TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 17, 2011) - Romios Gold Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RG)(OTCBB:RMIOF)(FRANKFURT:D4R) ("Romios" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the results from the analyses of the remainder of the drill core samples from the diamond drill program carried out during the month of August, 2011 on Romios' wholly-owned Dirk Property in the vicinity of Galore Creek in northwestern British Columbia.

Romios completed four diamond drill holes collectively totalling 743 metres (2,437.6 feet) in length on the Dirk Property during August of 2011 which encountered copper (Cu), gold (Au) and silver (Ag)-bearing sulphides near-surface in all of the drill holes within breccias and intrusions that appear to be genetically related to syenitic intrusions similar to those located at the neighbouring NovaGold-Teck Resources' Galore Creek Project, Seabridge Gold's KSM and Brucejack Projects in northwestern British Columbia and Imperial Metals' Mount Polley Project in central British Columbia.

Romios' CEO Tom Drivas stated "We are very excited about the Dirk drill results. This is the first drill program undertaken by Romios on the Dirk property and these early results may indicate the presence of significant new porphyry mineralization. British Columbia porphyry-type orebodies are typically large tonnage, lower grade deposits. To date, we have identified four zones of copper-gold-silver mineralization on the Dirk property which coincide with a 4 km long airborne magnetic anomaly identified in a recent survey commissioned by Romios. Only two zones, approximately 2 km apart, have been tested with the drilling carried out to date. The results from the diamond drilling carried out during the last several field seasons, demonstrate the potential for significant porphyry mineralization both on the Dirk and Trek properties. We are awaiting additional assay results from the drilling carried out on the Trek property and intend to continue our exploration efforts to evaluate the overall porphyry potential of these properties."
