Note 1: Nature of operations

 

Fury Gold Mines Limited (the “Company” or “Fury Gold”) was incorporated on June 9, 2008, under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the NYSE-American, with its common shares trading under the symbol FURY. The Company’s registered and records office is at 1500-1055 West Georgia Street Vancouver, BC, V6E 4N7 and the mailing address is 1630-1177 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC, V6E 2K3.

 

The Company’s principal business activity is the acquisition and exploration of resource projects in Canada. At June 30, 2022, the Company had two principal projects: Eau Claire in Quebec, and Committee Bay in Nunavut.

 

Sale of Homestake Resources Corporation

 

On December 6, 2021, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Dolly Varden Silver Corporation (“Dolly Varden”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to Dolly Varden a 100% interest in Fury Gold’s wholly owned subsidiary, Homestake Resources Corporation (“Homestake Resources”) in exchange for $5,000 in cash and 76,504,590 common shares in Dolly Varden. Homestake Resources is the owner of a 100% interest in the Homestake Ridge gold-silver project which is located adjacent to the Dolly Varden Project owned by Dolly Varden in the Golden Triangle, British Columbia (“the Dolly Varden Transaction”). The Dolly Varden Transaction completed on February 25, 2022 (note 3). As a result, Fury acquired 76,504,590 common shares of Dolly Varden on February 25, 2022, representing approximately 35.3% of the Dolly Varden Shares outstanding as of the transaction date.

 

In connection with the Dolly Varden Transaction and as contemplated in the Purchase Agreement, Dolly Varden and Fury Gold have also entered into an investor rights agreement dated February 25, 2022 (the “Investor Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to its obligations under the Investor Rights Agreement, Dolly Varden has appointed Forrester “Tim” Clark, the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of Fury Gold, and Michael Henrichsen, the Chief Geological Officer (“CGO”) of Fury Gold, to the board of directors of Dolly Varden.

 

Acquisition of 25% equity interest in Universal Mineral Services Ltd (“UMS”)

 

On April 1, 2022, the Company purchased a 25% share interest in UMS, a private shared-services provider for nominal consideration (note 6). The remaining 75% of UMS is owned equally by three other junior resource issuers, namely Tier One Silver Corporation, Coppernico Metals Inc, and Torq Resources who share a head office location in Vancouver, BC. Previously, UMS had been privately owned by a director in common, Mr. Ivan Bebek, then subsequently from January 1, 2022, by Mr. Steve Cook, another director in common, until March 31, 2022.

  

UMS is the private company through which its shareholders, including Fury Gold, share geological, financial, and transactional advisory services as well as administrative services on a full, cost recovery basis. Having these services available through UMS, on an as needed basis, allows the Company to maintain a more efficient and cost-effective corporate overhead structure by hiring fewer full-time employees and engaging outside professional advisory firms less frequently. The agreement has an indefinite term and can be terminated by either party upon providing 180 days notice. Many of the Company’s key personnel are now, or will be, directly employed by UMS and seconded to the Company and other members of the group.

 

Response to COVID-19

 

The situation in Canada regarding COVID-19 remains fluid and permitted activities continue to be subject to change. At the Company’s Eau Claire project in Quebec, on-site measures are in place for non-vaccinated employees to mitigate the potential spread of the COVID-19 virus. These measures include a pre-travel COVID-19 screening questionnaire; a pre-travel COVID-19 PCR testing; and on-site Rapid Testing for COVID-19.

Note 2: Basis of presentation

 

Statement of compliance

 

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (the “interim financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Certain disclosures included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements (the “consolidated financial statements”) prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the IASB and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRICs”) have been condensed or omitted herein. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

These interim financial statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Company on August 11, 2022.

 

Basis of preparation and consolidation

 

These interim financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Control exists when the Company has power over an investee, exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the Company’s returns. The Company’s interim results are not necessarily indicative of its results for a full year.

 

The subsidiaries (with a beneficial interest of 100%) of the Company at June 30, 2022 were as follows:

(a) Company incorporated federally in Canada.

 

(b) Fury Gold USA was incorporated on November 21, 2021 and provides certain administrative services with respect to employee benefits for US resident personnel.

