Daura Gold Announces the Discovery of New High-Grade Epithermal Silver & Gold Vein to the Southwest of Its Antonella Project
Daura Gold Announces the Discovery of New
High-Grade Epithermal Silver & Gold Vein to
the Southwest of Its Antonella Project
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 17, 2025) -
Daura Gold Corp. (TSXV:
DGC) (the "Company" or "Daura")
is pleased to announce the identification of a new mineralized
zone and exposed vein approximately 1,500 meters to the southwest of the main Antonella Project zone
(
"Antonella" or the "Project"
), located in the Ancash Department of Peru.
Recent fieldwork has
confirmed the presence of high-grade silver (Ag) and gold (Au) mineralization in the southwestern area,
associated with a well-defined vein system and infill structures, trending NW-SE towards Highlander
Silver's Bonita Project.
Antonella is located within a prolific metallogenic belt that hosts world-class deposits such as Antamina
and Barrick's past-producing Pierina gold mine.
The previously identified Esperanza and Romin vein
systems at Antonella, host broad, high-grade drill intercepts from historical drilling and recently returned
high-grade surface samples including:
22.6 g/t Au & 101 g/t Ag
,
17.65 g/t Au & 348 g/t Ag, 17.65 g/t
Au & 348 g/t Ag
and
5.50 g/t Au & 620 g/t Ag
(see the Company's news release from September 9,
2025).
Daura has discovered a new mineralized, high-grade silver and gold vein to the southwest
trending SE.
Highlights of the New Mineralized Vein System Discovered at Antonella:
In the southwest sector of Antonella, an epithermal vein, exposed for 30 meters at surface, trending SE
towards Highlander's Bonita Project, exposed at surface yielded high grade silver samples, taken 5
meters apart, including:
379 g/t Ag and 0.38 g/t Au
; and
346 g/t Ag and 0.46 g/t Au
The vein also displayed significant lead values (up to 1.44% Pb), associated with anomalous gold (0.38-
0.47 g/t Au) and copper (1174-1240 g/t Cu).
The Daura team used a portable XRF (X-ray fluorescence)
analyzer in the new SW zone, where readings indicate the presence of silver and gold mineralization.
The XRF readings should not be considered a substitute for certified assay results, but the Company
plans to follow up the new SW zone with more extensive surface sampling.
Daura's President, Mark Sumner, commented: "
Daura's mapping and sampling program has returned
some very high-grade results within Antonella's main zone, reinforcing the Company's view that
Antonella is part of a continuous mineralized vein system with the Bonita project to the SE.
The
identification of a new mineralized vein system to the southwest of Antonella gives the Company
another exciting target to explore within the project area."

In the southwestern zone of the Project, silver (Ag), lead (Pb), gold (Au), and copper (Cu) mineralization
has been identified within fracture-fill material. The structure ranges from 0.15 to 0.30 meters in
thickness and outcrops along approximately 30 meters. This mineralization trends NW-SE, consistent
with the Bonita-Antonella system, highlighting the potential for extension toward the southern portion of
the Bonita Project. In addition, Daura's upcoming geophysical survey will help determine the continuity of
these structures currently covered by Quaternary material.
Next Steps
Daura will continue geological mapping and sampling across the Antonella concessions, including
northern (Estrella 02-19) and southern (Estrella 03-19) blocks. Geophysical surveys using drone-
assisted magnetometry are planned to further define structures associated with mineralization. The
results will guide drill target definition for upcoming exploration programs.
