Eloro Resources Advances Iska Iska Project with Targeted Drilling Campaign
Eloro Resources is launching an 8-hole diamond drilling program at its Iska Iska silver-tin project in Bolivia, aimed at expanding and upgrading mineral resources. The strategic campaign could potentially support an updated preliminary economic assessment.
Eloro Resources Ltd. is preparing to commence a significant drilling initiative at its Iska Iska Silver-Tin Project in southwestern Bolivia. The upcoming 4,300-meter drilling program will consist of eight diamond drill holes targeting the Santa Barbara starter pit area, with strategic spacing of 50 meters to confirm mineralization continuity.
Company CEO Tom Larsen highlighted the importance of the campaign, noting that previous drilling efforts have already expanded the project's mineralization footprint and revealed promising new exploration targets. The 2025 phase 1 campaign aims to further assess the zone's resource potential and support an updated preliminary economic assessment (PEA).
The drilling program represents a critical step in understanding and potentially expanding the project's high-grade tin and silver mineralization. Ongoing metallurgical studies have shown encouraging preliminary results, suggesting significant potential for future resource development.
This targeted approach reflects Eloro Resources' commitment to systematically evaluating and developing the Iska Iska property, which has been classified as a polymetallic epithermal-porphyry complex. The strategic drilling campaign could provide crucial insights into the project's economic viability and mineral resource extent.
