Of particular interest from the work in BC were a number of promising mineralized boulders located on Romios' NorthEast claim block and a broad zone of porphyry-copper style alteration uncovered on the Trek South claims. All assays are pending.Romios' claims in the Golden Triangle of NW British Columbia cover a number of porphyry copper-gold, shear zone gold, and VMS base metal prospects concentrated near the giant Galore Creek Cu-Au porphyry deposits, owned by a Newmont-Teck JV, or along the partially constructed roadway to those deposits. Work on the Trek South porphyry Cu-Au target outlined an area of continuous strong epidote/propylitic alteration and an overlapping network of pyrite-quartz veinlets at least 1 km across with similarly altered outcrops occurring up to 2 km apart. Skarn-type veins of garnet-epidote-actinolite+/- pyrite are well developed at several locations within this broad alteration zone and minor chalcopyrite and secondary copper staining are scattered throughout the area within the epidote and skarn veins as well as local quartz veins. Much of this newly discovered \"South Zone\" alteration is on ground only recently exposed by the melting of a glacier and adjacent snowfields. Various geophysical and geochemical survey methods are now under consideration for this exciting target. The partially drilled off Trek \"North Zone\" is located ~3.5 km NNE of this new discovery and is one of the few appreciable porphyry Cu-Au zones in the area not owned by the Newmont-Teck JV. The >5 km long, NE-trending Trek Fault zone extends from the North to the South Zone area and is flanked by a number of historic prospects that have returned numerous high-grade assays in the past, e.g. 5.3% Cu and 8.77g/t Au over 3.6 metr...
