April 2, 2025

Vancouver, British Columbia — (April 2, 2025) – Daura Gold Corp. (formerly Daura Capital Corp.) (TSXV:DGC) (the “Company” or “Daura”) is pleased to announce it has signed an agreement with the District Municipality of Pampas Grande, located in the Ancash Department, 28 km south of the Company’s flagship Antonella project as well as the San Luis gold project. The Company is also pleased to announce the commencement of extensive geological mapping and rock sampling activities in the Pampas 1 and 2 areas, aimed at assessing and enhancing the understanding of the mineralization and economic potential within these key exploration sites. 


Pampas 1 and 2 Exploration Program


Daura’s Pampas 1 and 2 project consists of 1200 hectares of prospective land characterized by pyroclastic ash flow deposits and andesitic lava flows from the Calipuy Group (Cenozoic volcanic). Recognizing the potential for valuable mineral deposits, Daura is undertaking geological mapping at a scale of 1:10,000 to delineate the area's geology and evaluate its economic prospects. Rock sampling utilizing the rock chip technique will be conducted in targeted areas of interest, with subsequent analysis performed using inductively coupled plasma (ICP) methods to ensure low detection limits. This mapping and sampling program will provide crucial insights into the economic potential of the Pampas 1 and 2 concessions.


The area is in a highly prospective zone where several national and international mining companies have interest, including Barrick and JX Nippon Mining & Metals. Pampas 1 and 2 are within a 6 kms radius of Barrick’s mining claims and there is a history of artisanal mining in the region.


Luis Saenz, CEO of Daura, stated: “Today marks a significant milestone for our company as we have officially signed a community agreement that reflects our commitment to responsible exploration and collaboration. This partnership not only strengthens our ties with the community but also ensures that we engage transparently and respectfully with those affected by our activities. Daura remains committed to advancing its exploration initiatives and maximizes the potential of its mineral assets. These mapping and sampling endeavors at Pampas 1 and 2 are pivotal steps in the company’s strategy to enhance its resource base and deliver value to stakeholders. We have a large land package in an established region with many mid-tier and large cap mining companies including Barrick, Vale and Highlander Silver who are all currently active in the area. As we start our mapping and sampling programs, we look forward to working closely with our neighbours."

(TSXV: DGC , OTCQB: DGCOF ) (the “Company” or “Daura” ) is pleased to provide an update on its Phase One diamond drilling program at the Cerro Bayo Gold-Silver Project ("Cerro Bayo" or the "Project"), located in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. Cerro Bayo is located in Argentina's premier gold-silver district, the Deseado Massif, which hosts major mines like Newmont's Cerro Negro and Hochschild's San Jose. Daura has completed 14 holes across 10 drill targets and assays are pending. The Company has also commenced drilling on 3 step-back holes at the Ingrid, Elena and Eugenia target areas. The results from the first 14 holes are pending and the Company will publish the data when the assays are received in the next 4-6 weeks. Stuart Mills, VP of Exploration for Daura, commented, "We are pleased with the progress of our drilling program so far, having completed 14 holes across 10 targets. Stepping back from holes 5, 12 & 14 is expected to provide greater clarity on the broader system and help guide our next phase of drilling. We look forward to reporting results as they become available. In parallel, Geomorphic's AI platform continues to enhance our targeting by optimizing drill placement through real-time data integration and vectoring." The Company is using Geomorphic AI's proprietary artificial intelligence (AI)-driven geoscience platform. Geomorphic provides remote geological and data science support for Daura's ongoing drill program at Cerro Bayo, including geochemical baseline analysis, pathfinder modelling, spatial vectoring, target ranking, and real-time drill result integration. The work is powered by proprietary AI geology agents that streamline multi-element statistics, anomaly detection, and target scoring. As new assay data arrives, the agents cross-validate results against the surface geochemistry model, flag discrepancies, and update targeting recommendations. Geomorphic has also built custom field tooling, including assay bulletins, and a scored blind-target catalog to help Daura prioritize drill collar placements. The continuous feedback loop between field results and model refinement sharpens targeting with every hole drilled.
