Overview

Portofino Resources Inc. (TSXV:POR,FWB:POTA) is a Canadian mineral resource company with lithium and gold projects in the Americas. The company’s focus is on its three lithium brine projects located within Argentina’s Catamarca Province, which is one of the leading lithium production centers in South America’s Lithium Triangle. The region’s salars have become the world’s main source for lithium carbonate production. Additionally, Portofino’s three lithium projects are all located near key producers and advancing projects, such as FMC Lithium, Galaxy Resources (ASX:GXY) and LSC Lithium Corp. (TSXV:LSC), to name a few.

Recent exploration work at the company’s Hombre Muerto West and Rio Grande Sur properties has yielded promising results. At Hombre Muerto West, a surface sampling program tested 18 areas of interest and returned 1,031mg/L lithium, Portofino’s highest-grade brine assays to date. At Rio Grande Sur, 13 samples from the property were tested and returned values of up to 216mg/L and 4,185 mg/L potassium. Additionally, lithium has been found in spring-sourced surface waters, which indicate that the area may be a key source of lithium for the salar.
