Portofino Files Drill Permit Application for Its Yergo Lithium Project-Catamarca, Argentina
(firmenpresse) - Vancouver, B.C., April 27, 2021. PORTOFINO RESOURCES INC. (TSX-V: POR) (OTCQB: PFFOF) (FSE: POTA) (Portofino or the Company) is pleased to report that it has filed an application with the Provincial Mining Ministry of Catamarca for a drill permit pursuant to implementing an inaugural drill program on the Aparejos Salar in its 100% controlled Yergo Lithium Project (Project) in Argentina.
A recently completed geophysical survey and surface geochemical sampling program was successfully completed at the Project (NR-April 6, 2021). The survey identified two large, anomalous sub-basins within the Aparejos Salar. The survey and sampling results confirm the presence of lithium-rich brines and the potential volume of the brines within the Project and has provided Portofinos geological team with the confidence to proceed to the drilling stage.
Phase 1 drill testing of the Project will enable initial evaluation of the volume and the lithium content of the brines and sediments within the identified zones. Definitive drill target locations are being finalized.
The Yergo Lithium Project
Portofino has the right to earn a 100% interest in the 2,932 hectares Yergo Project which encompasses the entire Aparejos Salar and is located in the southern part of Argentinas world-renowned Lithium Triangle. The Project is situated 15 kilometers southeast of Neo Lithium Corps advanced 3Q Project. Given the proximity of the 3Q Project, it is likely that the Aparejos Salar has a similar geological history, including lithium enrichment, due to their common evaporitic climate and local geology (i.e., located within the same volcanic package with exposure of the same potential lithium source rocks).
