Press Releases

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(CCNMatthews - May 10, 2006) - Romios Gold Resources Inc. ("Romios" or "the Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:RG) is pleased to announce that it intends to resume drilling on its Scossa Gold Property ("The Property") in the state of Nevada, U.S.A. The Corporation's Notice of Intent to undertake a drill program and a Reclamation Bond was approved on May 4, 2006 by the Nevada State Office of the Bureau of Land Management, allowing Romios to proceed with its proposed 3,000 metres (approximately 10,000 feet) drill program on the property. George DeLong Construction Inc. of Winnemucca, Nevada has been contracted to carry out the drilling and the work is expected to commence during the next few days. Romios plans to drill a number of holes, deeper than those previously completed, to test the depth continuity of the gold mineralization encountered in earlier drilling on the property.

As previously reported (Press Releases dated October 10, 2000 and September 17, 2003), two drill programs were completed earlier by Romios to test several of the gold-bearing, epithermal quartz breccia veins on the property. Significant high grade gold intersections included:

DDH-00-02    1.83 meters    364.04 Au g/tonne    10.63 Au oz./ton
             (6.0 feet)
DDH-00-03    1.98 meters    295.20 Au g/tonne     8.62 Au oz./ton
             (6.5 feet)
DDH-00-05    1.46 meters     68.84 Au g/tonne     2.01 Au oz./ton
             (4.8 feet)

The Scossa property, located in Pershing County in the north central portion of Nevada, consists of 41 lode mineral claims totaling 388.5 hectares (960 acres) in area and an option to acquire an additional 320 acres. The property is located approximately 6 miles southeast of the Rosebud Mine (Hecla and Newmont Mining), a high grade, underground gold mine which ceased operations recently and about 8 miles southeast of Vista Gold Corporation's Hycroft Mine, an open pit gold mine that has produced over 1.1 million ounces of gold to date (currently on a "care and maintenance" basis).

The property encompasses a number of steeply-dipping, gold-bearing, epithermal, brecciated quartz veins and fault breccias that range from several feet to more than 10 feet in width. In an earlier exploration program carried out by Romios, a total of 11 old shafts and extensive underground workings were mapped and sampled along various levels. Exposures within these shafts indicated the existence of at least five significant, vein-filled structures on the property, which are believed to extend well beyond the immediate area of the historic workings. Four additional, parallel structures were identified on the property with little or no evidence of any previous work.
