(TSXV: RG) (OTC Pink: RMIOF) (FSE: D4R) (\"Romios\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that the analysis of the data from the February airborne magnetic and VTEMTM Terrain Time Domain electromagnetic survey over portions of its Newmont Lake property in the \"Golden Triangle\" of British Columbia has identified a number of new geophysical targets. The survey covered approximately 97 square kilometres at a line spacing of 125 m over three survey blocks referred to as the Northwest Zone, Ken Zone and the Dirk claims. These claims host a variety of copper-gold-silver targets including skarns, mantos and porphyry-style occurrences (for further details on the various mineralized targets see Romios' news release dated January 31, 2018). The airborne survey outlined four large, oval-shaped anomalous areas of low resistivity, three on the Northwest-Ken block and one on the Dirk block. The Northwest-Ken anomalies are 1.0 to 1.5 km wide x 1.6 to 1.8 km long, and the Dirk anomaly is 0.5 km x 1.5 km but forms part of a previously defined anomaly >4 km long. Three of the four resistivity anomalies appear with some certainty to be bedrock responses and the 4th, located in the vicinity of Newmont Lake, appears to be a surficial response but may also have an underlying bedrock signature.Historic Cu-Zn showings are reported within one of the features and Cu-Ag in another. Electromagnetic conductors were identified from the survey data by Romios' consulting geophysicist, Mr. Bob Lo, P. Eng. Three clusters of EM responses are of particular interest, one extending out from a known skarn occurrence on the Ken Claims, and two on the Northwest Block. Of these latter two anomalies, one extends north from a known Cu-Au showing and one is in an underexplored area along strike to the south of the Northwest Zone. All of the EM and resistivity anomalies require a thorough field examination to determine their cause and any relationship to mineralization.In addition to the new targets generated by the 2018 airborne geophysical survey, a 3D inversion of data from Romios' 2013 ZTEM airborne survey recently completed by Geotech Ltd. has identified seven prominent low...
