Bryah Resources (BYH) has reported its quarterly report for the period ending on December 31, 2019.

Tumblegum South Gold-Copper prospect

Drilling at the Tumblegum South Gold-Copper prospect was completed in October 2019. The prospect is within trucking distance of multiple existing gold plants in the region.

A total of 16 reverse circulation (RC) drill holes for 1,583 metres were completed.

Results from this drilling include 4 metres at 7.83 grams per tonne (g/t) of gold and 0.23 per cent of copper, including 1 metre at 30.24 g/t and 0.28 per cent copper.

The company used a revised 3D geological model of the Tumblegum South prospect. This model is being used to undertake a Mineral Resource Estimation, which is expected to be completed later this month.

Bryah Basin Project

The Bryah Basin Project is located in central Western Australia.

Last year, the company executed a Manganese Farm-In and Joint Venture Agreement with OM (Manganese). The agreement covers only 660 kilometres squared of the entire tenement.

OMM funded $500,000 of project expenditure, which went into drilling highly encouraging manganese drilling results.

In August, OMM proceeded with the joint venture and paid $250,000 exercise fee and earned 10 per cent interest in the project.

Under Stage 2 of the Agreement, OMM will progressively fund the next $2 million of exploration expenditure to earn up to a 51 per cent interest in the Manganese JV by June 30, 2022.

In October, a 1,100 point gravity survey was completed on a 100 metres by 50 metres grid over the Windalah Copper-Gold Prospect.

In 2018 at Windalah, an RC drilling program identified high-grade mineralisation in two holes.

At the end of 2019, the company has $1.5 million in cash, which is a significant increase from September as Bryah had $259,000.

On market close, Bryah remains steady and trading at 4.9¢ apiece.
