TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 02/01/12 -- Forsys Metals Corp. ("Forsys" or the "Company") (TSX: FSY)(FRANKFURT: F2T)(NAMIBIAN: FSY) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement dated January 31, 2012 with Angus Mining (Namibia) Inc. ("Angus") pursuant to which Angus will relinquish all of its rights, title and interests under an Option Agreement dated July 30, 2010 with the Company that provided Angus with a right to earn up to a 75% interest in Forsys' subsidiary, Omatjete Mining Company (Namibia) (Pty) Ltd. ("Omatjete"). Omatjete holds a 100% ownership interest in the Ondundu Gold Project ("Ondundu") located in Namibia.
As consideration for this relinquishment Angus will receive a 20% carried ownership interest in Omatjete. Forsys will return to Angus for cancellation 3,000,000 common shares and 3,000,000 common share purchase warrants of Angus which Forsys received in September 2010, when the original Option Agreement was entered into. Forsys will also assume responsibility for outstanding Ondundu related payables of approximately C$300,000. The closing is subject to regulatory approvals. Forsys currently anticipates completion of the agreement to occur during February 2012.
"Retaining control of the Ondundu Gold Project will permit Forsys to reassess and update the project's economic potential. The Company will undertake a comprehensive review of the data obtained from the recent exploration activities undertaken by Angus and then determine the most appropriate way to progress Ondundu", said Marcel Hilmer, CEO and Director at Forsys.
