Context

Director Sousa Mauad Bruno bought 3,000 common shares of Aura Minerals after selling 9,000 BDRs on Sep 15, 2026, a new Form 4 filing.

Expected impact

Minimal impact; price likely unchanged.

Evidence & confidence

The transaction size (~$85k) is trivial for a listed company and reflects portfolio rebalancing rather than a conviction signal.

Limited to Brazilian investors holding BDRs; no broader regional effect.
