In a sign of confidence for Bryah Resources’ developing Bryah Basin manganese project, JV partner OM Holdings has committed to grow its stake to 51%.

OM, which is funding exploration at the project owned and managed by Bryah Resources (ASX: BYH), has again put its money where its mouth is with a commitment to spend a fourth tranche of $500,000 at the JV.

It will take the total investment OM has made in the JV to $3 million since 2019, after the Singapore-based miner recently spent a further $500,000 to up its stake from 30-40%.

Malaysian-listed OM’s enthusiasm for the Bryah Basin JV has only gotten stronger since Bryah reported recent samples of up to 49% in rock chips.
While it didn’t release an announcement of its own, OM’s shares skyrocketed this morning by 24% to more than $1.

180 Markets raised $4m for Bryah Resources (ASX: BYH) at a price of 7.5c per share. All investors received a free attaching 9c option that will expire in 2023. The raise was many times oversubscribed which is not surprising given the current investor confidence in the copper, gold and manganese sectors. Funds raised will be applied for its extremely busy drilling at the company's Bryah Basin and Gabanintha projects, for sample analyses, technological staff & contractors, remote sensing and metallurgical testwork. Bryah Resources has successfully been granted an allocation of up to $585,000 in JMEI tax credits for the 2020/2021 income tax year. It has been a long time coming since Bryah Resources has been fully funded and now they are able to be fully capitalised on their drilling projects. Drill Drill Drill. Previous raises have fallen short and we at 180 Markets were extremely proud to be so heavily oversubscribed.

ASX Capital Raise Review is a fortnightly look at ASX capital raisings.

Should we lock ‘em down for 22 hours per day or let ‘em loose, in Melbourne? Is inflation heading out of control or is technology innovation the ultimate deflator? What are the correct answers? The simple truth is we don’t know and you should be prepared to get comfortable with uncertainty.

Regarding the inflation topic, we are seeing strong interest in those companies with commodity projects including the likes of Duke Exploration (ASX: DEX), Argonaut Resources (ASX: ARE), and Bryah Resources (ASX: BYH) which act as a hedge against inflation. Whether inflation is real or perceived, the issue is affecting current share prices positively.
