Sandstorm Gold Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid
VANCOUVER, Dec. 15, 2014 /CNW/ - Sandstorm Gold Ltd. ("Sandstorm"
or the "Company") (NYSE MKT: SAND, TSX: SSL) is pleased to announce that the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX")
has accepted the Company's notice that it intends to proceed with a normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") in accordance with
TSX rules. Under the NCIB, Sandstorm may purchase up to 5,882,879 of its common shares, representing 5% of the Company's
issued and outstanding common shares of 117,657,587 as of December 11, 2014.
Purchases under the NCIB may commence on December 17, 2014 and will terminate
on the earlier of December 16, 2015, the date that Sandstorm completes its purchases pursuant to the notice of intention to make
the NCIB as filed with the TSX or the date of notice by Sandstorm of termination of the NCIB. All purchases under the NCIB will
be executed on the open market through the facilities of the TSX or alternative Canadian trading platforms (if eligible) and will
be made at the market price of the common shares at the time of acquisition. These purchases will be funded by Sandstorm's
working capital and any common shares acquired by the Company under the NCIB will be cancelled. Sandstorm's average daily trading
volume on the TSX during the last six calendar months was 307,783 common shares. Daily purchases will not exceed 76,945 common
shares, subject to the Company's ability to make block purchases under the rules of the TSX. No share purchases have been made
by the Company pursuant to a NCIB in the last twelve months.
The NCIB provides Sandstorm with the option to purchase the Company's
common shares from time to time when Sandstorm's management believes that the common shares are undervalued by the market.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation
of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which
such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This press release contains "forward-looking statements", 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. ("Sandstorm"). 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. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as "may", "will", "expect", "intend", "estimate", "anticipate",
"believe", "continue", "plans", or similar terminology.
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. 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.
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, 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 "Risks
to Sandstorm" in Sandstorm's annual report for the financial year ended December 31, 2013 available at www.sedar.com. 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. 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. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
Sandstorm does not undertake to update any forward looking statements that are contained or incorporated by reference, except in
accordance with applicable securities laws.
