[{"type":"text","content":"Romios Completes 2020 Field Work in the Golden Triangle, Identifies Strong Alteration Zones at Recent Copper-Gold Discoveries on its TREK SOUTH and ANDREI EAST Porphyry TargetsToronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 2, 2020) - Romios Gold Resources Inc. (TSXV: RG) (OTC Pink: RMIOF) (FSE: D4R) (\"Romios\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report that the planned field work has been completed on its TREK SOUTH and ANDREI EAST porphyry copper-gold targets in the prolific Golden Triangle area of NW British Columbia, Canada and that the initial geological results are quite encouraging. All 2020 sample assays are pending. The TREK property is located 10 km SE of the enormous, >1.1 Billion tonne, Galore Creek porphyry Cu-Au deposits which are owned by a Teck-Newmont JV (\"GCMC\") and are in the midst of a multi-year program to bring them to the pre-feasibility study stage (see Map 1 below). GCMC has largely finished a road from provincial highway 37 to the site of a proposed mill complex 11 km east of the TREK claims, and cleared a roadway from there to the deposit area across the middle of the TREK claims. The ANDREI EAST site is a new target discovered by Romios in 2019 located 17 km SE of the proposed GCMC mill and 13 km north of Romios' NorthWest Au-Cu-Ag Zone which is currently under option to, and being actively explored by, Enduro Metals Corp.The field work was undertaken on Romios' behalf by geologists from HEG & Associates. This team spent several days on each of the 2 aforementioned sites conducting geological mapping and hyperspectral surveys designed to identify alteration minerals potentially associated with porphyry copper systems. TREK SOUTH: In 2019 a new zone of skarn-type alteration veins with local copper-gold-pyrite mineralization was located on the southern TREK claims in an area only recently exposed by melting snowfields. A sample of one such vein assayed 0.4% Cu, 1 g/t Au and 3 g/t Ag and a sulphidic float sample assayed 1.4% Cu, 3.6 g/t Au and 48 g/t Ag. An arcuate series of historic high-grade Cu-Au-Ag showings with strong alteration envelopes occurs 400 to 600 m from an inferred pluton margin suggesting that there may be a buried porphyry Cu-Au-Ag system in this area. Results of the 2020 mapping and hyperspectral survey are now being analysed in detail by experts from HEG, however, the field crew ...
