5.1

Full Description of Material Change

 

 

 

On February 25, 2022, Fury sold to Dolly Varden a 100% interest in Homestake Resource Corporation pursuant to the Purchase Agreement in exchange for a $5,000,000 cash payment and the issuance of 76,504,590 Common Shares of Dolly Varden (the “Dolly Varden Shares”). The Dolly Varden Shares were valued at $45 million under the Purchase Agreement although a higher value will be recorded for them on the books and financial statements of Fury Gold as the Dolly Varden Common Share price was higher on the date of completion than it was on the date of the Purchase Agreement. Homestake Resource Corporation owns a 100% interest in the Homestake Project. As a result of the Transaction, Fury now owns approximately 35.33% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Dolly Varden and 32.88% on a fully-diluted basis. The Transaction was approved by Dolly Varden's shareholders on February 22, 2022, pursuant to the requirements of the TSX Venture Exchange.
