Romios-Copperhead Option Discovers Highly Prospective Intrusions on the Red Line Claims Project, Golden Triangle, B.C.

Romios-Copperhead Option Discovers Highly Prospective Intrusions on the Red Line Claims Project, Golden Triangle, B.C.

Romios Gold Resources Inc. (TSXV: RG) (OTCQB: RMIOF) (FSE: D4R) ("Romios") and Copperhead Resources Inc. ("Copperhead") are pleased to report that they have discovered three highly prospective intrusions on the Red Line claims in the mineral rich Golden Triangle area of NW British Columbia. These intrusions include 2 areas of K-feldspar porphyritic syenite similar to one of the key units found at the giant Galore Creek porphyry Cu-Au deposit owned by Teck and Newmont.

Romios' VP of Exploration, Mr. John Biczok, P. Geo, commented, "The 2023 exploration program on the Red Line claims has made a very important step forward by discovering what appears to be the same type of intrusive rocks that are associated with the alkalic porphyry Cu-Au-Ag deposits of this region, as well as large areas of the epidote and pyritic alteration typically found in the outer shells around such mineralization. We are looking forward to exploring these exciting targets during the next phase of the field work."

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • A previously undocumented K-feldspar porphyritic syenite pluton believed to be more than 300 m wide was discovered
  • Numerous K-feldspar syenite boulders were located on the Red Line 2 claim, derived from the upper part of a steep ridge of metasediments and lesser volcanics which are often pervasively altered to epidote. The association of strong epidote alteration with the syenite dykes may be indicative of a porphyry copper type system at depth here.

  • A second, previously unknown pluton was located on the Red Line 2 and 3 claims, in this case a >700 m long body of pervasively altered hornblende granodiorite.

  • The discovery of these 2 highly prospective plutons, and the numerous syenite dykes associated with widespread epidote alteration, has significantly improved the odds of locating a porphyry Cu-Au-Ag type occurrence on the Red Line claims.

BACKGROUND

Original Claims: The original Red Line claims were staked in 2020 to cover a portion of the so-called "Red Line" stratigraphic contact between lower Jurassic Hazelton Group rocks and upper Triassic Stuhini Group rocks. Many of the major ore deposits in the northern Golden Triangle of NW British Columbia occur within 2 km of this contact. In addition, the claims cover the northern projection of the same Eskay Rift strata that host the historic Eskay Creek mine 32 km to the south. This phenomenally high-grade gold and silver former-producer is now being explored anew by Skeena Resources.

During the 2022 field program, a number of porphyritic syenite boulders and other intrusive rocks were found in creeks draining the area south of the claims. This area was staked as the Red Line 2, 3 and 4 claims in 2022 and 2023. The syenite dyke swarm and granodiorite pluton discovered in July 2023 were found on these new claims.

Porphyritic Syenite Pluton: During the recent 2023 exploration program, a very gossanous, K-feldspar porphyritic syenite intrusion (field name), thought to be at least 300 m wide, was noted on open ground south of the Red Line claims. The syenite intrusion has numerous large patches of pyritic gossans throughout, potentially indicative of the pyrite shell around a porphyry Cu-Au system. After a brief examination the area was immediately staked and added to the Red Line property.

The probable southern contact of the intrusion is marked by a major gossan that occurs in a rugged area not examined on the ground as yet. The other margins of the intrusion have yet to be defined but may be partially concealed under a small glacier and glacial till outwash plains. Mineralization in alkalic porphyry deposits such as Galore Creek is often best developed in the margins of the intrusions and the adjacent host rocks.

There is no public record of any significant exploration work in the immediate area and this important syenite porphyry is not shown on any government geological map. It is possible that much of the intrusion was covered by the glacier during the government geological mapping programs. The syenite closely resembles a member of the Galore Creek intrusive suite associated with porphyry copper prospects elsewhere in this region (e.g. Enduro Metals Burgundy Ridge occurrence, the Galore Creek deposit, etc.). The intrusion on the new Red Line claim is by far the largest and most gossanous that Romios' geologists are familiar with anywhere in the region outside of Galore Creek. A sample was collected and sent to the University of British Columbia geochronology centre to determine if it is indeed the same age as the Galore Creek suite.

Syenite Dyke Swarm and Associated Epidote Alteration: A 1 km long ridge on the Red Line 4 claim is notable for the prominent and relatively pervasive epidote alteration, potentially part of the propylitic alteration zone around the periphery of a porphyry centre. Numerous coarse-grained K-feldspar porphyritic boulders occur along the lower slopes of this steep ridge, presumably derived from a dyke swarm at higher elevations. Minor secondary copper mineralization was noted on fracture surfaces in some of the local sedimentary talus. The valley floors on either side of the ridge are occupied by small glaciers but the association of the epidote alteration, syenite dyke swarm, and local copper mineralization warrants a detailed examination of the lower elevations for further indications of a porphyry system at depth beneath this ridge. A sample of the syenite has also been sent for age-dating at the University of British Columbia.

