Fury Drills 5.75 g/t Gold over 4 Metres at the Hinge Target:
Extending Mineralization by Nearly 25% to the West at Eau
Claire
Vancouver, Canada – October 24, 2022 – Fury Gold Mines Limited (TSX: FURY, NYSE
American: FURY) (“Fury” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide results for six core drill holes at
the Eau Claire project located in the Eeyou Istchee Territory in the James Bay region of Quebec. Drilling
to date has tested five target areas at the Eau Claire deposit , significantly expanding the mineralized
footprint (Figure 1). Drill holes 22EC-049 and 22EC-055 currently represent the western most drill holes
and have extended gold mineralization a further 125 metres (m) from the multiple high-grade zones of
gold mineralization from drill hole 22EC-048 (see news release dated August 3, 2022) within the Hinge
Target. Drill hole 22EC -055 intercepted eight zones of mineralization across a drilled width of 290m,
including 4.0m of 5.75 g/t gold, 1.0m of 9.81 g/t gold and 3.0m of 1.93 g/t gold and drill hole 22EC-049
intercepted six zones of gold mineralization across 350m drilled wid th including 1.0m of 21.40 g/t gold
and 4.50m of 1.09 g/t gold (Figures 1 and 2) . The multiple stacked zones of gold mineralization
encountered at the Hinge Target clearly demonstrate that the Eau Claire gold resource remains open to
the west and has the potential to be expanded significantly with approximately a 25% increase to the
mineralized footprint realized to date.
“The Hinge Target continues to expand gold mineralization at the Eau Claire deposit which remains open
for considerable expansion,” commented Tim Clark, CEO of Fury. “We are looking forward to the
remaining 14 holes from the Percival Target, the North Limb, the eastern extension, the Gap Zone, and
the Hinge Target, which are pending assay and expected prior to year-end. Although assay times have
been slow across the industry, the Company is in a strong financial position with over C$12.5m in our
treasury, 50% of drill results pending from this summer’s drill program, and extensive surface exploration
results from across the Eau Claire land position.”
Western Hinge Target
Fury’s recognition of the importance of the fold g eometry at the Hinge Target paired with the newly
recognized stratigraphic control to the Eau Claire gold mineralization has led to an overall increase of
455m or approximately 25% to the overall mineralized footprint of the deposit (Figure 1). Drill holes
22EC-054 and 22EC-055 were designed to further target the apex of the fold that was first identified in
drill hole 22EC -048, where four zones of high grade and multiple zones of broad widths at moderate
grade were intercepted, including 3.50m of 4.79 g/t gold, 1.00m of 14.19 g/t gol d, 3.50m of 5.86 g/t
gold, 1.00m of 20.6 g/t gold and 17.50m of 1.29 g/t Au (see news release dated August 3, 2022). Both
holes intercepted multiple zones of gold mineralization with drill hole 22EC-055 successfully targeting the
apex of the fold , where the strong alteration and higher vein density are closely associated with the
highest fluid flow, concentrated by the Hinge Target geometry (Figure 2). These results have further
extended the shallow 850 zone and the deeper 450 zone of mineralization by 450 meters with both zones
remaining open to the west.

North Limb Target
The entire Eau Claire gold deposit is currently known to be hosted in the southern limb of an anticline
where east-west oriented shearing intercepts favourable stratigraphy. The north limb of the anticline,
where parallel shear zones crosscut the same favorable volcanic stratigraphy hosting the Eau Claire
deposit, remained mostly unexplored. In 2012, a single drill hole through a shallow portion of the north
limb intercepted a 40m wide zone of alteration and quartz tourmaline veining which yielded 2m of 8.45
g/t gold. Fury recently completed three drill holes into the north limb target (22EC-050; 22EC-051 and
22EC-052). Drill hole 22EC-050 targeted a 200m down dip extension of the 2012 drill intercept. The hole
intercepted a 6m wide zone of 0.212 g/t gold. The multi-element geochemistry from the three drill holes
indicates the north limb dips shallower than initially interpreted which led the 2022 holes to be collared
within the prospective volcanic stratigraphy, thus limiting the effectiveness of the drilling. Fury’s technical
team will use the data from the limited 2022 North Limb drilling to refine the geological model to target
further drilling. The North Limb target remains a high-priority target as the Company believes it has the
potential to host a significant mineralized body.
Additional Targets
Gap Zone (Figure 1):
• The recognition of the stratigraphic controls on the Eau Claire resource has opened up the
westerly continuation of the 450 zone , historically referred to as the “Gap” Zone , as a highly
prospective target;
www.furygoldmines.com
• Historical drilling outside of the defined resource intercepted gold mineralization hosted in quartz
tourmaline veining (preferred horizon) including 0.5m of 14.23 g/t gold, and 0.5m of 9.99 g/t
gold;
• Fury completed three drill holes targeting the Gap Zone, all of which have intercepted zones of
alteration and/or quartz tourmaline veining. Results are pending.
“We have now stepped out over 450m from the defined Eau Claire Resource and have yet to find the
limits of the mineralized system. The similarities of the Hinge Target and the defined Eau Claire resource
are encouraging and indicate that further drilling may potentially lead to a substantial increase in defined
gold ounce resources. The current 45 0m extension of the mineralized footprint to the west, which
remains open, has validated our i nterpretation and targeting at Eau Claire , as we analyze and target
potential additional drilling along this compelling target,” stated Bryan Atkinson, SVP, Exploration of Fury.
Currently, there is one completed hole pending assay results from the Hinge Target, three pending from
the Gap Zone, two from the eastern extension and eight from Percival. The Company anticipates results
from these holes to be released as received over the coming months.

Sampling and Assaying Disclosure
Analytical samples for the Drill Program were taken by sawing HQ diameter core into equal halves on
site with one half sent to ALS Chemex in Val D’or, Quebec, Canada for preparation and analysis. All
samples were assayed using a 50 g nominal weight fire assay with inductively coupled plasma – atomic
emission spectrometry finish (Au -ICP22) and multi -element four acid digest ICP -AES/ICP-MS method
(ME-MS61). Where Au-ICP22 results were greater than 0.5 ppm Au the assay was repeated with a 50 g
nominal weight fire assay with atomic absorption finish (Au-AA24). Samples containing more than 5 ppm
by Au-AA24 were re-assayed with 50 g nominal weight fire assay with gravimetric finish (Au- GRA22).
QA/QC programs using internal standard samples, field and lab duplicates and blanks indicate good
overall accuracy and precision.
