[{"type":"text","content":" Highlights Multiple gold and silver intercepts returned from initial drilling at Cerro Bayo, with broad zones of near-surface silver mineralization encountered across multiple target areas. CBD26-001 returned 16.35 metres (m) @ 1.72 g/t gold-equivalent (AuEq), including 3.60 m @ 6.3 g/t AuEq. CBD26-005 returned 15.0 m @ 1.90 g/t AuEq and 3.60 m @ 6.08 g/t AuEq. Within CBD26-005, a high-grade silver interval returned 739 g/t Ag and 0.33 g/t Au over 1.8 m. Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 21, 2026) - Daura Gold Corp. (TSXV: DGC) (OTCQB: DGCOF) (the \"Company\" or \"Daura\") is pleased to report assay results from its phase one diamond drill program (\"Phase One\") at the Cerro Bayo project located in the prolific Deseado Massif of Santa Cruz Province, Argentina (\"Cerro Bayo\"). The 1,850-metre program comprised 18 diamond drill holes testing 10 priority targets across the 28,397-hectare property. Significant gold and silver mineralization was intersected in multiple holes during this first-pass drill campaign, including several higher-grade intervals that demonstrate the potential of the epithermal system. \"The Cerro Bayo and La Flora license areas form part of a very large hydrothermal field spanning more than 400 km² within the Deseado Massif, where multiple target areas identified by previous operators remained effectively untested by drilling,\" stated Stuart Mills, VP Exploration at Daura Gold. \"Phase One drilling successfully intersected broad zones of near-surface silver mineralization and higher-grade gold-silver intervals across multiple target areas, validating several key aspects of our geological model during Daura's preliminary drill campaign.\" Highlight Intercepts Hole CBD26-001: 16.35 m at 1.72 g/t AuEq* (0.37 g/t Au, 88.96 g/t Ag) from 28.85 m; including 3.60m at 1.43g/t gold (Au) and 321.7 g/t Ag (6.3 g/t AuEq) from 36.05 m. Hole CBD26-005: 15.00 m at 1.90 g/t AuEq* (0.07 g/t Au, 120.8 g/t Ag) from 58.7 m; including 2.00m at 0.11 g/t Au and 427.4 g/t Ag (6.6 g/t AuEq) from 63.70 m, and 1.70m at 0.16 g/t Au and 120.72 g/t Ag (2.0 g/t AuEq) from 68.30 m. 3.60 m at 6.08 g/t AuEq* (0.18 g/t Au, 389.88 g/t Ag) from 86.4 m, including 1.80m at 0.33 g/t Au and 739.53 g/t Ag (11.53 g/t AuEq) from 86.40 m. Hole CBD26-012: 11.95m at 2.1 g/t AuEq (2.0 g/t Au, 6.8 g/t Ag) from 11.45 m, includin...
