extensive hydrothermal system defined by the
>90 g Ag eq/t grade shell model is
approximately 1,000m along strike, 800m wide and extends to
a depth of 1,100m (Figure 2). This zone is open to
the south, west and northwest as well as at depth.
Magnetic inverse modelling and limited deep drilling suggest that
the major tin porphyry is likely below the Iska Iska Porphyry and
to the south and southwest in the Porco and Mina Casiterita
areas.
The definition drilling program has more
than doubled the potential volume of high grade
mineralized material to be assessed for the mineral resource.
Figure 2 shows the >90 g Ag eq/t grade shell model released
September 20, 2022, compared to the date of this release. The
success of the definition drilling in expanding the >90 g Ag
eq/t zone is readily evident in Table 6, below and in Figure 2.

The overall mineralized zone as defined by the
>30 g Ag eq/t grade shell has a strike length of 2,200m, a width
of 1,200m and extends to a depth of at least 1,400m. Note that much
of the drilling at Santa Barbara is at 100m spacing hence further
drilling will likely provide better definition of higher-grade
zones within the extensive mineralized envelope.

Channel Sampling Mina 1 and Mina 2
Channel sampling of the Mina1 and Mina2
underground workings in the southern part of the property,
approximately 2km south-southeast of the Santa Barbara adit,
returned significant values from vein breccias as follows:
- 153.94g
Ag eq/t (55.03g Ag/t, 0.11 g Au/t, 0.70% Zn, 0.16% Pb and 0.08% Sn)
over 145.95m of the northwest trending drift, including a
higher-grade portion of 285.16g Ag eq/t (120.18g Ag/t, 0.25
g Au/t 1.23% Zn, 0.30% Pb and 0.13% Sn) over 56.34m in Mina
1.
- 382.79g
Ag eq/t (15.67g Ag/t, 1.70 g Au/t, 2.20% Zn and 0.75% Pb) over
68.53m in an east-west trending crosscut in Mina 2. A
second shorter crosscut on a secondary subparallel structure
approximately 20m to the south returned 475.78g Ag eq/t
(69.31g Ag/t, 0.26 g Au/t, 5.62% Zn and 1.92% Pb) over 26.67m in
Mina 2.
Figure 3 is a plan map showing sampling results
at Mina 1 and Mina 2. Table 6 gives details of the sampling
results.
These results, along with the previously
reported channel sample results from Porco noted above, clearly
indicate that the Iska Iska mineralizing system extends
much further south outside of the principal Iska Iska
Caldera. Based on field work by the Eloro geological team,
it appears that there may be a second, larger ringer structure with
a diameter of approximately 4.6km outside the main
Iska Iska caldera that could be another major focus of
mineralization. This possibility is currently being explored by
geological mapping and geophysical surveys to outline targets for
drill-testing in conjunction with work in the Porco area and the
nearby Mina Casiterita property.

Note: True width of the mineralization is not
known at the present time, but based on the current understanding
of the relationship between drill orientation/inclination and the
mineralization within the breccia pipes and the host rocks such as
sandstones and dacites, it is estimated that true width ranges
between 70% and 90% of the down hole interval length but this will
be confirmed by further drilling and geological modelling.
Chemical symbols: Ag = silver, Au = gold, Zn =
zinc, Pb = lead, Cu = copper, Sn = tin, Bi = bismuth, Cd = cadmium
and g Ag eq/t = grams silver equivalent per tonne. Quantities are
given in percent (%) for Zn, Pb Cu, Sn, Bi and Cd and in grams per
tonne (g/t) for Ag, Au and Ag eq.
Metal prices and conversion factors used for
calculation of g Ag eq/t (grams Ag per grams x metal ratio) are as
follows (Prices updated as of July 21, 2022, to more accurately
reflect current metal prices):

In calculating the intersections reported in
this press release a sample cutoff of 30 g Ag eq/t was used with
generally a maximum dilution of 3 continuous samples below cutoff
included within a mineralized section unless more dilution is
justified geologically.
The equivalent grade calculations are based on
the stated metal prices and are provided for comparative purposes
only, due to the polymetallic nature of the deposit. Metallurgical
tests are in progress by Blue Coast Ltd. to establish levels of
recovery for each element reported but currently the potential
recovery for each element has not yet been established. While there
is no assurance that all or any of the reported concentrations of
metals will be recoverable, Bolivia has a long history of
successfully mining and processing similar polymetallic deposits
which is well documented in the landmark volume “Yacimientos
Metaliferos de Bolivia” by Dr. Osvaldo R. Arce Burgoa, P.Geo.

