# Daura Gold Announces Additional High-Grade Surface Sampling Results from Antonella Main Zone & Antonella North: 22.84 g/t Au & 102 g/t Ag \(Main Zone\) & 7.98 g/t Au & 189 g/t Ag \(North\) Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/daura-gold-announces-additional-high-grade-surface-sampling-results-from-antonel--60b4eb93-2c5d-45b8-ac68-320fcaf80e9f Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/DGC/news/6650815329406685/daura-gold-announces-additional-high-grade-surface-sampling-results-from-antonel Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2026-02-04T13:30:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Daura Gold Corp. - Ticker: DGC - Exchange: TSX - Region: Ancash, Peru - Primary commodity: Gold - Secondary commodities: Silver - Document categories: Drill results - Extracted: 2026-09-17 19:19:54 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.80 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Daura Gold has reported high-grade surface grab samples from the Antonella Project in Peru, highlighted by an intercept of 22.84 g/t Au and 102 g/t Ag in the Main Zone. The results also demonstrate mineralization at the newly identified Antonella North vein array, with standout samples of 7.98 g/t Au and 189 g/t Ag. Reasoning: The release reports high-grade gold and silver surface samples that expand the known footprint of the Antonella project, including a new vein array at Antonella North. - Positive factor: High-grade gold and silver surface intercepts - Positive factor: Expansion of mineralized footprint at Antonella North - Positive factor: QA/QC protocols disclosed including CRM and duplicates - Positive factor: Proximity to major deposits like Antamina and Pierina - Negative factor: Surface grab samples are inherently selective and may overstate continuity - Negative factor: Community permission required for further ground work Facts used in scoring: 4 ## Classification and evidence **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: 22.84 g/t Au is exceptionally high for an epithermal/vein system. Evidence · text > 22.84 g/t Au & 102 g/t Ag **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Sampling at Antonella North expands the project footprint 1km north of the main zone. Evidence · text > expanding the footprint of the project at surface **QA/QC Disclosed** Polarity: positive Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\). Why it applies: Release details lab \(Actlabs\), methods \(Fire Assay, ICP-OES\), and QA/QC materials \(blanks, standards, duplicates\). Evidence · text > The internal QA/QC program included the submission of 10% quality control materials including field duplicates, blanks and Certified Reference Material \(CRM\) standards. **Nearology Play** Polarity: neutral Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results. Why it applies: Project is adjacent to Bonita Project and near Antamina and Pierina. Evidence · text > 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. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 4.

Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