 

These interim financial statements also include a 33.2% investment in Dolly Varden and a 25% investment in UMS (note 6) that are accounted for using the equity method.

 

These interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that have been measured at fair value (note 14). All amounts are expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted. Reference to US$ are to United States dollars. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Segmented information

 

The Company’s operating segments are reviewed by the key decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and to assess their performance. The Company operates in one reportable operating segment, being the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral resource properties, and in one geographical location, Canada.

 

Critical accounting estimates, judgements, and policies

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to select accounting policies and make estimates and judgments that may have a significant impact on consolidated financial statements. Estimates are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual outcomes may differ from these estimates.

In preparing the Company’s interim financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company applied the significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates and judgements disclosed in notes 3 and 5, respectively, of its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, except as noted below:

 

Investments in associates

 

The Company conducts a portion of its business through equity interests in associates. An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence and is neither a subsidiary nor a joint venture. The Company has significant influence when it has the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the associate but does not have control or joint control over those policy decisions.

 

The Company accounts for its investments in associates using the equity method. Under the equity method, the Company’s investment in an associate is initially recognized at cost and subsequently increased or decreased to recognize the Company’s share of earnings and losses of the associate, after any adjustments necessary to give effect to uniform accounting policies, and for impairment losses after the initial recognition date. The Company’s share of an associate’s losses that are in excess of its investment in the associate are recognized only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. The Company’s share of earnings and losses of its associate are recognized in net (earnings)/loss during the period.

 

New and amended standards not yet effective

 

Certain pronouncements have been issued by the IASB that are mandatory for accounting periods beginning after December 31, 2022. The Company has not early adopted any of these pronouncements, and they are not expected to have a significant impact in the foreseeable future on the Company’s consolidated financial statements once adopted.

 

 

Note 3: Sale of Homestake Resources

 

On February 25, 2022, the Company completed the sale of Homestake Resources to Dolly Varden for cash proceeds of $5,000 and 76,504,590 common shares of Dolly Varden (note 6). The Company’s resulting interest in Dolly Varden represented approximately 35.3% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Dolly Varden on February 25, 2022, which has been accounted for using the equity method. The Company recognized a gain of $48,390, net of transaction costs of $589, on the date of disposition, calculated as follows:

The fair value of the common shares of Dolly Varden received on date of disposition is based on the market price of the shares at the date of disposition of $0.79.

 

The Company has sufficient non-capital losses as at June 30, 2022 to offset the capital gain arising on disposition of Homestake Resources. As such, there is nil tax payable on the sale of Homestake Resources.

Note 5: Mineral interests

 

The Company’s principal resource properties are located in Canada.

 

Quebec

 

The Company maintains interests in 12 properties within the James Bay region of Quebec. The principal projects are:

 

Eau Claire

 

The Company owns a 100% interest in the Eau Claire project located immediately north of the Eastmain reservoir, approximately 10 kilometres (“km”) northeast of Hydro Quebec’s EM-1 hydroelectric power facility, 80 km north of the town of Nemaska, 320 km northeast of the town of Matagami, and 800 km north of Montreal, Quebec. The property consists of map-designated claims totaling approximately 23,000 hectares.

 

Eastmain Mine

 

The Eastmain Mine project hosts the Eastmain Mine gold deposit. The past-producing Eastmain Mine project comprises 152 mineral claims and an industrial lease. Located on the eastern most part of the Upper Eastmain River Greenstone Belt of the James Bay District of northern Quebec, the property covers approximately 80 km2 of highly prospective terrain.

 

In 2019, Benz Mining entered into an option agreement with Eastmain to allow Benz Mining the option to earn a 75% interest in the Eastmain Mine property in return for making option payments of $2,320 between October 2019 and October 2023, and incurring exploration expenditures of $3,500 on the property. The option payments may be settled in both cash and shares. Upon completion of the first option to earn 75%, Benz Mining may acquire the remaining 25% interest upon payment of $1,000 upon closing of project financing, and $1,500 upon commencement of commercial production. This option agreement was subsequently amended in April 2020 to grant Benz Mining the option to earn up to 100% of the Ruby Hill properties located to the west of the Eastmain Mine project. The Company would retain 1-2% net smelter return (“NSR”) royalties pursuant to the amended agreement are due annually in October.

