Yes, I have no sources for now, but I am sure most luso-brazilians are from Minho's region, what makes sense, since it used to be the poorest region in Portugal during colonial times. Also, alentejanos surnames are usually uncommon amongst brazilians.

About 77% of the colonials are Minhotians. Others 10% from Tras os Montes and Azores(mainly to Para, Maranhao and the South). Others parts of Brazil like Southeast and Northeast where the immigration was insanely huge came from Minho that was crounded and the most populous portuguese region. For what I know regions lilke Alentejo dont even send 1% of the immigrants, because it was actually sparselly populated and still being settled by the populous northern Portugal/Galicia.

Very good...
May be I can add:
Chile=North-east Iberia is perfect (basques) but they also recived southern (andalusians).
Costa Rica= Central Iberia (Castilla la Nueva and Extremadura) and North/North-west (Galicia/Asturias) and some northeast (Catalonia).

To Basques, also I think about Colombia, many whites and off whites of Medellin and Bogota have basques or other northeast iberian surnames.

Exactly!

For Mexico the majority came from Andalusia indeed, but with notable numbers of Basques and Extremadurans

[Catarinense1998]

Portugal's North region. In the South, it was mainly azoreans.

Inthe gold rush:

"A maior parte da imigração foi de pessoas originárias do Minho. De início, a Coroa Portuguesa incentivou a ida de minhotos pobres para o Brasil, onde se fixaram principalmente na região de Minas Gerais e na Região Centro-Oeste do Brasil, onde foram encontradas minas de ouro. Porém, a imigração tomou proporções altíssimas, e a Coroa passou a controlar a ida de portugueses para o Brasil. "Viu-se em breve tempo transplantado meio Portugal a este empório", nas palavras de Simão Ferreira Machado em Triunfo Eucarístico, livro publicado em Lisboa em 1734"...

"Os descendentes desses açorianos e madeirenses radicados na Ilha de Santa Catarina permaneceram por quase dois séculos de certa forma isolados do que acontecia no resto do Brasil, vivendo basicamente da agricultura de subsistência. Só a partir da década de 1970 que estradas foram abertas e asfaltadas, interligando essas vilas, que atualmente é uma região turística"...

"O impacto da imigração açoriana para o Sul do Brasil foi tão forte que em 1780 os açorianos respondiam por 55% de toda a população da capitania do Rio Grande do Sul.[46] A fecundidade dos casais açorianos era enorme. Raro era o casal que não contava mais de seis filhos. Alguns, como a de um Lopes, atingiram a fabulosa cifra de vinte e um filhos; o de um Manuel Jacintho, a de trinta filhos, sendo quinze de cada uma das mulheres com quem foi casado"...
