Toronto, Ontario – June 29, 2022: Romios Gold Resources Inc. (“Romios Gold” or the “Company”) (TSX.V-RG; OTCQB: RMIOF; Frankfurt: D4R) is pleased to report on the receipt of high-grade copper and silver assays to go with the previously reported high gold values (See June 14th, 2022 News Release) from chip and grab samples collected in April 2022 at several largely undocumented or poorly known historic gold-copper-silver prospects on the Company’s recently acquired Kinkaid project in Nevada.
The Kinkaid claims cover 911.2 Hectares (2,252 acres) in Mineral County, 18 km east of the town of Hawthorne, and are largely accessible by road.
“We are very excited by these high-grade copper and silver assays and the local abundance of bismuth, antimony and mercury in the numerous gold bearing veins recently identified on the southern claims of the Kinkaid property,” stated Stephen Burega, President. “We are developing a coherent geological model of this widespread vein system which will now be explored through detailed geological mapping and advanced tools like hyperspectral satellite image studies and low-level drone magnetic surveys.”
Highlights:
“These samples were collected from poorly documented old mine workings, and the association of the high-grade copper, gold and silver mineralization with elements such as antimony, bismuth and mercury would indicate that many of these prospects are epithermal vein systems that should have greater potential for vertically zoned gold-silver-base metal mineralization than was perhaps recognized by operators in decades past,” commented John Biczok, Romios’ VP of Exploration.
2022 Exploration Plans
Romios plans to undertake a program of detailed geological mapping and sampling across the Kinkaid property in 2022 with emphasis on the numerous mineralized showings. A drone magnetic survey is expected to be particularly useful in tracing the skarn horizon targets under cover and a hyperspectral satellite image study currently underway is expected to outline the alteration zones associated with the Au-Ag-Cu vein systems. Diamond drilling of several showings is anticipated.

Photo #1 - Sample #E268328 from the “Au-Cu Adits” dump site. Massive, black, tarnished chalcopyrite (copper-iron sulphide) and green secondary copper mineral staining in a white quartz vein. Assayed 5.7% Cu, 1.7 g/t Au. 34 g/t Ag. One of very many such pieces at this site, some assaying up to 17.9 g/t Au.
QA/QC
All samples were submitted to the ISO/IEC 17025 accredited ALS laboratory in Reno, Nevada for assay. As a matter of procedure, a rigorous quality assurance and quality control program was implemented in the form of blanks and Certified Reference Material standards at every 10th position in the sample series. The assay results of these standards and blanks were well within the acceptable ranges.
