[{"type":"text","content":"Romios Discovers Gold and Base Metal Mineralization on Two Properties in the Golden Triangle, B.C.Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - October 27, 2021) - Romios Gold Resources Inc. (TSXV: RG) (OTCQB: RMIOF) (FSE: D4R) (\"Romios Gold\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report on the latest discovery of gold and base metal mineralization on two of the Company's ten 100%-owned claim blocks in the Golden Triangle of northwestern British Columbia that all together cover a total of 360 sq km (excluding the Newmont Lake claims currently under option to Enduro Metals Corp. - See Dec. 4, 2018 Press Release).During a month-long field program this past summer, the exploration team discovered the most significant gold and copper mineralization to date on the North-East and North-West claim blocks. Assays are currently pending from several other claim blocks including the recently discovered Trek South porphyry Cu-Au prospect.Highlights:Both claim blocks are very close to the partially cleared road route to the enormous Galore Creek Cu-Au porphyry deposit(s) and are completely surrounded by Galore Creek Mining Corp. claims.North-East Claim BlockThe rapid melting of the glacier overlying the edge of the Hazelton Group rocks on the North-East claim block has now exposed a broad area of pyritic argillites/shales. This same group hosts numerous major ore deposits in the Golden Triangle, including the very high-grade Eskay Creek Au-Ag deposit.A number of large boulders of semi-massive pyrite and minor chalcopyrite were discovered in 2021, five of which assayed 0.2% to 0.7% Cu with two also being anomalous in gold - 0.3 and 1.35 g/t Au.One talus boulder of quartz vein material assayed 9.4 g/t gold.North-West Claim BlockExploration in 2021 was focussed on areas underlain by a large pluton of the Texas Creek suite, an early Jurassic series of intrusions that host numerous gold deposits in this region including the Sulphurets, Scottie, Snip, Silbak Premier and Red Mountain deposits.Numerous large quartz veins were found on the North-West claims, many of them 0.5 m to 1.0 m wide.Two boulders of quartz vein material with minor pyrite assayed 5.3 and 8.9 g/t Au and a sample of a pyritic vein in outcrop assayed 5.8 g/t Au.\"The source outcrops still need to be tracked down next summer and the extent of the mineralization assessed, how...
