Bryah Resources Limited announced that it has completed drilling at its Bryah Basin Olympus copper gold project. Bryah was granted $130,000 in round 24 of the Western Australian Government's EIS (Exploration Incentive Scheme) to undertake a 2,000m RC drilling program to test the Olympus geochemical anomaly (OGA) on the northern limb of the Mars Dome. The program completed 9 holes totaling 2,148m.

The OGA is a strike extensive multi-element soil anomaly characterised by a Cu-Sb-As-Cd-W-Zn-Au- Mo-S-(Se) association, remarkably similar to the soil anomaly at Windalah. This has been further supported by 1:5,000 scale geological mapping and rock chip geochemical sampling undertaken since. Rock chip samples indicate that rocks at Olympus are enriched in a suite of elements typical of high sulphidation VMS deposits, also similar to Windalah.

The lack of As-Sb, often associated with cooler parts of VMS systems, and relative enrichment of Bi, Te, and Se may indicate that outcrop at Olympus is in the `hotter' part of a Windalah-style hydrothermal system.
