Minerals exploration specialist Romios Gold<\/a> is working towards a partnership for Golden Triangle copper targets and has made significant progress with copper and gold exploration in Nevada.<\/h2>\n

As a veteran Canadian-listed junior explorer, Romios Gold (RG.V) continues to identify high-potential precious and base-metal targets across its numerous properties in both British Columbia and Nevada. Under new leadership, the company is narrowing its focus towards its high-grade Nevada copper and gold targets while entertaining potential partnership opportunities on its Canadian core-asset base.<\/p>\n

In autumn 2022, Romios announced the discovery of a broad, very strong induced polarization (IP) anomaly underlying its Trek South copper-gold-silver porphyry target and a newly discovered associated area of widespread copper-tungsten skarn. The company\u2019s total land package in the Golden Triangle covers over 400km2<\/sup> and is host to numerous precious and base metal targets along the same geology and many of the trends as the Brucejack, Eskay Creek, and Galore Creek deposits.<\/p>\n

The Trek South target was discovered in 2021 after the local snow and icefields had melted back far enough to expose mineralised and altered bedrock, and the company\u2019s 2022 summer field programme completed a highly successful induced polarization\/magnetotelluric (IP\/MT) survey identifying a very strong and quite large IP anomaly pointing to substantial sulphide mineralisation at shallow levels right under the centre of the previously identified copper-gold-silver porphyry system.<\/p>\n

The company is very excited by the results of the IP\/MT surveys and the new mineralisation discovered this past summer. It is hard to imagine a better target coming out of the programme and Romios is eager to begin drilling at Trek South and exploring potential joint-venture partnerships to take the Trek South project forward towards a potential discovery.<\/p>\n

The IP anomaly at Trek South is at least 800m long and 250-500m wide, and extends to a depth of at least 650m. The MT survey indicates that it carries on to a depth of over 2km<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The first indications that the company had something important was the 2021 discovery of a 1km-wide zone of very strong epidote alteration<\/a>, overlayed with an 800m-wide stockwork of quartz-pyrite veinlets with many showings of highly anomalous gold, silver, and copper values. This type of alteration and veining are typical of the peripheral zones around and over the top of a porphyry copper-gold system.<\/p>\n

The size of the Trek South porphyry and skarn target is quite substantial and similar to a number of major deposits in the region. It represents Romios\u2019 most significant project in British Columbia\u2019s Golden Triangle for several important reasons, including:<\/p>\n
