Mining company Eloro Resources Ltd. (ELO:TSX; ELRRF:OTCQX; P2QM:FSE) recently released drill results from its Iska Iska project, which could result in a material resource upgrade, heading into a PEA, according to a Haywood Capital Markets research note.

On September 17, 2025, Haywood Securities analysts Pierre Vaillancourt and Owen McCleery, CFA, maintained a Buy rating on Eloro Resources Ltd. (ELO:TSX; ELRRF:OTCQX; P2QM:FSE), with a target price of CA$3.00, representing 161% upside from the current share price at the time of the report of CA$1.15.

The rating follows drill results from the company's Iska Iska project in Bolivia that the analysts believe "will lead to a material resource upgrade, heading into a PEA."

Drill Program Results and Mineralization

Eloro Resources Ltd. reported results from five drill holes from its second phase definition diamond drill program at the Santa Barbara starter pit area at the Iska Iska project in Bolivia. Four of these holes are in the polymetallic domain, and one is in the tin domain. To date, a total of 6,242 meters of diamond drilling in 12 holes has been completed in the current definition drilling phase, with a total of 2,346 meters completed in the five holes reported. Assays remain pending for the remaining two holes, totaling 1,025 meters.

The analysts noted: "These drill results are encouraging, particularly the vein-breccia and intrusion-breccia, which are typical of high-grade porphyry-tin and polymetallic deposits of the Bolivian Tin Belt district."

Drill highlights include hole DSB-87, an infill hole drilled 150 meters southeast of discovery hole DSB-72, which intersected 213 meters grading 0.51% tin and 25.5 grams per tonne silver within a broader interval of 241.5 meters grading 0.47% tin and 23.17 grams per tonne silver, beginning at 26 meters, and including 1.18% tin over 34.5 meters beginning at 62 meters.

Hole DSB-80, a step-out hole 75 meters southwest of hole DSB-76, intersected several higher-grade silver, tin, gold, and zinc intervals, including 53.1 grams per tonne silver over 15 meters beginning at 341 meters, 30 grams per tonne silver over 9 meters beginning at 446 meters, and 34.5 grams per tonne silver over 10.5 meters beginning at 461 meters. The remaining drill holes intersected strong silver grades ranging from 30 grams per tonne to 198 grams per tonne, along with tin values in excess of 0.2%.

System Expansion and Scale

These results have expanded the footprint of a large multi-phase hydrothermal system in the potential starter pit with dimensions increased by 100 meters along and across strike, for a size of approximately 800 meters by 500 meters by 500 meters deep.

Resource and Development Timeline

Following the conclusion of this drill program, Eloro plans to provide an updated resource by the end of October and the end of December, which would lead to a preliminary economic assessment by the end of the first quarter of 2026. Based on results from drilling and the defined mineralized envelope, the analysts anticipate a resource in the range of 180-200 million tonnes, with tin ore comprising 20-25% of the resource.

The analysts expect resource grades of 35 grams per tonne silver, 1-1.5% zinc and 0.8% lead, along with 0.25% tin, with potential for higher grade zones. This resource would form the basis of a preliminary economic assessment targeted for release by the end of the first quarter of 2026.

The analysts stated: "This resource would form the basis of a PEA targeted for release by the end of 1Q26 that we believe could consider a polymetallic mine with mill throughput of 25k tpd producing zinc-silver and lead-silver concentrates, complemented by a tin circuit of 10k tpd producing a tin concentrate, over an approximate 15-year mine life, which would likely be extended."

The analysts expect the capital cost of this mine to be in the range of CA$400-500 million. The preliminary economic assessment would lead to a prefeasibility study that the analysts estimate could be completed by early 2027.

Analyst Commentary and Investment Rationale

Vaillancourt and McCleery stated: "The current closer-spaced definition drill program has upgraded and expanded the Iska Iska mineralization with significant higher-grade tin, silver, and polymetallic zones, which are still open laterally and at depth in the potential starter pit area at Santa Barbara zone."

The analysts believe the upcoming resource update, to be followed by a preliminary economic assessment, will maintain momentum for the stock, which is up 32% year-to-date.

Valuation Methodology

The target price of CA$3.00 is based on a 1.2 times price-to-net asset value at 8% discount rate multiple. Eloro is trading at a price-to-net asset value of 0.62 times versus peers at 0.48 times.
