Fury Gold Mines Limited (TSX: FURY, NYSE American: FURY) (“Fury” or the “Company” - https://www.commodity-tv.com/play/auryn-resources-and-eastmain-resources-shareholder-approve-merger-and-peruvian-spin-off/ ) is pleased to provide a targeting update on the 50,000-meter drill program at the Eau Claire project in Quebec, scheduled to commence in the first week of November. Exploration drill targets that are focused on expanding the deposit will test a one-kilometer down plunge extension. The program will also focus on several highly prospective, untested gold targets within the 7-kilometer deposit trend. The first drill rig is on schedule to start next week and will concentrate near the existing deposit and a second rig will be added two weeks later and will commence the large step-out exploration.
A Message from Mike Timmins, President & CEO:
“Our first look at targeting supports our thesis that the Eau Claire project presents a much better opportunity than previously identified. The high-quality resource is open in all directions and benefits from increasing grade at depth. Our targeting continues to evolve and has already identified significant areas for resource expansion around the deposit and along the multi-kilometer, underexplored trend of gold-bearing structures, where we are identifying repeating target patterns.
“We are excited for the commencement of this substantial program, as we believe our comprehensive geological approach will demonstrate the considerable growth potential at Eau Claire.”
Eau Claire Deposit Extension Exploration Drilling:
Fury’s goal at Eau Claire is to significantly expand the deposit with a focused 10,000 – 12,000-meter drill program that targets a one-kilometer down plunge extension (Figure 1). The potential for high-grade gold mineralization to continue down plunge is strongly supported by newly acquired gradient array IP chargeability data where the intersection of primary and secondary shear zones has been imaged approximately 600 – 800 meters to the east of limits of drilling at the Eau Claire deposit (Figure 2). This newly imaged structural pattern is defined by the intersection of the mineralized Snake Lake structure and the projected continuation of the Eau Claire deposit structure. This structural geometry is consistent with that observed at the Eau Claire deposit and in part forms the basis of the down plunge targets (Figure 2).
Summary of Targets:
Target A is situated 100 – 300 meters down plunge from the limit of the current resource. The planned drill array represents a 200 – 500 meter down dip extension from the target area where historical drilling above the target area hosts intercepts of 1.0 meters of 12.6 g/t gold, 2.5 meters of 4.4 g/t gold and 2.0 meters of 4.8 g/t gold (Figure 1). Collectively, these historical results are associated with both quartz – tourmaline veins and secondary shear zone alteration and are interpreted to be vertically situated above
the projected down plunge extension of the deposit but demonstrate the continuity of mineralized system to the east of the current resource (Figure 1).
Target B is situated 500 - 700 meters down plunge from the limit of the current resource. The planned drill array represents a 400 - 700 meter down dip extension from historical drilling above the target area where there is a 20-meter-wide zone of alteration that is similar to that observed with secondary shear zones at the Eau Claire deposit (Figure 3). Importantly, newly acquired gradient array IP chargeability data images the intersection of the primary shear zone and secondary shear zones that are associated with the extension of the Eau Claire deposit structure and the mineralized Snake Lake structure, respectively. Similar structural intersections at the Eau Claire deposit are associated with high-grade gold mineralization. Fury is planning on drilling Target B first within this drill program within drill holes B1 and B2, respectively (Figure 3).
Target C is situated 800 – 1000 meters down plunge from the limit of the current resource. The planned drill array represents a 700 – 900 meter down dip extension from the historical drilling above the target area. This target is also situated along the same structural intersection of the Snake Lake and Eau Claire structures that in part defines Target B (Figure 2).
A Message from Michael Henrichsen, SVP of Exploration:
"Our technical team is very pleased with the results of our ongoing gradient array IP survey. The chargeability data is providing us with clear targets to significantly expand the deposit as we prepare to embark on an aggressive exploration drill program. We are also excited to complete this IP program and continue to develop high quality targets across the 7-kilometer deposit trend that have similar structural geometries as the Eau Claire deposit.”