Éléonore South Joint Venture

 

The Éléonore South Joint Venture project consists of two separate blocks of map-designated claims, comprising a total of 282 claims covering approximately 147 km2 of the Opinaca area of James Bay, Quebec. The Éléonore West block consists of 34 mineral claims covering approximately 18 km2, while the Éléonore South block contains 248 claims extending over an area of approximately 130 km2. The project is a three-way joint venture agreement between Eastmain, Azimut Exploration Inc. (“Azimut”), and Goldcorp Canada Ltd. (“Goldcorp Canada”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Newmont Corporation (“Newmont”). Project ownership is based on participation in the funding of annual exploration programs. At June 30, 2022 the project was held by the joint operation partners approximately as follows: Fury Gold 38.12%, Goldcorp Canada 38.11%, and Azimut 23.77%.

 

Subsequently to the end of the second quarter, on August 8, 2022, the Company announced that the Company and Newmont, through their respective subsidiaries, had concurrently agreed to purchase Azimut’s 23.77% interest in the project for approximately $1,200. Upon completion of the purchase, which is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2022 and is subject to certain conditions precedent, the Company and Newmont will hold interest of 50.022% and 49.978%, respectively. The Company will remain as operator.

  

Nunavut

 

Committee Bay

 

The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary North Country, owns a 100% interest in the Committee Bay project located in Nunavut, Canada.

The Committee Bay project is subject to a 1% NSR royalty on gold production, with certain portions subject to an additional 1.5% NSR royalty. The 1.5% NSR royalty is payable on only 7,596 hectares and can be purchased by the Company within two years of commencement of commercial production for $2,000 for each one-third (0.5%) of the 1.5% NSR royalty.

 

Gibson MacQuoid

 

In 2017, the Company acquired a number of prospecting permits and mineral claims along the Gibson MacQuoid Greenstone Belt in Nunavut, Canada. In 2019, the Company staked additional claims, which overlapped the Company’s prospecting claims that expired in February 2020, to maintain a contiguous land package over the Company’s current areas of interest. The Company’s claims, which are located between the Meliadine deposit and Meadowbank mine, cover approximately 120 km of strike length of the prospective greenstone belt and total 51,622 hectares collectively.

Note 6: Investment in associates

 

(a) Acquisition of Dolly Varden

 

The Dolly Varden Transaction completed on February 25, 2022. As a result, Fury acquired 76,504,590 Dolly Varden Shares on February 25, 2022, representing approximately 35.3% of the Dolly Varden Shares outstanding. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, Dolly Varden completed a private placement which included the issuance of 11.3 million common shares, resulting in the Company’s equity interest being diluted to 33.2% as of June 30, 2022. Dolly Varden holds a 100% interest in the gold-silver Kitsault Valley project including the Dolly Varden Project and the Homestake Ridge gold-silver project, located in the southern tip of the Golden Triangle of British Columbia.

 

(b) Acquisition of UMS

 

On April 1, 2022, the Company purchased a 25% share interest in UMS for nominal consideration (note 1). The Company further recognized as part of its net investment in UMS, a cash deposit of $150 which is held by UMS for the purposes of general working capital, and which will only be returned to the Company upon termination of the UMS arrangement.

 

As part of the UMS arrangement, the Company is contractually obliged to pay certain rental expenses in respect of a ten-year office lease entered into by UMS on July 1, 2021.

Note 7: Flow-through share premium liability

 

Flow-through shares are issued at a premium, calculated as the difference between the price of a flow-through share and the price of a common share at that date. Tax deductions generated by eligible expenditures are passed through to the shareholders of the flow-through shares once the eligible expenditures are incurred and renounced. In July 2020, in response to the economic impact of COVID-19, the Government of Canada extended the timelines for eligible expenditures from 24 to 36 months.

