WHY ROMIOS?

• Major Land Position in BC’s Golden Triangle and in four other world-class,

stable mining districts in Canada and the USA

• Properties in the vicinity of existing mines and deposits, owned or operated by

major mining companies (e.g. Newmont, Teck)

• Accessible Infrastructure.

• Desirable Commodities

- Copper, Gold, Silver and Cobalt

• Lundmark-Akow Lake Project: 2019 Discovery of high-grade Au-Cu vein

system and Cu-Au-Ag-Zn-(Co) massive sulphide horizons with 11 km of high-

priority geophysical targets. Extensive, largely untested iron formation with

potential for Musselwhite-type Au mineralization.

• Multi-million dollar exploration and drilling programs completed in 2019.

Additional showings nearby staked in 2020. Significant programs planned on

all major projects in 2021. Work is overseen by VP of Exploration, John

Biczok, P. Geo., former senior exploration and research geologist at the

Musselwhite gold mine for 12 years.

• Management with over 250 years combined industry experience

CORPORATE STRATEGY PLANS AND OBJECTIVES:

• Exploring for world-class gold vein, copper-gold porphyry,

skarn and VMS deposits in North America adjacent to existing

mines or major development projects.

• Enhance shareholder value by unlocking potential of Romios’

other properties through joint venture and/or strategic

partnership.

• Romios advanced the Lundmark-Akow Lake, Trek, North

Caribou and Scossa properties through exploration in 2020.

Drilling and other field work being planned for 2021.

• Romios’ Newmont Lake project is being advanced through

option with an $8 million, three year exploration plan.

LUNDMARK-AKOW LAKE PROJECT, NW ONTARIOFOUR MAJOR MINERAL DEPOSIT TARGETS

1. GOLD QUARTZ VEINS • High-grade gold quartz vein discovered by drilling in 2019: 8.6 g/t Au over 4.75m.

Best gold intercept in the entire belt outside of the Musselwhite mine area.

• Multiple unusual “Red Lake” type coarse calcite veins +/-Au point to a major, deep-

seated ore fluid system. Numerous drill targets remain.

2. MASSIVE SULPHIDE COPPER-GOLD-SILVER-(COBALT)• First discovery of this type in this belt by Romios at Atim Lake North in 2017,

multiple zones discovered along strike in 2019. Up to 3.5 m @ 1.26% Cu, 2.4 g/t Au,

23 g/t Ag. Individual conductors up to 700 m long with only one DDH so far.

• 11 km of VMS alteration pathway outlined by drilling with numerous targets left to

drill.

3. MUSSELWHITE STYLE GOLD-IN-BANDED IRON FORMATION• Property covers ~8 km of the same BIF that hosts the Musselwhite Gold Mine (>6 M

oz Au) 18 km to the south. Largely unexplored.

4. SHEAR ZONE GOLD• High grade narrow shear zones, up to 38 oz/t Au in grab samples, exposed at

basalt-porphyry contacts beside major deformation zone. Localized exploration in

1998-9. Au-Cu soil anomaly detected over magnetic low/shear flanking the

showings in 2019.

• Analogous to numerous gold camps including Yellowknife camp, NWT; Red Lake

and Beardmore-Geraldton, Ontario, etc.

HISTORY OF DISCOVERY

Romios Copper-Gold Zone

• Property staked in late 1990’s for gold

potential of the banded iron formation (BIF).

• Drilling of TEM conductors beside the BIF in

1998-9 discovered Cu-Au mineralized schist.

• Interpreted as a mineralized shear zone.

• No further work until 2016. 3 DDH that year

led to new geological model.

• Re-interpreted as alteration pathway/

plumbing for a VMS Massive Sulphide

system.

• Subsequent exploration focused on drill

testing conductors flanking this alteration

pathway where massive sulphides may have

been deposited on the paleo-seafloor.

• Only one drill hole in 2017; targeted stacked

conductors 1.6 km to the north at Atim Lake

North. Intersected Cu-Au-Ag-(Co) VMS
