Fury Gold (NYSE: FURY) launches 2026 drilling at Nunavut Committee Bay
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Fury Gold Mines has started its 2026 drilling program at the Committee Bay gold project in Nunavut, targeting resource growth at the Three Bluffs deposit and nearby Antler prospect. The program includes about 5,000 metres of diamond drilling.
At Three Bluffs, approximately 13 holes are planned along one kilometre of strike to infill and expand the existing mineral resource. Three Bluffs currently hosts an estimated 524,000 ounces of gold in 2.1 million tonnes at 7.85 g/t in the indicated category and 720,000 ounces in 2.9 million tonnes at 7.64 g/t in the inferred category.
Three holes are planned at Antler to step out from and infill around historical high-grade intercepts, with results expected to feed into a future updated mineral resource estimate. Fury states it is fully financed to complete the 2026 exploration programs at Committee Bay and its Eau Claire project in Quebec.

The 2026 program consists of approximately 5,000 metres of diamond drilling. Most metres are allocated to around 13 holes at the Three Bluffs deposit, with three additional holes planned at the Antler prospect to test step-out and infill targets.
What are the current mineral resources at Fury Gold Mines' Three Bluffs deposit?
The Three Bluffs deposit is estimated to contain 524,000 ounces of gold in 2.1 million tonnes at 7.85 g/t indicated, and 720,000 ounces in 2.9 million tonnes at 7.64 g/t inferred. These NI 43-101 compliant resources underpin the Committee Bay project.
What historical drill results is Fury targeting at the Antler prospect?
Fury is following up on historical intersections including 9.9 metres at 3.19 g/t gold in hole 16AN044 and 13.0 metres at 4.0 g/t gold in hole 11AN042. These zones remain open along strike and at depth, presenting potential for resource expansion.
Is Fury Gold Mines (FURY) funded for its 2026 exploration plans?
The company states it is fully financed to complete its proposed 2026 exploration programs at both the Committee Bay project in Nunavut and the Eau Claire property in Quebec. This supports planned drilling and related fieldwork without referencing additional funding needs.
How will 2026 drilling results be used at Committee Bay?
Fury expects results from the 2026 program to be incorporated into a future updated mineral resource estimate for Committee Bay. The drilling aims to infill and extend known mineralization, improving geological understanding and potentially increasing reported gold ounces.

Fury Commences 2026 Drilling Program at Committee Bay in Nunavut
Focused on Resource Growth at Three Bluffs and Antler
TORONTO, July 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fury Gold Mines Limited (TSX and NYSE American: FURY) (“Fury” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the 2026 drill program is underway at the Committee Bay project (“Committee Bay” or the “Project”), located in the eastern Kitikmeot region of Nunavut, Canada. The Project covers over 235,000 hectares with district-scale discovery potential.
The 2026 drill program will comprise approximately 5,000 metres (m) of diamond drilling, focusing on the Three Bluffs deposit and the Antler prospect where past drilling has identified significant gold mineralization (Figure 1). At the Three Bluffs deposit approximately 13 holes will be drilled along approximately one kilometre of strike length with a key focus to infill and expand the known mineral resources (Figure 2).
In the 2026 program, three holes are currently planned at the Antler gold zone to test high-priority step-out and infill targets identified through a review of historical drilling. Two previously drilled intersections — hole 16AN044 (9.9 m at 3.19 g/t Au) and hole 11AN042 (13.0 m at 4.0 g/t Au)1 — returned significant gold grades but remain untested along strike and at depth. A resource gap exists above the 2011 intersection, presenting an opportunity for resource expansion in an area of known mineralization. The Antler zone was last drilled in 2016 by a previous operator. Results from the 2026 program are expected to be incorporated into a future updated mineral resource estimate.
“We are excited to be returning to Committee Bay in 2026. Our plans this year will focus on areas where we believe additional drilling could expand the Project’s mineral resource and potentially add ounces at Antler, which is less than 2km away from the Three Bluffs deposit,” commented Tim Clark, CEO of Fury. “The summer program reflects our continued focus on growing ounces at Committee Bay, thereby generating value across Fury’s gold portfolio through disciplined technical execution.”
The planned drilling strategy is focused on maximizing drilling efficiency and increasing drill density in priority areas through a systematic approach. The selected areas required less helicopter time and are less affected by weather-related disruptions, allowing the Company to advance the program more efficiently. The program will also provide additional information on grade variability, which can improve the understanding of geological structure for future exploration and development planning.

Three Bluffs Deposit
The high-grade Three Bluffs Gold deposit is located centrally within the Committee Bay project and is estimated to contain 524,000 oz of gold in 2.1 million tonnes (Mt) at 7.85 g/t gold in the indicated mineral resource category and 720,000 oz in 2.9Mt 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”).
The 2025 drilling program at Three Bluffs consisted of six diamond drill holes totaling approximately 2,778m. Four of the drill holes (2,041m), focused on expansion drilling at the Three Bluffs Shear Zone, intercepting gold mineralization across 315m of strike with mineralized widths of up to 19.5m, including 5.73 grams per tonne (g/t) gold across 3.0m within a broader interval of 1.18 g/t gold over 19.5m (Hole 25TB155), which ended in the mineralized zone. The remaining two drill holes, which totaled 737m, tested the southern contact of the 8 kilometre (km) long Raven Shear Zone, which historically returned drill intercepts of up to 12.60 g/t gold over 5.49m and 31.1 g/t gold across 2.8m with outcropping gold mineralization defined over 1.4 km (see release dated November 10, 2025).
2025 drilling in Nunavut successfully extended mineralization at Three Bluffs and confirmed the previously under explored regional scale shear zones contain strong alteration and gold mineralization across significant widths. Consistent with high-grade orogenic gold systems, gold mineralization within the Three Bluffs shear zone is highly variable over short distances.
Antler Prospect
The Antler prospect is located within the Committee Bay gold belt, approximately 1.2km from the Three Bluffs deposit. Drilling will test extensions of known mineralization at depth and along strike, including to the west, which will require additional drilling to confirm continuity in that area.
In addition, the Company hopes to carry out a prospecting and sampling program on other previously identified gold occurrences on the property. The goal of this program is to prioritize other areas for future diamond drilling. Fury is fully financed to complete both of the proposed 2026 exploration programs at Committee Bay and its Eau Claire property in the Eeyou-Istchee/James Bay region of Quebec.
