Eloro Resources Announces Completion of Acquisition of Simkar Gold Property Near Val-d'Or, Quebec


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - March 21, 2011) - Eloro Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:ELO)(FRANKFURT:P2Q) ("Eloro") is pleased to announce that it has completed the acquisition (the "Acquisition") of the Simkar Gold Property near Val-d'Or, Québec (the "Simkar Property") from Megastar Development Corp. ("Megastar") in exchange for 70,000,000 Eloro common shares (the "Eloro Common Shares") issued to Megastar. The acquisition of Megastar's Simkar Property in exchange for the Eloro Common Shares has been effected on a tax-deferred basis pursuant to section 85(1) of the Income Tax Act (Canada), subject to the usual filings with the Canada Revenue Agency.

Prior to the closing of the Acquisition, Eloro had an option to acquire an undivided 50% interest in the Simkar Property from Megastar. However, effective February 28, 2011, title to the Simkar Property was transferred from Megastar to Eloro and Eloro now owns a 100% interest in the Simkar Property. The Eloro Common Shares have been released from escrow and Megastar has distributed them to its shareholders pursuant to a Plan of Arrangement. The Eloro Common Shares that were delivered to Megastar shareholders carried a hold period legend which expired on March 19, 2011.

As previously announced in a press release dated February 9, 2011, Eloro has commenced a two-phase, 10,000 m surface diamond-drilling program at the Simkar Property, a former producing mine located 20 km east of Val-d'Or Quebec. The Simkar Property consists of two contiguous mining concessions (2.26km²) within the prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt and hosts a thick sequence of east-west trending, near vertical dipping volcanic flows and pyroclastics of the Malartic Group. The higher gold grade, intrusion-centered gold-quartz-tourmaline vein system is geologically similar to the 9 million ounce Sigma-Lamaque Gold Deposit in Val-d'Or and many other gold deposits in the Abitibi Belt.
