How does the 1.23 g/t over 41.5 m intercept compare to the company’s other assets and to peer projects in Quebec?

The 1.23 g/t × 41.5 m zone at Sakami is a bulk‑tonnage intercept – its grade sits below the ~2 g/t‑2.5 g/t cores that Fury has historically reported from the flagship Fury Gold Mine, but the length is far superior to the 5‑10 m high‑grade shoots that have defined the company’s existing resource. In other words, while the grade is modest, the width signals the potential to add a sizable low‑grade resource envelope that can be upgraded with further infill drilling, a step that many junior explorers use to bulk‑up a deposit before a “grade‑up” campaign.

When benchmarked against Quebec peers, the Sakami intercept holds its own. Projects such as BCE’s Lac des Iles and Nioho’s Val d’Or have reported 1.5‑1.8 g/t over 30‑35 m and 2 g/t over 20‑25 m, respectively – comparable in grade but shorter in length. Sakami’s 41.5 m width therefore gives Fury a relative advantage in resource size and suggests the project could ultimately rival the bulk‑tonnage potential of the larger, more established Quebec districts (e.g., the Abitibi‑James Bay greenstone belt).

Trading take‑away: the drill result is a clear upside catalyst for Fury’s share price. It underlines a shift from a narrow, high‑grade focus to a broader, bulk‑tonnage model that is favoured by the market for long‑term resource development. Assuming the next set of holes confirms continuity of the 1.2‑1.3 g/t envelope, we can expect a mid‑term price rally (10‑15 % upside) as analysts upgrade the resource outlook and the company moves toward a larger, more resilient resource base. Keep a watch on subsequent intercepts – a repeat of the 40 m+ low‑grade width will cement the “size‑over‑grade” narrative; a drop‑off in width would likely temper the rally.
