Currently three diamond drill rigs are active at Iska Iska, two surface rigs and one underground drill. Planned drilling for 2021 is 51,000m with the aim of outlining an initial inferred National Instrument (“NI”) 43-101 compliant mineral resource by Q1 2022. Additionally, a downhole induced polarization/resistivity (IP/Res) survey is in progress to further define drill targets and aid resource definition drilling. Preliminary metallurgical tests are also in progress. An updated NI 43-101 Technical Report is being prepared by independent consultant Micon International Ltd.

“We are extremely pleased with the progress and exploration effort at Iska Iska and are most grateful for the partnership and contributions to date by the title holder, Empresa Minera Villegas S.R.L.,” commented Thomas Larsen, CEO of Eloro. “Due to the positive results to date from our drill campaign, initial engineering studies to establish potential economic parameters for mineral resource definition will commence shortly, with a site visit having already been completed by a top Peruvian Engineering firm. More detailed metallurgical studies are also planned.”
