with Mutiny Gold</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 9.75pt 0">VANCOUVER, Aug. 19, 2013 /CNW/ - Sandstorm Gold Ltd. (&quot;Sandstorm&quot;
or the &quot;Company&quot;) (NYSE MKT:SAND, TSX:SSL) has amended the previously announced gold stream agreement (the &quot;Amended
Gold Stream&quot;) with Mutiny Gold Ltd. (&quot;Mutiny&quot;) (ASX:MYG). Mutiny is developing the Deflector project located in
the Murchison Region of Western Australia (&quot;Deflector&quot;).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 9.75pt 0">In accordance with the Amended Gold Stream, Sandstorm has
agreed to purchase an amount equal to 2.6% of the gold produced from Deflector in exchange for an upfront payment of US$6 million
(the &quot;Upfront Payment&quot;). The Upfront Payment was previously remitted to Mutiny in the form of a loan, so there are no
additional payments that are required to be made by Sandstorm.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 9.75pt 0">ABOUT SANDSTORM GOLD</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 9.75pt 0">Sandstorm Gold Ltd. is a gold streaming company. Sandstorm
provides upfront financing for gold mining companies that are looking for capital and in return receives a gold streaming agreement.
This agreement gives Sandstorm the right to purchase a percentage of the life of mine gold produced, at a fixed price. Sandstorm
is a non-operating gold mining company with a portfolio of ten gold streams, six of which are producing gold, and five NSR royalties.
Sandstorm plans to grow and diversify its low cost production profile through the acquisition of additional gold streams.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 9.75pt 0">Sandstorm is focused on low cost operations with excellent
exploration potential and strong management teams. Sandstorm has completed gold purchase or royalty agreements with Brigus Gold
Corp., Canadian Zinc Corp., Colossus Minerals Inc., Columbus Gold Corp., Donner Metals Ltd., Entr&eacute;e Gold Inc., Luna Gold
Corp., Magellan Minerals Ltd., Metanor Resources Inc., Mutiny Gold Ltd., Santa Fe Gold Corp., SilverCrest Mines Inc., Rambler Metals
and Mining plc and Solitario Exploration &amp; Royalty Corp.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 9.75pt 0">CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 9.75pt 0">This press release contains &quot;forward-looking statements&quot;,
within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 and applicable Canadian securities legislation, concerning the business, operations and financial performance
and condition of Sandstorm Gold Ltd. (&quot;Sandstorm&quot;). Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements
with respect to the future price of gold, the estimation of mineral reserves and resources, realization of mineral reserve estimates,
and the timing and amount of estimated future production.&nbsp; Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use
of forward-looking terminology such as &quot;may&quot;, &quot;will&quot;, &quot;expect&quot;, &quot;intend&quot;, &quot;estimate&quot;,
&quot;anticipate&quot;, &quot;believe&quot;, &quot;continue&quot;, &quot;plans&quot;, or similar terminology.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 9.75pt 0">Forward-looking statements are made based upon certain assumptions
and other important factors that, if untrue, could cause the actual results, performances or achievements of Sandstorm to be materially
different from future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by such statements.&nbsp; Such statements and
information are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the environment in which Sandstorm
will operate in the future, including the price of gold and anticipated costs. Certain important factors that could cause actual
results, performances or achievements to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, amongst others,
gold price volatility, discrepancies between actual and estimated production, mineral reserves and resources and metallurgical
recoveries, mining operational and development risks relating to the parties which produce the gold Sandstorm will purchase, regulatory
restrictions, activities by governmental authorities (including changes in taxation), currency fluctuations, the global economic
climate, dilution, share price volatility and competition.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 9.75pt 0">Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements
of Sandstorm to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including but not limited
to: the impact of general business and economic conditions,&nbsp; the absence of control over mining operations from which Sandstorm
will purchase gold and risks related to those mining operations, including risks related to international operations, government
and environmental regulation, actual results of current exploration activities, conclusions of economic evaluations and changes
in project parameters as plans continue to be refined, risks in the marketability of minerals, fluctuations in the price of gold,
fluctuation in foreign exchange rates and interest rates, stock market volatility, as well as those factors discussed in the section
entitled &quot;Risks to Sandstorm&quot;&nbsp; in Sandstorm's annual report for the financial year ended December 31, 2012 available
at www.sedar.com.&nbsp; Although Sandstorm has attempted to identify important factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors
that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended.&nbsp; There can be no assurance that such statements will prove
to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.&nbsp; Accordingly,
readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.&nbsp; Sandstorm does not undertake to update any forward
looking statements that are contained or incorporated by reference, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.</P>
