Due to strong investor interest, Daura Gold Corp. is upsizing its previously announced non-brokered private placement.

The company will offer up to 26 million units by way of a non-brokered private placement at a price of 25 cents per unit for gross proceeds of up to $6.5-million. Each unit will consist of one common share of the company and one-half of one share purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to acquire an additional common share of the company at a price of 37.5 cents for a period of 24 months following closing of the offering.

The company expects to utilize the proceeds of the offering for advancement of its exploration land package in the Ancash department of Peru, including the company's flagship Antonella project and the Yanamina project 40 kilometres north of Antonella, and for general working capital purposes.

Daura's president, Mark Sumner, commented: "We are very encouraged by the strong demand for this financing, which has exceeded $6.5-million. This support will allow Daura to accelerate its plans and expand the scope of our upcoming work programs."

In connection with completion of the offering, the company will pay finders' fees to eligible third parties which have introduced subscribers to the offering. All securities issued in connection with the offering will be subject to restrictions on resale for a period of four months and one day in accordance with applicable securities laws.
