Fury Gold Mines Expands Drilling at Sakami Gold Project
Toronto, June 16, 2025 - Fury Gold Mines Limited (TSX and NYSE American: FURY) is thrilled to announce that it has finalized a diverse set of drill targets at the Sakami gold project. This project, located in a highly prospective region, sets the stage for exciting developments in the search for gold. The initial phase of the drilling campaign will commence shortly, expected to start later this month, featuring an extensive plan of approximately 3,000 to 5,000 meters of drilling.
Drilling Objectives and Targets
The first phase aims to cover three major priorities that promise to enrich Fury's understanding of the gold potential at Sakami:
- Discovery efforts along a 23-kilometer gold-bearing structural corridor at the Juliette target.
- Confirmation of historical mineralized intercepts at La Pointe and La Pointe Extension targets.
- Step-out drilling aimed at extending the high-grade corridor identified at the La Pointe Extension.
In previous drilling activities, the Sakami project has shown promising gold mineralization across extensive widths, with notable intercepts including 7.79 g/t gold over 3.0 meters from drill hole PT21-182. Other highlights include 8.70 g/t over 7.0 meters from PT21-187 and 4.28 g/t over 4.5 meters from drill hole PT17-102. These significant finds underscore the project's potential as one of the key focus areas for Fury.
CEO Insights on the Sakami Project
Tim Clark, CEO of Fury Gold Mines, expressed his enthusiasm regarding the upcoming drilling initiative, stating, “We are excited to commence drilling at the Sakami project this month following our successful acquisition of Quebec Precious Metals. We see exceptional discovery potential here and believe that it holds significant promise for creating value for our stakeholders.”
Furthermore, Bryan Atkinson, SVP Exploration of Fury, added, “The newly acquired Sakami project presents a remarkable opportunity for new discoveries, building on the gold mineralization identified thus far. The targeting strategy utilizes all available data to strengthen our initiatives, focusing on everything from regional exploration to confirming and extending existing mineralization.”
Understanding the Sakami Project's Geography
The Sakami project encompasses approximately 14,250 hectares and is strategically positioned 30 kilometers east of a major transportation route. It spans a structural corridor that is geologically significant, marking the intersection of two different geological subprovinces. Historical discoveries of gold mineralization have been identified across over 23 kilometers, predominantly at the base of a sulphide-rich horizon along significant shearing zones.
Rich Gold Mineralization Targets
At both La Pointe and La Pointe Extension, the previously identified mineralization remains open for further exploration both at depth and along strike. A significant area of focus will be the undrilled Juliette target, located south of the La Pointe Extension. This target shares a similar geophysical signature with known gold-rich areas, presenting a promising opportunity for discovering further gold mineralization along the established gold-bearing structure.
Éléonore South Project Update
Another exciting aspect of Fury’s operations is the Éléonore South project, which is situated in a geologically favorable area known for prolific gold mineralization. Surrounding properties like the Éléonore Mine and the Cheechoo Deposit amplify the project's appeal, as two distinct styles of mineralization have been uncovered. Notably, one style is characterized by quartz veins within sedimentary rocks akin to what has been observed at the renowned Éléonore Mine.
The first phase of drilling at Éléonore South was completed in the spring and involved 12 diamond drill holes, probing a 2 x 3-kilometer area. Results have shown the interception of low-grade gold mineralization. These preliminary findings suggest potential for larger-scale discoveries involving complex geological formations containing structural anomalies.
Forward-Looking Drilling Efforts
Moving forward, the company is keen to target moderate to high arsenic anomalies within its structural corridors, as these could potentially signal the presence of gold mineralization. The results from Éléonore South highlight that even with limited drilling, the geological conditions favorable for gold discovery echo those observed at the Éléonore Mine.
Commitment to Exploration and Community Engagement
Fury Gold Mines Limited is firmly focused on expanding its footprint in Canada's mineral exploration landscape. The company is committed to pursuing sustainable mining practices that not only yield results but also positively impact communities and local environments. With a seasoned management team and strategic vision, Fury strives to become a leading player in the gold industry.
