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.
