(TSXV: RG) (OTC Pink: RMIOF) (FSE: D4R) (\"Romios\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to present the results of a 3 week field program completed at the end of July, 2018 on the Company's Newmont Lake Property in the Golden Triangle Area of Northwestern British Columbia. The field results are highlighted by the recognition of elevated cobalt values at several sites, fault-related, apparent epi-mesothermal Au-Ag-Cu mineralization along a major fault, and very high Cu-Au-Ag-Co values in late stage veins at 2 skarn showings (Additional background information, maps and photographs are posted at http://romios.com/s/Summer2018MapsPhotos.asp). Examination of a 1.6 km long series of copper-gold bearing skarn zones known as the Ken-Glacier-O'Neill Zones, located 3 km north of the North West Zone, confirmed the presence of numerous magnetite skarns up to 2-3 m thick over a vertical height of at least 40 m with considerable down-dip potential for additional mineralization. Past drilling by Romios at the Ken Zone returned values up to 6.1 m @ 1.5 g/t Au and 0.34% Cu, as well as three samples with 251 to 701 ppm Cobalt (Note: 500 ppm = 1 pound per short ton). Chip sampling along some of the exposed skarns this summer returned values up to 1.35% Cu, 3.0 g/t Au and 259 ppm Co. Two copper-rich carbonate veins cutting the skarn horizons returned spectacular grades of 10.4% to 11.5 % Cu, 30.3 to 32.5 g/t Au, <1 to 135 g/t Ag and 372 ppm to 635 ppm Co across widths of 0.5 to 1.0 m. The exposed lengths of these veins is likely <5 m, however, they may be part of a larger system of widespread, late iron carbonate veins. A 1 m chip sample across one such iron carbonate filled fault structure returned 1.1 g/t Au and 0.18% Cu. The iron carbonate zones commonly form up to 50% of local outcrops and can be >20 m wide. The results from the very limited sampling of these zones suggest that a detailed sampling program is warranted to evaluate their bulk tonnage potential.Exploration south of the North West Zone led to the discovery of a >1 ...
