Daura Gold Corp.
Daura Gold Corp. is a Vancouver-based explorer targeting high-grade gold and silver in South America. Its flagship Antonella-Libelulas project in Peru's Ancash region covers roughly 10,600 hectares after a May 2026 expansion that staked the Libelulas 25 and Libelulas 26 claims, adding 2,000 hectares, and hosts the Antonella, Antonella North and Libelulas epithermal gold-silver vein targets -- a peak surface sample of 57.34 g/t gold has been reported at Antonella North. Antonella-Libelulas forms part of a broader Ancash land package exceeding 18,000 hectares that also includes the Tayacoto/Agustina polymetallic targets and the Yanamina project. In Argentina, Daura entered a binding letter agreement with Latin Metals Inc. to earn up to an 80% interest in the Cerro Bayo and La Flora projects in the Deseado Massif, where its first diamond drill program has been completed with results pending. The company is recorded at GRASSROOTS stage because its flagship Peruvian ground has not yet been drilled -- management has stated an intention to drill at the earliest opportunity -- and because no current mineral resource estimate exists on any of its properties. Yanamina carries a historical 206,800-ounce gold resource that predates current reporting standards and is not treated here as a compliant estimate.

Lifecycle Milestones
A relative ranking of how closely this company matches the profile of juniors that have actually been acquired — not a probability, and not a reason to buy. Acquisitions are rare: only a few dozen significant deals happen a year across a universe of thousands of juniors, so even a high score here describes a long shot. The strongest signal the underlying research identifies — whether a major already holds a JV, earn-in, or 5–19.9% strategic stake — isn't tracked yet and is absent from this score.

Insiders, Investors & Smart Money
Notable shareholders and insiders whose involvement is worth knowing about, plus what we're seeing from institutional/large-investor activity.
No producer, strategic corporate investor, or resource-specialist fund was found in the register, and no disclosed open-market insider buying turned up in the last three years. This is an honest low finding for a sub-$16M explorer, not a gap in our data.
No notable insiders tracked for this miner yet.
Reports, Presentations & Documents
Yanamina (Ancash, Peru) carries a HISTORICAL resource estimate of 206,800 oz gold, per the company's own project disclosure. It is historical -- not a current NI 43-101-compliant estimate, and not verified to current standards -- so it is recorded here only and deliberately NOT written to ouncesFound (same treatment as Velocity Minerals' Toledo estimate in batch 18). No current resource estimate exists on Antonella-Libelulas, Tayacoto/Agustina, or the Argentine Cerro Bayo/La Flora earn-in ground.
