Delta, British Columbia CANADA, May 01, 2012 /FSC/ - Deer Horn Metals Inc. (DHM - TSX Venture, GODYF - OTC Pink"DHM" or "Deer Horn") would like to inform its shareholders that it has cancelled its Memorandum of Understanding(MOU) with World Industrial Minerals (WIM). The MOU was signed in March 2010 and allowed WIM to have the first right of refusal

for the purchase of tellurium at the Deer Horn property. Management believes that the cancelling of the MOU provides the company greater flexibility in advancing our near surface high grade Au/Ag/Te resource.

Tony Fogarassy Deer Horn's chairman recently attended a minor metals conference in Cologne Germany. The interest level in Tellurium at the conference was very encouraging. The level of interest is attributed to the fact that Deer Horn metals (DHM: V) is the first company to have an NI 43-101 resource calculation for Tellurium. Tellurium continues to play a vital role in industries such as solar panels and electronics.

Deer Horn Metals Inc. is also pleased to announce that it has increased its previously announced non-brokered Private Placement.
