Fury Announces C$4.3M Strategic Investment

TORONTO, May 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fury Gold Mines Limited (TSX and NYSE American: FURY) (“Fury” or the “Company”) announces that it has entered into a subscription agreement with Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (“Agnico Eagle”) pursuant to which Agnico Eagle has acquired, on a non-brokered private placement basis, 6,728,000 units in the capital of the Company (“Units”) at C$0.64 per Unit for gross proceeds of C$4,305,920 (the “Private Placement”). Each Unit consists of one common share of Fury (“Share(s)”) and one common share purchase warrant (“Warrant(s)”). Each Warrant is exercisable to purchase one Share at C$0.80 (the “Exercise Price”) for a 36-month period from the date of issuance on May 26, 2025, subject to accelerated expiry after 24 months if the market price of the Shares closes above the Exercise Price for twenty (20) consecutive trading days.

Agnico previously acquired 3,750,000 Shares (2.3% of 160,332,345 issued Shares) and this investment increases Agnico’s basic ownership to 6.3% of Fury’s issued shares and its defined “ownership interest” to 9.9% calculated on a “partially diluted” basis (calculated on the assumptions that Agnico exercises its Warrants and no other dilutive securities are exercised).

Proceeds from the Private Placement will be allocated as follows: C$3.9 million for exploration under the Company’s 2025 exploration program at the Committee Bay project in the Kitikmeot Region of Nunavut, which will be announced in the coming weeks, and the remainder is available for other projects and general corporate purposes.

“We are pleased to have Agnico Eagle, one of Canada’s premier companies and a top global gold producer, make an additional investment that will permit Fury to advance our understanding of the exploration potential at our Committee Bay project in Nunavut,” commented Tim Clark, CEO of Fury. “We believe the Arctic is likely to become increasingly important for future mineral exploration and with this in mind, we are excited to accelerate our plans to build on past drilling success. As a reminder to investors, Fury retains full ownership of this exceptional project, which spans a 300km greenstone belt—an impressive land package that is unique for a junior exploration company.”

All Shares, Warrants and any Shares issued on exercise of Warrants will have a four-month (from closing) resale restricted hold period in Canada. These securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities act of 1933.

On closing of the Private Placement, the Company and Agnico Eagle entered into an investor rights agreement pursuant to which Agnico Eagle has been granted certain rights (provided that it maintains certain ownership thresholds), including (i) the right to nominate one person to the board of directors of the Company, and (ii) the right to participate in certain equity offerings and top-up its holdings in relation to dilutive issuances in order to maintain or acquire up to the greater of Agnico Eagle’s then-current ownership interest and an ownership interest of 9.9%.
