A Small Explorer Next to a Giant Discovery
Could this be one of Peru’s next big gold–silver stories?
Not investment advice. Disseminated on behalf of Daura Gold Corp. (TSX-V: DGC | OTC:DGCOF).
They say location isn’t everything… but in mineral exploration, it can matter more than almost anything else.
Imagine you could stand on the edge of a discovery that’s already worth hundreds of millions to a billion dollars… and you’re about to drill your own ground 700 meters away.
That’s exactly where Daura Gold Corp. finds itself today. (TSX-V: DGC | OTC:DGCOF)
Daura is a Canadian exploration company focused on high-grade gold and silver in one of South America’s most exciting districts, Ancash, Peru and its flagship project, Antonella, sits immediately adjacent to Highlander Silver’s Bonita Project, where recent drilling has delivered thick, high-grade gold intercepts that helped propel that company’s value dramatically in recent years.
In plain language: this isn’t random ground. It’s ground that could very well share the same mineralized system that just made a massive discovery.
Why That Matters
The geology of Ancash Peru is world-class. A belt that hosts giant deposits like Antamina and the past-producing Pierina gold mine.
At Antonella, Daura isn’t just sitting on claims. Recent surface sampling has delivered very high-grade results, including standout rock chip values like:
22.6 g/t gold & 101 g/t silver
17.65 g/t gold & 348 g/t silver
16.05 g/t gold & 320 g/t silver
Additional sampling in the northern zone returned 55.83 g/t gold & 220 g/t silver and 12.33 g/t gold & 99.1 g/t silver, extending the known mineralized footprint.
These aren’t fringe numbers. In many projects, these grades alone would be headline results. Especially when they’re clearly trending toward a known major discovery next door.
Funded for Drill Targets… Now It’s Time to Test
The company recently completed an upsized financing of roughly C$7 million, giving it the capital to aggressively pursue exploration at Antonella and beyond.
That funding is critical, because what comes next is the most exciting part of this story:
Phase-1 drilling is planned for the first half of 2026.
Daura (TSX-V: DGC | OTC:DGCOF) is not stepping onto its ground blind. Extensive mapping, sampling, and structural work have already defined priority targets where veins show continuity toward the adjacent Bonita system.
Drill collars are being planned. Lab results from surface work confirm the system is mineralized at both gold and silver. And the structural corridor that hosts Bonita cuts straight through Antonella.
That’s the kind of narrative that can turn maps into models and models into drill success.
Not Just Peru, Growth in Argentina Too
Daura isn’t a one-trick pony.
The company’s second project, Cerro Bayo, is in a part of Argentina called Deseado Massif. Its forged by volcanic rocks that date back the the Jurassic age (when dinosaurs roamed the earth), and it’s another high-grade gold-silver belt known for discoveries by multiple producers. Geophysical surveys have been completed there and Phase-1 drilling is planned for early 2026, offering yet another potential news catalyst.
So while Antonella captures headlines as the neighbor to one of the hottest discoveries in the region, Cerro Bayo gives Daura a second, drill-ready target with its own merits.
The Bottom Line
Daura Gold is not a story about wishful thinking. It’s a company that has:
• Strategic ground next to a proven discovery corridor
• High-grade surface evidence of gold and silver
• Capital in the bank
• Drill plans that could unlock the next chapter
Exploration is unpredictable. Not every drill program makes a discovery. But when a project sits literally 700 meters from a billion-dollar discovery, with surface results pointing right toward that same system, it’s a story worth paying attention to.
For anyone watching gold and silver exploration in emerging districts, Daura is firing on multiple cylinders and the next phase of drilling could be its most important yet.(TSX-V: DGC | OTC:DGCOF)
