Fury Appoints Senior Director, Environment and Permits

TORONTO, May 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fury Gold Mines Limited (TSX and NYSE American: FURY) (“Fury” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the appointment of Annie Blier, as Senior Director, Environment and Permits, who will lead the environmental strategy, technical studies, and permitting roadmap required to advance the Eau Claire high-grade gold project (“Eau Claire” or the “Project”) towards feasibility, while supporting proactive, respectful engagement with Indigenous Nations and local communities.

With over 20 years of mining experience, Ms. Blier has managed environmental and social impact assessments, coordinated provincial and federal authorizations, and implemented environmental management systems across project life cycles—from exploration and construction through operations and closure. Her background includes leading multi-disciplinary teams, managing technical consultants, and maintaining strong working relationships with regulators and government agencies to deliver on permitting schedules and compliance commitments. Ms. Blier has held senior positions at various mining companies, including Director of Sustainable Development at IAMGOLD Corporation for 15 years, and Hecla Québec.

Ms. Blier also brings deep experience in Indigenous and community relations, including supporting consultation processes, establishing stakeholder communication tools, and participating in negotiations that have led to agreements and cooperation frameworks. Her approach integrates environmental performance with meaningful engagement—helping projects identify and manage key environmental and social risks early.

“We are pleased to welcome Annie to the Fury team as we advance Eau Claire towards feasibility. Annie’s contribution will be instrumental in defining and executing a clear environmental and permitting roadmap, ensuring that scope, sequencing, budgets, and critical path activities are aligned with our development objectives,” commented Tim Clark, CEO of Fury. “We also look forward to strengthening Indigenous and community engagement practices as we incorporate community perspectives into project design, and build the trust required for long-term, responsible development.”

Ms. Blier holds a Bachelor’s degree in biochemistry and a Master’s degree in environment from Sherbrooke University, and she is a registered chemist with the Ordre des chimistes du Québec since 1995.
