Mild pro-p groups and the Koszulity conjectures

Let $p$ be a prime, and $\mathbb{F}_p$ the field with $p$ elements. We prove that if $G$ is a mild pro-$p$ group with quadratic $\mathbb{F}_p$-cohomology algebra $H^\bullet(G,\mathbb{F}_p)$, then the algebras $H^\bullet(G,\mathbb{F}_p)$ and $\mathrm{gr}\mathbb{F}_p[\![G]\!]$ - the latter being induced by the quotients of consecutive terms of the $p$-Zassenhaus filtration of $G$ - are both Koszul, and they are quadratically dual to each other. Consequently, if the maximal pro-$p$ Galois group of a field is mild, then Positselski's and Weigel's Koszulity conjectures hold true for such a field.
