NEWS RELEASE

PORTOFINO ANNOUNCES $500,000 FINANCING

Vancouver, B.C., November 02 , 2020. PORTOFINO RESOURCES INC. (POR: TSX -V) (POTA: FSE)

(“Portofino” or the “Company”) announces that it has arranged a private placement financing for

$500,000 priced at $0.10 per unit. Each Unit will consist of one common share and one share purchase

warrant. Each Warrant shall have a term of 24 months commencing on the Closing Date and shall entitle

the holder to purchase one common share at a price of $0.15 during the term. Closing will be subject to

TSXV Exchange approval and any shares issued will be subject to a four-month hold period.

Proceeds from the financing shall be used for exploration activities on its Northwestern Ontario precious

metal projects and general working capital. The focus of exploration will be on its South of Otter, Red Lake

and its Gold Creek properties.

The Company will not proceed, at this time, with the previously announced flow-through private

placement financing.

Portofino also announces that it has retained 1712060 Alberta Co. (“Alberta Co.”) to provide strategic

investor relations and financial communications services for a period of up to 12 months. The Company

will pay a monthly retainer fee of $17,000 for select strategic communications services. Neither Alberta

Co. nor any of its principals have an ownership interest, directly or indirectly, in Portofino or its securities,

and the Company has not granted Alberta Co. or its principals any right to acquire any such interests. The

agreement is subject to the approval of the TSXV Exchange.

Portofino’s Recent Activities

The Company has been highly active through the past months with exploration being undertaken at each

of its four gold properties in northwestern Ontario. At the Gold Creek claims in the Matawin gold belt

south of Shebandowan, our geological team has been following up on the targets delineated by our recent

airborne geophysical survey. Several occurrences were located, mapped and sampled with more than

160 samples shipped for analyses. Closer to the developing Atikokan gold camp, Portofino’s team has

completed preliminary exploration on its Sapawe West and Melema West projects, including prospecting,

geochemical rock, soil and lake sediment sampling and sampling of all noted mineral occurrences – some

of which may constitute new discovery showings. Currently, our geologists are working near Red Lake,

Ontario, on the South of Otter project where they are undertaking additional rock sampling and

conducting a soil sampling program on a targeted grid to assist in the next steps planning of a diamond

drill program.

David Tafel commented, “We look forward to receiving sample assay results from the lab and will report

results of our exploration work as they becomes available. We believe that our portfolio of p rospective

gold projects has excellent potential.”
