Romios Announces Completion of NI 43-101 Technical Report for the 100% Owned Trek Property in BC's Golden Triangle, Including the Drill-Ready Trek South Porphyry Copper-Gold Prospect

On January 22, 2026, Romios Gold (soon to be Oreterra Metals Corp.) announced the completion of an independent NI 43-101 Technical Report for its 100% owned Trek Property in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle. The report formally recommends a two-phase exploration program for the Trek South porphyry copper-gold prospect, which has never been drilled. * Phase One: 4,650 metres of drilling in 8 holes with a budget of $3.6 million. * Phase Two: Contingent on success, proposing 4,600 metres in 8 holes for $3.2 million. * Financing: The release notes a private placement financing has been announced to fund this work, pending TSX Venture Exchange approval. * Status: The property is fully drill-permitted.

This news follows the January 19, 2026 announcement that shareholders approved a name change to Oreterra Metals Corp. and a share consolidation (rollback) of up to 10:1.

This development is Material - Positive. 1. Technical Validation: The NI 43-101 report provides independent validation of the exploration model and is a regulatory prerequisite for raising the institutional capital required for a major drill program. 2. Strategic Reset: The simultaneous completion of the technical report, the name change to Oreterra, and the share consolidation signals the culmination of a year-long restructuring effort by CEO Kevin Keough (founder of GT Gold). The company is effectively shedding its "old Romios" skin to market itself as a fresh, drill-ready opportunity under a new brand. 3. Capital Enablement: Without this report, the company could not credibly raise the ~$3.6M needed for Phase 1. This news clears the path for the financing.

However, investors must note that funding is not yet secured. While the project is "drill-ready" technically, it is not "drill-ready" financially until the concurrent private placement closes.
