Major New Gold Zone Identified at Rufina
4000 meter Drill Program to commence immediately
Toronto, Canada, June 6, 2018 – Eloro Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: ELO; FSE: P2Q) (“Eloro” or the
“Corporation”) and its joint venture partner EHR Resources Limited, are pleased to announce that they
are proceeding with a 4,000m diamond drilling program to test the Rufina and San Markito target areas on
the La Victoria Au Property in the North-Central Mineral Belt of Peru. The drill permit for Rufina has been
issued and Energold Drilling Peru S .A.C.SA has been recommissioned to undertake this work program
commencing immediately.
Previous drilling by Eloro at Rufina returned a number of encouraging gold intersections with best results
of 3.46 g Au/t over 7.4m including 7.31 g Au/t over 3.4m and 2.73 g Au/t over 1.5m in Hole ERU -02 and
2.10 g Au/t over 4.5m including 4.31 g Au/t over 1.6m and 2.73 g Au/t over 1.5m in Hole ERU -04 (see
Eloro’s January 16, 2018 press release).
A new silicified zone identified in deep hole ERU-06, which tested the potential depth extent of the Rufina
veins system, has revealed a core silicified zone at the end of the hole. Results of ERU-06 are shown in
Table 1. Additional f ollow-up geological surface mapping and sampling to the northeast of the recent
drilling has identified a major new gold zone, Rufina Eastern, which is potentially the core of the epithermal
gold system at Rufina (Figures 1 and 2). To date 117 channel samples have been taken over mineralized
quartz veins in this target areaof 250m by 150mas shown in Figure 1. Nearly three quarters of the samples
have returned significant gold values (Table 2) over widths ranging from 0.05m to 1.60m with highlights as
follows:
10 samples with >10 g Au/t over widths of 0.05m to 0.80m including 27.24 g Au/t over 0.80m,
29.02 g Au/t over 0.25m and 38.55 g Au/t over 0.15m
27 samples with >3-10 g Au/t over widths of 0.10-0.60m
47 samples with >1-3 g Au/t over widths of 0.10m to 1.60m
An initial 5-hole diamond drill program totalling 2,000m will now be undertaken within this new zone at
Rufina as shown in Figure 1. The final drill permit for Rufina was issued on June 6, 2018. A drill contract
has been signed with Energold Drilling Peru S.A.C .and a drill is being mobilized to site. All preparatory
work for drilling including construction of access roads and drill platforms has been completed.
The San Markito target, which is located 2.7km north of Rufina , was previously mapped and sampled by
Eloro in 2016 (see press release of December 14, 2016) and will be initially drill tested through a program
of 6 diamond drill holes totalling 2 ,000m. Permitting for San Markito is in progress. The drilling will be
undertaken over the extensive gold -silver mineralization within intrusive diorite and Chimu Formation
sandstones. Mineralization in the areais very extensive occurring over a width of 500+m and a strike length
of at least 2.5km. Further geological mappin g and sampling over the entire target zone is also planned
within the next few months.
Tom Larsen, CEO of Eloro commented: “We are continuing to advance our geological knowledge at La
Victoria which has resulted in outlining a significant new target area at Rufina that will be drilled in this next
phase program. Drilling will commence immediately, initially at Rufina , and then subsequently at San
Markito.”

Dr. Bill Pearson, P.Geo., Chief Technical Advisor for Eloro commented: “Epithermal gold mineralization at
La Victoria extends from elevation 2700m at the end of deep hole ERU -06 up to 4200m elevation at San
Markito, a remarkable 1.5km vertical extent (Figure 3). It is likely that there are multiple telescoping
epithermal gold systems. We are focussing our efforts on finding the sweet spots in these systems where
there is an opportunity to discover a significant gold deposit.We have multiple drill targets to follow-up and
expect to add more as field work progresses.”
