Romios augments the extent of the Porphyry Copper-Gold prospect within the Golden Triangle region of British Columbia, with plans for initial drilling in 2026.
In the heart of British Columbia's Golden Triangle, North Shore Mining has plans to drill the Trek South porphyry iron ore deposit in 2026. This exciting development is being spearheaded by Romios Gold Resources Inc., a mineral exploration company listed on the TSXV, which holds several wholly-owned porphyry copper-gold prospects in the region.
The Trek South prospect, the most significant of Romios' holdings in the Golden Triangle, boasts a drill permit and an updated NI 43-101 report in the works. The opportunity at Trek South lies in targeting a large geophysical anomaly beneath previous drilling, which may represent the main body of a source intrusion. Additionally, the roots of the mineralized hydrothermal breccia that returned impressive assays in the initial holes warrant a second look.
Recent activities at Trek South include prospecting and sampling of the high-grade Eskay Creek-style Toe Zone, which has extended the zone southwestward by several hundred metres. Mapping of the ice front and comparison with historical air photos suggest rapid glacial retreat, exposing a large glacial meltwater-filled depression in the area of intense porphyry-style alteration at the toe of the Trek South glacier.
In cooperation with B.C. government geologists, Romios personnel have carried out rock sampling of the newly discovered porphyry dyke and other mineralized outcrops at Trek South for age-dating and petrographic analysis. Geophysical surveys have revealed a strong, 850-metre-long IP chargeability anomaly coincident with a pronounced magnetic high, suggesting a large porphyry core beneath areas already exposed by glacial retreat.
A mineralized feldspar-biotite porphyritic dyke, approximately 3 metres in width, has been discovered at Trek South, providing the first direct evidence for the intrusion thought to underlie Trek South's surface alteration. The first-ever drilling of Trek South is planned for the 2026 field season.
Romios Gold Resources Inc. also holds interests in two former producers in Nevada: the Kinkaid claims and the Scossa mine property. The company retains an ongoing interest in several properties, including a 2% NSR on McEwen Mining's Hislop gold property in Ontario and a 2% NSR on Enduro Metals' Newmont Lake Au-Cu-Ag property in BC.
Trek South is located adjacent to Teck-Newmont's Galore Creek deposits, presently undergoing pre-feasibility studies, and is bisected by the road right-of-way thereto. The company's main focus is to advance its efforts towards discoveries through drilling in the second half of 2025 and into 2026. An independent Qualified Person has inspected the priority Trek South target area, confirming it as an excellent location for drilling, with straightforward drill setups and fresh, non-weathered bedrock.
Lastly, Romios Gold Resources Inc. holds a 100% interest in the large-scale Lundmark-Akow Lake Au-Cu property adjacent to the northwest of the Musselwhite Mine. The company's aim is to make significant discoveries and contribute to the ongoing growth of the mining industry in British Columbia.
