February 12, 2026 – Vancouver, British Columbia – Daura Gold Corp. (TSXV:DGC) (the “Company” or “Daura” ) is pleased to announce the appointment of Martin Zegarra as Exploration Manager. Mr. Zegarra is a licensed Professional Geologist with over 15 years of experience in mineral exploration, resource evaluation, and the execution of drilling programs across a range of deposit types, including epithermal, porphyry, IOCG, skarn, and vein-hosted systems. He brings strong technical expertise in geological mapping, quality assurance and quality control, logging, and integrated exploration targeting. Mr. Zegarra has extensive experience in Peru’s Ancash region, having played a key role at Silver Standard Peru (“SSR”), where he contributed to detailed geological mapping at the San Luis Project and participated in the first drilling campaign at the Bonita Project. His work has provided him with a strong understanding of the structural controls and mineralization styles in the district around Daura’s flagship project, Antonella. Previously, Mr. Zegarra has held senior exploration roles with several recognized mining and exploration companies, including MMG Limited, Minsur S.A., Thunderbird Resources Limited (formerly, Valor Resources Limited), and Dorato Resources Inc., where he was responsible for planning and executing large-scale exploration programs and leading multidisciplinary technical teams. “We are very pleased to appoint Martin as Daura’s Exploration Manager. He brings first-hand experience from SSR’s initial drilling campaigns at the neighboring Bonita project (acquired by Highlander Silver in 2023) and work along the same structural trend adjacent to Antonella,” said Mark Sumner, CEO of Daura Gold Corp. “His district knowledge and familiarity with the regional geology position him ideally to help Daura advance through upcoming exploration programs at Antonella, as well as our other exciting projects.”
February 4, 2026
February 4, 2026 – Vancouver, British Columbia – Daura Gold Corp. (TSXV:DGC) (the “Company” or “Daura” ) is pleased to announce further high-grade surface sampling results from the Company's flagship Antonella Project ("Antonella" or the "Project") and the previously announced vein discovery approximately 1km north of the Antonella main zone, Antonella North, in Ancash, Peru. Antonella is adjacent to Highlander Silver Corp's Bonita Project, located in a prolific metallogenic belt hosting significant deposits such as Antamina and Barrick's past producing Pierina gold mine. The Project's vein system is hosted in Tertiary volcanic rocks of the Calipuy Group and controlled by NW-SE trending faults, with silicification and argillic alteration halos up to 40 meters wide. The Antonella North vein system is a previously undescribed, separate vein array adjacent and parallel to Antonella. "Mapping and sampling at Antonella and Antonella North continues to deliver high grade assays, expanding the footprint of the project at surface," said Mark Sumner, CEO of Daura. "We will continue working to establish the critical foundations of community engagement, regulatory approvals and exploration-driven knowledge to drive momentum for our flagship project." Sampling Highlights: 13 rock chip samples were collected from the Antonella main zone. Standout samples from Antonella main zone: 22.84 g/t Au & 102 g/t Ag. 7.83 g/t Au & 57.1 g/t Ag; and 1.26 g/t Au & 24.8 g/t Ag. 11 rock chip samples were collected from Antonella North, approximately 1km north of the Antonella main zone. Standout samples from Antonella North: 7.98 g/t Au & 189 g/t Ag; and 3.95 g/t Au & 110 g/t Ag. Figure 1(below) shows the sampling results with respect to previous sampling at Antonella North, together with highlighted sampling from Antonella main zone.

January 20, 2026 – Vancouver, British Columbia – Daura Gold Corp. (TSXV:DGC) (the “Company” or “Daura” ) is pleased to announce the successful completion of 27 line-kilometers of Induced Polarization (IP) profiling at the Cerro Bayo Gold–Silver Project (“Cerro Bayo” or the “Project”), located in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. The completed IP program provides a robust geophysical framework that will be used to define and prioritize drill targets for the Company’s planned Phase 1 drilling program totaling approximately 1,500 meters. Key Project Highlights Include: Completion of seven IP profiles across the project for an aggregated 27 line-kilometers of pole-dipole survey The 7 profiles were sited over previously identified drill target areas to define targets for the Phase 1 drill program, slated to begin in mid-February The IP responses aided in the delineation of structurally controlled zones interpreted to represent silicified veins and mineralizing conduits Mark Sumner, CEO of Daura Gold commented: “The completion of seven Pole–Dipole IP survey lines marks an important milestone for Daura, providing valuable insight into the geometry and extent of potential mineralization across 15 priority targets within both our northern and southern target areas. The results have clearly delineated structurally controlled zones, which we interpret as potential mineralizing conduits and feeder structures. This data will play a key role in refining and prioritizing drill targets ahead of our planned Phase 1 drill program.” Cerro Bayo: Electrical Induced Polarization (IP) Surveys and Preparation for Drilling: A Pole–Dipole IP profiling program has been completed, consisting of four lines in the southeastern area and three additional, shorter lines in the northwestern area, for a total of approximately 27 line-kilometers. 15 drill targets were generated from the integration of previous geochemical sampling and a Previous Gradient Array IP survey covering the southern area of the license area. A Phase 1 program of 22 diamond drill holes for approximately 1,500m aims to test the 15 targets for approximately 1,500m diamond drilling. In the northern target area, three IP profile lines were completed and 8 drill targets have been identified, of which 3 targets will be tested with 8 diamond drill holes for 500m. In the southern area 7 drill targets will be tested with 14 drill holes for 1,000m of diamond drilling.
