Calgary, Alberta – TheNewswire -  April 15, 2021: San Lorenzo Gold Corp. ("San Lorenzo" or the "Company") (tsxv - slg) announces that it will commence exploration on its 100% owned Salvadora Copper – Gold Project (“Salvadora”) located in Chile.  The first phase of exploration will consist of an approximately 250 line kilometre magnetometer (“MAG”) survey that will cover most of the Project.  The Salvadora Project is 8,796 hectares and geologically it is situated in one of the productive copper belts in Chile and approximately 15 km from the world class El Salvador open pit copper-gold mine (see Figure 1).  MAG surveys have not been done at Salvadora before and will be used to outline structures and phases of intrusive activity.  The MAG survey will begin in the central zone (see Figure 2) where previous exploration has outlined favourable geology, alteration and copper mineralization consistent with copper – gold porphyry systems.  .
