Item 4.01
Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
 
On April 12, 2013, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Silver Horn Mining Ltd. (the “Company”) approved the dismissal of Drake & Klein CPAs (“DK”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, DK’s reports on the Company's financial statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except DK’s audit report for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 stated that several factors raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and that the financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the subsequent periods through April 12, 2013, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and DK on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of DK, would have caused DK to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements; and (ii) there were no reportable events as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
 
On April 12, 2013, the Company provided DK with a copy of the disclosures it is making in response to Item 4.01 on this Form 8-K, and has requested that DK furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements.  A copy of the letter, dated April 12, 2013, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 (which is incorporated by reference herein) to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

On December 17, 2012, the audit firm of Drake & Klein CPAs changed its name to DKM Certified Public Accountants.  The change was reported to the PCAOB as a change of name.  This is not a change of auditors for the Company.

On April 12, 2013, the Company engaged D. Brooks and Associates CPA's, P.A.  (“Brooks”) as its independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. The change in the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on April 12, 2013.
