AMAZON GOLDSANDS LTD. (F/K/A FINMETAL MINING LTD.) ANNOUNCES NAME TICKER SYMBOL CHANGE TO “AZNG”

Vancouver, British Columbia. – (MARKET WIRE) – June 6, 2008– Finmetal Mining Ltd. (OTCBB:FNMM) today announced that it has effected a 1-for-20 reverse split of its Common Stock as approved by its Board of Directors on May 22, 2008 and a change in name to Amazon Goldsands Ltd. (“Amazon”).  Upon market open on Monday, June 9, 2008, Amazon’s common stock will be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board on a split-adjusted basis under the new trading symbol “AZNG” (OTCBB:AZNG).

As a result of the reverse stock split, each 20 shares of issued and outstanding common stock as of today’s close of trading has been automatically converted into one share of split-adjusted common stock.  No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the reverse split.  Shareholders who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional post-split share will receive in lieu thereof one whole post-split share.

Shareholders are not required to take any action to effect the conversion of their shares.  The presently issued certificates shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of split-adjusted shares that result from the reverse split.  Shareholders of record as of the close of today’s trading may, but are not required to, contact Interwest Transfer Co. Inc., Amazon’s transfer agent, to exchange the certificates originally representing such shareholder’s shares of pre-split common stock for new certificates representing the number of whole shares of post-split common stock into which the shares have been converted.  There may be a fee for such new certificates.
