Animas Renegotiates Property Agreements, Sells Bacanuchi Prospect, and Reduces Non Essential Land Holding

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - May 7, 2009) - Animas Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:ANI) ("Animas" or the "Company") is pleased to report our continuing efforts to reduce costs and focus on the development and exploration activities in the Santa Teresa District.

Renegotiation of Lopez/Limon Agreement

Animas has signed an amendment to the option to purchase agreement with the owners of the Lopez-Limon concessions, which reduces the option payments for 2009 from US$400,000 to US$60,000 and extends the balance of payments to December 2011 by paying an additional US$150,000 in the final year.

Renegotiation of MetalQuest Minerals Inc. ("MetalQuest") Agreement

The Company has re-negotiated the MetalQuest agreement in April 2009 to structure a more beneficial arrangement for the Company and its shareholders.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

In order to postpone the payments to MetalQuest, the Company will issue to MetalQuest 254,454 common shares upon receiving the approval from the TSX Venture Exchange.

In addition, subject to the TSX Venture Exchange's approval, the future payments in 2010 and 2011 will also have a minimum price and a maximum price of $0.50 and $1.00, respectively, for the common shares issued if the Company chooses to pay in common shares.

Greg McKelvey, President of Animas, commented, "I am pleased to see all of our partners showing their long term commitment to the district by allowing Animas to direct more money into exploration efforts in the district this year. The Company will shortly release detailed drill, exploration, and development plans for the remainder of 2009 in conjunction with the NI 43-101 compliant geological report."

Sale of Bacanuchi

The Company has sold its Bacanuchi property to a private company for reimbursement of the Company's payment of the mining taxes in 2009. US$1 million will also be paid to Animas upon a feasibility being completed and a 5% NPI will be retained by Animas.

Reduction in land holding costs

The Company has also dropped non-essential land parcels along the western edge of the land holdings after field reviews suggested limited potential for extensions of gold mineralization known at Santa Gertrudis. Dropping these non-essential land parcels saves the Company thousands of dollars each year that can be focused towards drilling expenditures.

Project generation, field mapping, and target identification are anticipated to be complete in the second quarter with a focused drilling program to follow.
