It's an MDA not a DA (or DH if you prefer). And, the 1 mile is for Approach Categories A and B only. The HAA of an MDA is geometrically permissive for A and B.
Also, these are circle-to-land-only minimums (that's why it's VOR-A, not VOR Rwy 05), which have their own set of traps for the unwary. And, the final approach course radial is 31 degrees different than the runway center-line.
All in all, quite the
non-precision IAP.
