## Exhibit 99.1

**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**Aura Declares Dividend of US$0.66 Per Share and US$0.22 Per BDR Based on Q4 2025 Results, Resulting in a Dividend Yield of 6.2%ˆ in the LTM**

ROAD TOWN, British Virgin Islands, Feb. 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- **Aura Minerals Inc. (Nasdaq: AUGO) (B3: AURA33) ("Aura" or the "Company")** announced today that the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") has declared and approved the payment of a dividend (the "Dividend") of US$0.66 per common share (approximately US$55.1<sup>2</sup> million in total). This payment is above the minimum foreseen in the Company's Dividend Policy (the "Dividend Policy"). Under the Dividend Policy, the Company may determine quarterly cash dividends in an aggregate amount equal to 20% of its reported Adjusted EBITDA<sup>3</sup> for the relevant three months, less sustaining capital expenditures and exploration capital expenditures for the same period.

The Dividend will be paid in US dollars on March 18, 2026, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March,11 2025 ("Record Date").

Holders of the Company's Brazilian Depositary Receipts as of Record Date will receive US$0.22 per BDR (since 1 Aura share is equivalent to 3 BDRs) and are expected to receive payment on or around March 26, 2026, and will receive the Brazilian Reais equivalent of the Dividend, based on a market exchange rate to be disclosed in a future Press Release, in advance of its payment date.

As an example, BDR`s holders will receive:

· Announced Dividend on February 26, 2026: USD 0.22 per BDR

· Exchange Rate, based on closing rate as of February 25, 2026, for USD to Brazilian Reais (BRL): BRL 5.1434 per USD, Dividends Payable to Company BDR Holders would be BRL 1.131548 per BDR. This value will change according to the exchange rate on the day previous to the payment day

· Record Date for Dividend Rights: March 11, 2026

· Payment Date: On or around March 26, 2026

The Dividend is not subject to withholding taxes at the time of payment by the Company.

Rodrigo Barbosa, President & CEO commented, "In Q4 we delivered record-high production at stable costs, supported by higher gold prices, resulting in record EBITDA. We are pleased to announce a dividend of US$0.66 per share — well above our Dividend Policy minimum. This brings our trailing 12-month dividend and buyback yield to 6.2%, positioning Aura once again among the world's leading gold miners for total shareholder returns. During the quarter and in recent months we achieved several key milestones: (i) Declared commercial production at Borborema; (ii) Completed the MSG acquisition; (iii) Secured the early-works license for Era Dorada; (iv) Advanced the Matupá project and (v) Signed the road-relocation agreement at Borborema. These accomplishments are concrete proof that we are executing our strategy: develop high-return greenfield projects to grow production above 600 koz GEO per year, expand resources and reserves, pursue disciplined M&A, and deliver meaningful dividends to shareholders. And there is much more ahead."

Known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond the Company's ability to predict or control, could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Specific reference is made to the most recent 20 F on file with certain Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities for a discussion of some of the factors underlying forward-looking statements, which include, without limitation, the ability of the Company to achieve its short-term and longer-term outlook and the anticipated timing and results thereof, the ability to lower costs and increase production, the ability of the Company to successfully achieve business objectives, copper and gold or certain other commodity price volatility, changes in debt and equity markets, the uncertainties involved in interpreting geological data, increases in costs, environmental compliance and changes in environmental legislation and regulation, interest rate and exchange rate fluctuations, general economic conditions and other risks involved in the mineral exploration and development industry. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect the forward-looking statements.

All forward-looking statements herein are qualified by this cautionary statement. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information or future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. If the Company does update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that it will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.

<sup>1</sup> Including shares and BDR buybacks. We calculate dividend yield as the announced dividend per share divided by the NASDAQ share price in US$ on the announcement date (dividend yield = dividend per share / share price at announcement date). The buyback yield is calculated as the total value of shares repurchased in the period divided by the average market capitalization on a given year in each case using the NASDAQ share price (buyback yield = buybacks reported / average market capitalization for a given year). The dividend yield + buyback yield is the sum of the dividend yield and the buyback yield for the reporting period

<sup>2</sup> As of February 25, 2026, the Company had 83,534,506 common shares issued and outstanding.