Hornblende Granodiorite Pluton: A previously unknown pluton of hornblende granodiorite (field name) was discovered on the Red Line 2 and 3 claims during the July program. The pluton has been mapped out for over 700 m in length so far and is at least 150 m wide. It is notable for the pervasive green alteration and the disseminated pyrite found throughout most of the unit. Lithogeochemical analyses and thin section studies are planned to determine if the alteration is part of a porphyry-type system and if this pluton is part of the Galore Creek suite.

Property Size And Ownership: Following the integration of the Red Line 5 claim into the Project, the property size of the Project has been expanded to a total of 10 claims, covering a combined area of 3,989 hectares. Pursuant to an Option Agreement signed on April 6th, 2022, Romios has granted Copperhead Resources the exclusive right and option to acquire a 75% ownership interest in the Project over a 3 year term by financing annual exploration programs beginning in 2022 and making certain cash payments and stock grants to Romios (see Press Release April 6, 2022).

FPX Nickel Signs Exploration Agreement with Takla Nation for Klow Property

FPX Nickel Signs Exploration Agreement with Takla Nation for Klow Property

 FPX Nickel Corp. (TSXV: FPX) (OTCQB: FPOCF) (" FPX " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce the signing of an Exploration Agreement (the " Agreement ") with the Takla Nation for exploration activities associated with the Klow property in central British Columbia . The Agreement outlines a collaborative framework for FPX and Takla Nation to move forward responsibly with early-stage exploration, establishing important protocols for engagement, environmental protection, employment, training, and business opportunities.

"This Agreement underscores our commitment to engagement with Indigenous communities from the earliest stages of our exploration work," said Martin Turenne , President, CEO, and Director of FPX. "We look forward to continuing to work with the Takla Nation, guided by transparency, respect, and a shared vision for sustainable development in Takla territory."

"The signing of this agreement marks an important step in strengthening our relationship with FPX. By establishing clear principles for engagement, this agreement ensures that our voices are heard from the earliest stages of exploration," commented Chief John French of Takla Nation. "We look forward to working collaboratively with FPX to protect our lands and ensure shared benefits for our community."

Background

The Klow Property is situated approximately 120 km northwest of Fort St. James and around 45 km north of FPX's flagship Baptiste Nickel Project. Portions of the Klow Property are accessible via an all-season public road which connects Fort St. James to Takla Landing . Like the Baptiste Nickel Project, the exploration target for the Klow property is nickel in the form of awaruite, a sulphur-free, nickel-iron mineral (Ni 3 Fe) hosted by serpentinized ultramafic rocks.

Exploration at the Klow Property has advanced in several stages since its initial evaluation. Between 2010 and 2012, FPX conducted geological mapping and rock sampling that delineated a large awaruite target area measuring approximately 1.5 by 1.0 kilometres, with encouraging surface grades. In 2012, a five-hole, 1,579-metre diamond drill program tested a portion of this target, with hole DH-4 intersecting 316 metres grading 0.10% nickel-in-alloy 1 from 10 metres downhole. In 2024, the Company re-analyzed 68 archived core samples from DH-4 using Davis Tube Recoverable (DTR) methods, which confirmed strong correlation with historical nickel-in-alloy values and returned DTR nickel grades averaging 7–10% higher than the original nickel-in-alloy results. Also in 2024, FPX expanded the Klow mineral claims to 251 km 2 , covering mainly prospective ultramafic rocks of the Trembleur Ultramafite, host to mineralization at Baptiste.

As announced in May 2025 , FPX undertook a summer 2025 surface rock sampling program, 100% funded by the Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (" JOGMEC "). The Agreement with Takla Nation will enable planning and readiness for future exploration activities.

Klow Property Earn-In Agreement

As previously disclosed, FPX and JOGMEC have entered into an earn-in agreement (the " Klow Earn-In Agreement ") which provides JOGMEC the option to earn a beneficial interest in the Company's Klow Property in central British Columbia .

The key terms of the Klow Earn-in Agreement are as follows:

  • FPX grants to JOGMEC the option to earn a 60% beneficial interest in Klow by funding $1,000,000 in exploration expenditures by no later than March 31, 2027 (extended from a prior deadline of March 31, 2026 by mutual agreement of the parties)
  • Once JOGMEC has earned its 60% beneficial interest in Klow, the parties will thereafter fund exploration expenditures pro rata to their ownership interest
  • If either party's beneficial interest in Klow is diluted below 10%, that party's beneficial interest will be converted into a 1.5% NSR royalty over Klow, with the other party retaining a right to buy-back 1.0% of the NSR royalty for $3,500,000

Note 1: results were obtained by geochemical analysis and may not accurately represent Davis Tube Recoverable (DTR) nickel grades. DTR nickel values refer to the portion of the total contained nickel that is recovered from a magnetically separated fraction of the sample. Nickel-in-alloy results refer to nickel recovered by a selective geochemical leach which targets nickel contained in awaruite. While both methods measure nickel in awaruite, awaruite particle exposure and grain size influence each method slightly differently, therefore these results are not directly comparable.

Keith Patterson , P.Geo., FPX's Vice President, Exploration, FPX's Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical content of this news release.

About FPX Nickel Corp.

FPX Nickel Corp. is focused on the exploration and development of the Baptiste Nickel Project, located in central British Columbia , and other occurrences of the same unique style of naturally occurring nickel-iron alloy mineralization known as awaruite.