Qualified Person
Dr. Osvaldo Arce, P.Geo., General Manager of
Eloro’s Bolivian subsidiary, Minera Tupiza S.R.L., and a Qualified
Person in the context of NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the
technical content of this news release. Dr. Bill Pearson, P.Geo.,
Executive Vice President Exploration Eloro, and who has more than
45 years of worldwide mining exploration experience, including
extensive work in South America, manages the overall technical
program, working closely with Dr. Osvaldo Arce, P.Geo. Dr. Quinton
Hennigh, P.Geo., Senior Technical Advisor to Eloro and Independent
Technical Advisor, Mr. Charley Murahwi P.Geo., FAusIMM of Micon are
regularly consulted on technical aspects of the project.
Eloro is utilizing both ALS and AHK for drill
core analysis, both of whom are major international accredited
laboratories. Drill samples sent to ALS are prepared in both
ALS Bolivia Ltda’s preparation facility in Oruro, Bolivia and
the preparation facility operated by AHK in Tupiza with pulps sent
to the main ALS Global laboratory in Lima for analysis. More
recently Eloro has had ALS send pulps to their laboratory at Galway
in Ireland. Eloro employs an industry standard QA/QC program with
standards, blanks and duplicates inserted into each batch of
samples analyzed with selected check samples sent to a separate
accredited laboratory.
Drill core samples sent to AHK Laboratories are
prepared in a preparation facility installed and managed by AHK in
Tupiza with pulps sent to the AHK laboratory in Lima, Peru. Au and
Sn analysis on these samples is done by ALS Bolivia Ltda in Lima.
Check samples between ALS and AHK are regularly done as a QA/QC
check. AHK is following the same analytical protocols used as with
ALS and with the same QA/QC protocols. Turnaround time continues to
improve, as laboratories return to more normal staffing levels.
About Iska Iska
Iska Iska silver-tin polymetallic project is a
road accessible, royalty-free property, wholly controlled by the
Title Holder, Empresa Minera Villegas S.R.L. and is located 48 km
north of Tupiza city, in the Sud Chichas Province of the Department
of Potosi in southern Bolivia. Eloro has an option to earn a 100%
interest in Iska Iska.
Iska Iska is a major silver-tin polymetallic
porphyry-epithermal complex associated with a Miocene possibly
collapsed/resurgent caldera, emplaced on Ordovician age rocks with
major breccia pipes, dacitic domes and hydrothermal breccias. The
caldera is 1.6km by 1.8km in dimension with a vertical extent of at
least 1km. Mineralization age is similar to Cerro Rico de Potosí
and other major deposits such as San Vicente, Chorolque, Tasna and
Tatasi located in the same geological trend.
Eloro began underground diamond drilling from
the Huayra Kasa underground workings at Iska Iska on September 13,
2020. On November 18, 2020, Eloro announced the discovery of a
significant breccia pipe with extensive silver polymetallic
mineralization just east of the Huayra Kasa underground workings
and a high-grade gold-bismuth zone in the underground workings. On
November 24, 2020, Eloro announced the discovery of the SBBP
approximately 150m southwest of the Huayra Kasa underground
workings.
Subsequently, on January 26, 2021, Eloro
announced significant results from the first drilling at the SBBP
including the discovery hole DHK-15 which returned 129.60 g Ag eq/t
over 257.5m (29.53g Ag/t, 0.078 g Au/t, 1.45%Zn, 0.59%Pb, 0.080%Cu,
0.056%Sn, 0.0022%In and 0.0064% Bi from 0.0m to 257.5m). Subsequent
drilling has confirmed significant values of Ag-Sn polymetallic
mineralization in the SBBP and the adjacent CBP. A substantive
mineralized envelope which is open along strike and down-dip
extends around both major breccia pipes. Continuous channel
sampling of the Santa Barbara Adit located to the east of SBBP
returned 442 g Ag eq/t (164.96 g Ag/t, 0.46%Sn, 3.46% Pb and 0.14%
Cu) over 166m including 1,092 g Ag eq/t (446 g Ag/t, 9.03% Pb and
1.16% Sn) over 56.19m. The west end of the adit intersects the end
of the SBBP.
Since the initial discovery hole, Eloro has
released a number of significant drill results in the SBBP and the
surrounding mineralized envelope which along with geophysical data
has defined an extensive target zone. In its September 20, 2022
press release, the Company reported that new downhole geophysical
data has significantly extended the strike length of the high-grade
feeder zone at Santa Barbara a further 250m along strike to the
south-southeast from existing drilling. The 3D inverse magnetic
model which correlates very strongly with the conductive zone
suggested that the high-grade feeder zone may extend across the
entire caldera for as much as a further 1 km along strike for a
total potential strike length of at least 2 km. As reported, the
definition drill program was modified to sectionally drill this
potential extension with the intention of defining a major open
pittable deposit in the valley of the caldera. As a result, the
estimated completion date for the maiden National Instrument 43-101
mineral resource was pushed back to the end of Q1 2023.
The Company completed 84,495m of drilling in 122
holes from the definition drill program in the Santa Barbara target
area, as previously announced on November 27, 2022.
On November 22, 2022, Eloro announced the
acquisition of the Mina Casiterita and Mina Hoyada properties
covering 14.75 km2 southwest and west of Iska Iska. These
properties connect with the TUP-3 and TUP-6 claims previously
staked by Eloro. Eloro has also staked additional land in the area.
Following the acquisition, the total land package in the Iska Iska
area to be controlled by Eloro will total 1,935 quadrants covering
483.75 km2.
Artisanal mining in the 1960’s identified high
grade tin (Sn) veins on the Mina Casiterita property that are
hosted in an intrusive dacite. Production from 1962 to 1964 is
reported by the Departamento Nacional de Geología in Bolivia to be
69.85 tonnes grading 50.60% Sn.
Recently completed magnetic surveys by Eloro has
outlined an extensive, near surface, magnetic intrusive body on the
Mina Casiterita property immediately southwest of Iska Iska. This
intrusive hosts the previously mined high-grade tin veins and is
very likely the continuation of the porphyry tin intrusion
projected to be below the epithermal Ag-Sn-Zn-Pb mineralization at
Iska Iska.
The Porco adit from which previously reported
channel sampling returned 103m grading 521 g Ag eq/t (including g
117g Ag/t, 1.44 g Au/t, 0.54% Cu and 0.66% Sn) in altered basement
sediments, is located near the northeast part of the magnetic
anomaly, attesting to the potential strength and high-grade nature
of the mineralized system in the area.
Drilling is planned in the Porco area and on
Mina Casiterita commencing in early February 2023 with geological
mapping, sampling and geophysical surveys now in progress on the
full land package across the Iska Iska region.