 

In September 2020, the Company completed an equity financing by raising $23,000 through the issuance of 7,750,000 subscription receipts. Out of the subscription receipts sold, 5,000,000 were flow-through receipts for gross proceeds of $17,500 and were exchanged for Fury Gold common shares designated as flow-through shares, while 2,750,000 subscription receipts were sold as non-flow-through for gross proceeds of $5,500 and exchanged for Fury Gold common shares. The flow-through proceeds are being used for mineral exploration in Quebec. The Company is committed to incur the remaining exploration expenditures of $3,992 (December 31, 2021 – $7,290) before December 31, 2022, which was renounced to investors in December 2020.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company granted 1,685,000 and 3,430,000 share options, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2021 – 130,000 and 130,000, respectively) to directors, officers, employees, and certain consultants who provide certain on-going services to the Company, representative of employee services. The weighted average fair value per option of these share options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was calculated as $0.48 and $0.46, respectively, using the Black-Scholes option valuation model at the grant date.

 

The fair value of the share-based options granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was based on the following weighted average assumptions:

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on the Government of Canada benchmark bond yields and treasury bills with a remaining term that approximates the expected life of the share-based options. The expected volatility assumption is based on the historical and implied volatility of the Company’s common shares. The expected forfeiture rate and the expected life in years are based on historical trends.

 

(b) Share option plan

 

The Company maintains a rolling share option plan providing for the issuance of share options up to 10% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares at the time of the grant. The Company may grant share options from time to time to its directors, officers, employees, and other service providers. The share options typically vest as to 25% on the date of the grant and 12.5% every three months thereafter for a total vesting period of 18 months.

(b) Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value

 

The categories of the fair value hierarchy that reflect the significance of inputs used in making fair value measurements are as follows:

 

Level 1 – fair values based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 – fair values based on inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

 

Level 3 – fair values based on inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

 

The Company’s policy to determine when a transfer occurs between levels is to assess the impact at the date of the event or the change in circumstances that could result in a transfer. No transfers occurred between the levels during the period.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, there were no financial assets or financial liabilities transferred, measured, and recognized in the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position at fair value that would be categorized as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

 

(c) Financial instruments and related risks

 

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to liquidity risk, and market risks, which include currency risk and price risk. As at June 30, 2022, the primary risks were as follows:

 

Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company proactively manages its capital resources and has in place a budgeting and cash management process to help determine the funds required to ensure the Company has the appropriate liquidity to meet its current exploration plans and achieve its growth objectives. The Company ensures that there is sufficient liquidity available to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash outflows from exploration activities, and its holdings of cash and marketable securities. The Company monitors and adjusts, when required, these exploration programs as well as corporate administrative costs to ensure that adequate levels of working capital are maintained.

 

As at June 30, 2022, the Company had unrestricted cash of $12,361 (December 31, 2021 – $3,259), working capital surplus of $9,696 (December 31, 2021 – working capital deficit of $428), which the Company defines as current assets less current liabilities, and an accumulated deficit of $116,690 (December 31, 2021 – $156,749). The Company notes that the flow-through share premium liability, which reduced the Company’s working capital by $1,710 (December 31, 2021 – $3,124), is not settled through cash payment. Instead, the flow-through share premium liability will be drawn down as the Company incurs exploration expenditures for the Eau Claire project. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Fury Gold recognized net loss and net earnings of $5,577 and $40,059, respectively, (three and six months ended June 30, 2021 – net losses of $4,060 and $8,985) primarily arising from the sale of Homestake Resources (note 3). The Company expects to incur future operating losses in relation to exploration activities. With no source of operating cash flow, there is no assurance that sufficient funding will be available to conduct further exploration and development of its mineral properties.

The expenditures for the remaining drilling metres will be applied against the flow-through expenditure requirements included in the table above.

The Company also makes certain payments arising on mineral claims and leases on an annual or bi-annual basis to ensure all the Company’s properties remain in good standing. Cash payments of $49 and $71 were made during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 (three and six months ended June 30, 2021 - $nil and $266), in respect of these mineral claims, with $100 recognized in prepaid expenses as at June 30, 2022 (June 30, 2021 – $214).

 

Market risk

 

This is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Significant market risks to which the Company is exposed are as follows:

 

i. Currency risk

 

The Company is exposed to currency risk by having balances and transactions in currencies that are different from its functional currency (the Canadian dollar). The Company’s foreign currency exposure related to its financial assets and liabilities held in US dollars was as follows:
