Fury Announces 2025 Exploration Plans at Committee Bay
Fury Announces 2025 Exploration Plans at Committee Bay
TORONTO, June 03, 2025 -- Fury Gold Mines Limited (TSX and NYSE American: FURY) (“Fury” or the “Company”) is
pleased to provide an update on exploration plans for the Committee Bay project, located in the eastern Kitikmeot region of
Nunavut, Canada. The 2025 Committee Bay exploration program will commence in early July 2025 and will comprise 7 – 10
diamond drill holes totaling approximately 5,000 metres (m).
Drilling will have three primary goals:
1. Expansion of the Three Bluffs Shear Zone target first identified in 2021 where drill hole 21TB152 intercepted three
discrete zones of high-grade gold mineralization over a 30 m drill width, including 10.0 m of 13.93 g/t gold, 3.0 m of
18.67 g/t gold and 1.0 m of 23.2 g/t gold in a 120 m step-out from the defined mineral resource (see news release dated
December 1, 2021);
2. Testing regional shear zones along the southern contact of the 8 kilometre (km) long Raven shear zone where samples
of up to 32.90 g/t gold have been returned from an undrilled outcrop (see news release dated February 16, 2022);
3. Testing regional shear zones at Burro West where a 300 by 300 m gold in till anomaly was identified in 2024 ( see news
release date October 24, 2024).
“Following the strategic investment by Agnico Eagle last week, we are pleased to announce our return to the Committee Bay
project in Nunavut this summer,” commented Tim Clark, CEO of Fury. “The project has historically attracted strong investor
interest due to previous high-grade gold discoveries and its location within a 300-kilometre greenstone belt. Our upcoming
program aims to test new geological assumptions based on recent exploration work, and we look forward to unlocking further
value as our exploration progresses.”
2025 Exploration Program
The Committee Bay project spans the entire 300 km long Committee Bay Greenstone belt in the eastern Kitikmeot region of
Nunavut. The land package comprises a series of mineral claims and leases covering approximately 250,000 hectares,
encompassing the Three Bluffs Gold deposit, more than five advanced gold targets, and several significant gold anomalies. The
high-grade Three Bluffs Gold deposit is located centrally within the project and is estimated to contain 524,000 oz. of gold at
7.85 g/t gold in the indicated mineral resource category and 720,000 oz. of gold at 7.64 g/t gold in the inferred mineral
resource category (see Committee Bay NI43-101 report “Technical Report on the Committee Bay Project, Nunavut Territory,
Canada” dated September 11, 2023). Drilling in 2021 at Three Bluffs intercepted 3 zones of mineralization: 13.93 g/t gold over
10 m; 18.67 g/t gold over 3 m; and 23.2 g/t gold over 1 m. The first two noted intercepts occur outside of the main iron
formation in sheared metasediments with gold occurring at the apexes of the crenulations. The shear hosted mineralization
runs sub-parallel to the main iron formation (Figure 1) and has not been a focus of exploration in the past. The 2021 intercept
is 250 m below surface and remains open up dip, down dip, as well as along strike in both directions. Drilling in 2025 will
target five to six 100 – 200 m step-outs from the 2021 intercept for a total of approximately 2,250 m (Figure 2).

-152 intersection is open as depicted by the three arrows with potential to significantly expand the mineral resource.
The Raven prospect is located in the southwest third of the Committee Bay gold belt, approximately 50 km west of the Three
Bluffs deposit. Drilling will target a previously undrilled gold-bearing outcrop where results from seven samples collected to date
average 16.12 g/t gold at Raven South with three to four drill holes totaling approximately 2,000 m (Figure 3). This prospect lies
along the southern boundary of an 8 km long east – west oriented shear zone where gold mineralization has been identified
over a 1.4 km footprint.

identified high-grade gold mineralization is located along the southern boundary of the shear zone.
Infill till sampling during 2024 at the Burro West target has identified a robust multi-point +90 th percentile approximately 300 x
300 m gold in till anomaly (Figure 4). The Burro West anomaly is spatially associated with a break in the regional magnetics
data, which is interpreted as a sheared contact between mafic volcanics and ultramafic lithologies. Drilling during 2025 will
comprise two to three drill holes for approximately 750 m.

“Recent targeting and exploration at Committee Bay has brought to light the potential for regional-scale shear zones to host
significant gold mineralization. Previous exploration campaigns have been largely focused on silicified and sulphidized iron
formations with success. The new focus on shear zone hosted gold mineralization is simply the next evolutionary step in
targeting at Committee Bay and has reinvigorated the prospectivity of the entire 300 km long belt,” stated Bryan Atkinson,
SVP Exploration for Fury.
