# Daura Gold Commences Phase II Drill Program at Cerro Bayo & La Flora in Argentina Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/daura-gold-commences-phase-ii-drill-program-at-cerro-bayo-la-flora-in-argentina--8508161d-dfbd-4476-978d-7840226b0880 Original source: https://www.juniorminingnetwork.com/junior-miner-news/press-releases/3400-tsx-venture/dgc/212588-daura-gold-commences-phase-ii-drill-program-at-cerro-bayo-la-flora-in-argentina.html Publisher: jmn Original announcement: 2026-10-08T21:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: 2026-10-08T12:20:56.709Z Atlas analysis updated: 2026-10-08T12:20:56.709Z - Company: Daura Gold Corp. - Ticker: DGC - Exchange: TSXV - Region: Santa Cruz Province, Argentina - Primary commodity: Gold - Secondary commodities: Silver - Document categories: Drill results, Other - Extracted: 2026-10-08 12:20:57 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.40 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Daura Gold has commenced its 20-hole, 1,600-metre Phase II drill program across the Cerro Bayo and La Flora projects in Argentina. The program includes the first drill testing of the La Flora high-grade vein array and follow-up drilling at the Elena and Ingrid targets at Cerro Bayo. Reasoning: The announcement marks the start of a new drilling phase, but the technical data provided consists of historical/Phase I results used for context rather than new assay results. - Positive factor: Commencement of Phase II drilling program - Positive factor: High-grade surface sampling at La Flora - Positive factor: Step-out drilling targeting continuity of silver-gold zones - Negative factor: No new assays reported in this release; results are restatements of Phase I - Negative factor: True widths not disclosed Facts used in scoring: 8 ## Classification and evidence **Stale Data Re-release** Polarity: negative Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty. Why it applies: The technical results provided are restatements of Phase I drilling from May 2026, not new assay results. Evidence · text > Phase I drill results were reported by the Company on May 21, 2026 **Apparent Width Only** Polarity: negative Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness. Why it applies: The document explicitly states that reported intervals are downhole lengths and true widths are not known. Evidence · text > reported intervals are downhole lengths and true widths are not known ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 8. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (8) ### CBD26-012 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/daura-gold-commences-phase-ii-drill-program-at-cerro-bayo-la-flora-in-argentina--8508161d-dfbd-4476-978d-7840226b0880#fact-drill-facts-0) Cerro Bayo · gold Historical result Needs review: historical\_restatement #### Identity - Hole ID: CBD26-012 - Project: Cerro Bayo - Commodity: gold - Region: argentina - Reported Region: argentina - Ticker: DGC #### Geometry - Grade: 2 - Grade Unit: g/t - Intercept: 11.95 m - From: 11.45 m - To: 23.4 m - Intercept Depth: 11.45 m #### Classification - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: CBD26-012:11.45-23.4 #### QA/QC - QP Signed: Yes - QA/QC Methods: standards #### Review - Needs Review: Yes - Review Reason: historical\_restatement - Interp.

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.
