TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Dec. 18, 2007) - Romios Gold Resources Inc.
(TSX VENTURE:RG)(OTCBB:RMIOF)(FRANKFURT:D4R) is pleased to announce the
results of its diamond drill program carried out during the summer of 2007
at its Newmont Lake Property in the Galore Creek area of northwestern
British Columbia. The most significant results from the program were
encountered in Holes R-07-09 and R-07-01.
Hole R-07-09 was drilled vertically to a depth of 190.5 metres (625.0 feet)
and was designed to test an induced polarization anomaly believed to be
reflecting an extension to the zone of gold-copper-silver mineralization at
the NW Zone. The hole intersected four distinct zones of sulphide and
magnetite mineralization associated with silicification and brecciation
similar to that which characterizes the NW Zone.
From 10.67m to 30.36m (19.69 metres or 64.60 feet) in the hole, the core
was calculated to have a weighted average grade of 7.82 grams/tonne
(0.23oz/t) gold), 0.42% copper and 12.45 grams/tonne (0.36 oz/t) silver.
Within this interval, two zones of higher grade mineralization were
encountered, one between 13.72m and 16.76m (3.04 metres or 9.97 feet) which
assayed 19.70 grams/tonne (0.57 oz/t) gold, 0.45% copper and 12.60
grams/tonne (0.37 oz/t) silver and the other between 26.61m and 28.96m
(2.35 metres or 7.71 feet) which assayed 27.32 grams/tonne (0.80 oz/t)
gold, 0.46% copper and 9.96 grams/tonne (0.29 oz/t) silver.
Three additional zones of gold-copper-silver mineralization were
intersected in the hole. From 37.03m to 43.28m ( 6.25 metres or 20.5 feet)
a highly altered, pyritic breccia was found to contain a weighted average
of 4.14 grams/tonne (0.12 oz/t) gold, 0.20% copper and 5.46 grams/tonne
(0.16 oz/t) silver. From 67.67m to 69.34m (1.67 metres or 5.48 feet), a
semi-massive zone of pyrite assayed 6.58 grams/tonne (0.20 oz/t) gold, 0.74
% copper and 29.60 grams/tonne (0.86 oz/t) silver. From 91.44m to 93.15m (
1.71 metres or 5.6 feet), a moderately altered pyritic zone contained
grades of 2.45 grams/tonne (.07 oz/t) gold, 0.134% copper and 1.3
grams/tonne (0.038 oz/t) silver.
Based on information obtained from drill logs, a recently completed
computer modeling program relating to the NW Zone and an examination of
drill core, the widths of the intersections in drill hole R-07-09 are
assumed to be true widths.
The following chart outlines the detailed information relating to the
sampling and analyses of the drill core from diamond drill hole R-07-09.
