Forsys Metals Corp. ("Forsys" or the "Company")
(TSX:FSY)(FRANKFURT:F2T)(NSX:FSY) is pleased to announce that it has entered
into a purchase agreement with Etherlin Management Corp ("Etherlin") pursuant to
which the Company will acquire from Etherlin its indirect 30% equity interest in
the Namibplaas Uranium Project ("Namibplaas") in Namibia. The acquisition is in
exchange for the issue by the Company of 13,000,000 new common shares in the
capital of the Company and 2,000,000 common share purchase warrants of the
Company. Upon completion of the acquisition, Forsys will have a 100% equity
interest in Namibplaas.


The Company is also pleased to announce that it has commenced phase two of its
2011/12 drilling program at Namibplaas with an approved budget of C$2,500,000.
The Company is targeting an updated compliant NI 43-101 Technical Report in the
third quarter of 2012.


Forsys' Chief Executive Officer Marcel Hilmer said, "By acquiring the remaining
30% interest in Namibplaas, Forsys is able to benefit fully from the advanced
exploration program and has full control over the project consolidation
assessment with the already 100% owned Valencia Uranium Project. The acquisition
is a significant step towards a consolidated Valencia/Namibplaas uranium project
with the aim of completion of an updated Feasibility Study in 2012 incorporating
increased resources, lower capital and operating costs and improved overall
project economics. The maiden resource statement for Namibplaas released in
September 2011 confirmed the project's potential and we are pleased to have now
commenced a second phase 40,000 metre percussion drilling program at
Namibplaas."


Acquisition of 30% Interest in Namibplaas Uranium Project

Pursuant to the purchase agreement, the Company will acquire 100% of the shares
of Gold Enterprises Limited which owns 30% of the shares of Dunefield Mining
Company (Pty) Limited which in turn owns the 100% equity interest in Namibplaas
in exchange for the issue to Etherlin of 13,000,000 shares and 2,000,000 share
purchase warrants, each warrant entitling the holder to acquire one share at a
price of C$1.10 for a period of 2 years from the date of issue. The shares and
warrants shall be issued to Etherlin in reliance on exemptions from the
requirement to prepare a prospectus and shall be subject to statutory resale
restrictions for a period of four months and one day from the date of issue.


Completion of the purchase agreement is conditional, among other things, on all
necessary third party, regulatory or tax approvals being obtained and Etherlin
satisfying its shareholder funding obligations for the 2011 exploration
expenditures on Namibplass to date of C$1,030,000.


2011/12 Namibplaas Drilling Program

The Company has commenced phase two of its 2011/12 drilling program at

by the third quarter of 2012.


The aim of the 2011/12 drilling program is to complete an additional 40,000
metres of percussion drilling in a total of approximately 200 holes. This would
bring the drill spacing to 40 by 40 metres and allow for completion of an update
of the NI 43-101 resource statement for Namibplaas previously announced in
