After last week IPO debutants fell short of expectations, attention will shift to a host of resources names, with the largest coming courtesy of lithium explorer Winsome Resources (ASX: WR1), which is raising $18 million. Winsome, which draws upon hydro-power and has been spun out of ASX-listed MetalsTech (ASX: MTC), owns three project areas in Canada, with drilling at its Cancet hard-rock lithium project recording 3.7% lithium oxide from surface down about 17 meters.Elsewhere, short-term rental accommodation platform Alloggio (ASX:ALO) will be hoping to avert souring sentiment in the travel sector when it lists today, with the company largely targeting domestic travel across Australia.Coming in under the radar is resource collection, recycling and packaging firm Close the Loop (ASX: CLG), which has developed a safe and innovative battery collection and recycling solution in Australia. Having raised $12 million, it will debut with a market cap of $66 million, with more than $70 million revenue to its name last financial year.
