Romios Gold Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RG)(OTCBB:RMIOF)(FRANKFURT:D4R) is
pleased to announce that it has commenced an exploration program on its Newmont
Lake and Trek Projects located in the Golden Triangle mineralized district in
northwestern British Columbia. Romios' mineral tenures are located among Pretium
Resources' Brucejack deposit, Barrick Gold's Eskay Creek mine, and the Galore
Creek Mining Corporation's (GCMC, a NovaGold/Teck Resources' joint venture)
Galore Creek project.


The Newmont Lake Project area hosts a series of high quality gold, silver, and
copper bearing (Au, Ag, and Cu) porphyry and massive sulphide occurrences along
a major fault system. Exploration efforts have already identified the Ken,
Jazzman, and Cuba zones, and the high-grade Northwest Zone massive sulphide
deposit containing an NI 43-101 Inferred Resource of 1.406 million tonnes
grading approximately 4.43 g/t Au, 0.22% Cu, and 6.4 g/t Ag, or a gold
equivalent grade (AuEq) of 5.16 g/t (see Press Release dated March 26, 2007).
Mineral Resources have not demonstrated economic viability and therefore are not
Mineral Reserves. A metallurgical test hole R08-07 drilled in 2008 within the
central portion of the Northwest Zone intersected bonanza grade gold and silver
mineralization grading 753 g/t Au (21.96 oz), 0.69% Cu, and 462 g/t (13.47 oz)
Ag over a core length of 0.44 metres (1.45 feet) within a 14.01 metre (45.95
feet) mineralized interval that assayed 26.44 g/t (.77 oz) Au, 21.36 g/t (.62
oz) Ag and 0.21% Cu.


Recent geological work by Romios suggests that the massive sulphide zones on the
Newmont Lake Project are likely connected by a series of major fault systems and
feeder zones that management believes can be traced using modern exploration
methods. Collectively, the massive sulphides and porphyry-related mineralization
may represent a major polymetallic district within approximately 15 kilometres
of developing road, power, and communications infrastructure (Press Release
dated April 3, 2012).


The 2012 exploration program will consist principally of diamond drilling and
will also include ground geophysical surveys. A drill rig and crew were
mobilized to the property on July 2nd. The geophysical program, expected to
start in mid July, will use a portable single-point source of audio-
magnetotellurics ("AMT") to test for horizons of conductive mineralization
adjacent to and up to 500 metres below known mineralized areas. The program may
also include down-hole induced- polarization and resistivity tomographic
surveys.


Romios' exploration program targets the following five principle areas:



--  Extensions to the significant and near-surface Au and Cu grades at the
    Ken Zone to the west, south, and at depth. 
--  Drilling at the Jazzman Zone, located 150 metres to the north and 300
    metres below the Northwest Zone, which may represent another Northwest
    Zone-style body of mineralization along trend. Historic drilling in 1990
    by Jazzman Resources (drill hole J90-02) encountered widespread
    mineralization that assayed 0.32 g/t Au over 70 metres, which included
    nine 1.0 metre-long intervals ranging from 1.05 to 9.2 g/t Au, and ended
    in mineralization that assayed 4.2 g/t Au over 1.3 metres. 
--  Continuation and advancement of the drilling success and discoveries
    encountered during 2011 drilling on the '72 and Telena Zones' porphyry-
    style Cu, Au, Ag, and Pd/Pt. 
--  Continued mineralization definition by channel sampling at the North
    Zone on Romios' Trek property. Geophysics in the area will additionally
    target offset sections of the North Zone. 
--  A series of prospective targets and additional higher-grade occurrences
    will be evaluated with ongoing exploration efforts.
