VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA (TSX VENTURE: FUR) announces that it has received all assays from Phase 1 drilling at the Company's 100% controlled Guijoso property in Jalisco State, Mexico. Between September and November, 2007 Fury completed 13 diamond drill holes for a total of 2,017 meters. The program was designed to test a two kilometer strike length of a vein system, which in previous surface sampling by the Company, returned high grade silver and gold values.

DRILL HIGHLIGHTS:

DDH-010 - 6.5 meters grading 216.8 g/t Ag and 0.247 g/t Au

Including - 1.0 meter grading 1,260.0 g/t Ag and 1.325 g/t Au

DDH-012 - 8.0 meters grading 106.2 g/t Ag and 0.020 g/t Au

Including - 5.0 meters grading 148.4 g/t Ag and 0.028 g/t Au

The company is pleased with the results and is considering a follow-up program of concentrated reverse circulation drilling to expand the zones outlined from surface sampling and phase I diamond drilling. In addition the Company has initiated a detailed program of reconnaissance, mapping and sampling to investigate other unexplored silver targets within the Company's 5,080 hectare concession.

Three holes were drilled to test the north section of the vein system. One hole (DDH-010) intersected a 6.5 meter zone averaging 216.8 g/t Ag and 0.247 g/t Au including a 1.0 meter vein that assayed 1,260 g/t Ag and 1.325 g/t Au. The second hole was lost at a shallow depth, and the third intersected a zone of veinlets with weak gold and silver values.

Three holes were drilled on the south part of the vein system in the area of historical workings. One was lost in a fault zone prior to reaching target depth and the other two intersected highly anomalous zones including 1.0 meter of 100.0 g/t Ag and 3.0 meters of 41.0 g/t Ag in hole DDH-009 and 106.2 g/t Ag over 8.0 meters including 148.4 g/t Ag over 5.0 meters in hole DDH-012.

Seven holes tested a 400 meter long section of the vein (the central section) that had previously returned several high gold assays in surface samples. One of the holes was lost in a shear zone close to target depth and the remaining six intersected zones anomalous in gold and silver.

Results of the drilling show that the vein system is not always a discrete vein and is often associated with clay rich shears and zones of fine veinlets over significant thicknesses.

Diamond drill core was split by company employees in a secure core shack near the drill site. Split samples were shipped to Guadalajara to ALS Chemex preparation laboratory where they were crushed and pulverized by standard procedures. A split of the pulp was then sent to the ALS Chemex laboratory in Vancouver for assaying. Gold was assayed by Chemex's AA23 method (fire assay with atomic absorption finish) and the remaining metals are assayed by Chemex's ICP-41 method (induced coupled plasma).
