Explanatory Notes

The Company determined, during the preparation of the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, that it failed to recognize exploration expenses and a stock liability of $1,432,805 pertaining to the purchase of technical data for Centenario, La Palma and La Verde mining concessions. Per the purchase agreements, the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00 per share of common stock. At the time of issuance, the Company’s common stock was fair market valued at $0.85 per share. This resulted in the understatement of exploration expenses of $425,490 and $1,432,805 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

In March 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to Centenario from the former owner in consideration for 416,100 shares of the Company’s common stock and $100,000 cash. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company’s common stock which the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $932,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 416,100 shares of common stock valued at $353,685 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell, shown in the balance sheet as technical data purchased with common stock.

In March 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to the La Palma from the former owner for 460,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company’s common stock which the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $920,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 460,000 shares of common stock valued at $391,000 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell, shown in the balance sheet as technical data purchased with common stock.

In April 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to the La Verde from the former owner for 370,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company’s common stock and the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $740,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 370,000 shares of common stock valued at $314,500 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell, shown in the balance sheet as technical data purchased with common stock.

(“ACM”), which was established in December 2006 and operates in México.  Adit Resources Corp. (“Adit”) was organized in June 2009 and ACM was purchased in June 2009.  The Company currently has limited operations and, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) Development Stage Entities Topic, is considered an Exploration Stage Company.

Tara Minerals Corp. is a subsidiary of Tara Gold Resources Corp. (“Tara Gold” or the “Company’s Parent).

Unless otherwise indicated, all references to the Company include the operations of its subsidiaries, and all references to Adit include the operation of its subsidiary.

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related footnote information are unaudited.  In the opinion of management, these financials statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, AMM, Adit and ACM. All amounts are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The reporting currency of the Company and Adit is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of AMM and ACM is the Mexican peso. As a result, the financial statements of the subsidiaries have been re-measured from Mexican pesos into U.S. dollars using (i) current exchange rates for monetary asset and liability accounts, (ii) historical exchange rates for nonmonetary asset and liability accounts, (iii) historical exchange rates for revenues and expenses associated with nonmonetary assets and liabilities and (iv) the weighted average exchange rate of the reporting period for all other revenues and expenses. In addition, foreign currency transaction gains and losses resulting from U.S. dollar denominated transactions are eliminated. The resulting re-measurement gain or loss is recorded as other comprehensive loss.

The financial statements of the Mexican subsidiaries should not be construed as representations that Mexican pesos have been, could have been or may in the future be converted into U.S. dollars at such rates or any other rates.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are:

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recoverable Value-Added Taxes (IVA) and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Each period receivables are reviewed for collectability.  When a receivable is determined to not be collectable, the Company allows for the receivable until the Company is either assured of collection or assured that a write off is necessary.  The Company has recorded an allowance of $1,358,736 and $1,366,533 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, for its receivables for IVA taxes paid by the Company’s Mexican subsidiaries based upon the determination that the Mexican government may not pay the complete refund of these taxes.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications, which have no effect on net loss, have been made in the prior period financial statements to conform to the current presentation.

Purchase of Technical Data

Technical data, including engineering reports, maps, assessment reports, exploration samples certificates, surveys, environmental studies and other miscellaneous information, may be purchased for our mining concessions. When purchased for concessions without proven reserves the cost is considered research and development pertaining to a developing mine and in accordance with the Research and Development (R&D) Topic of the FASB ASC and is expensed when incurred.

Financial Instruments

The Company periodically enters into financial instruments. Upon entry, each instrument is reviewed for debt or equity treatment. In the event that the debt or equity treatment is not readily apparent, FASB 480-10-S99 is consulted for temporary treatment, once a triggering event of any such instruments happen that remove the temporary element the Company appropriately reclassifies the instrument to debt or equity.

Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Adopted

In October 2009, the FASB issued changes to revenue recognition for multiple-deliverable arrangements. These changes require separation of consideration received in such arrangements by establishing a selling price hierarchy (not the same as fair value) for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which will be based on available information in the following order: vendor-specific objective evidence, third-party evidence, or estimated selling price; eliminate the residual method of allocation and require that the consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any discount in the arrangement to each deliverable on the basis of each deliverable’s selling price; require that a vendor determine its best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis; and expand the disclosures related to multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. These changes become effective on January 1, 2011. The Company has determined that the adoption of these changes will not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements, as the Company does not currently have any such arrangements with its customers.

Issued

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance will become effective for the Company with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2011. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

Note 2.  Restatement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011

The financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2010 have been corrected for the following matters. The Company determined, during the preparation of the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, that it failed to recognize exploration expenses and a stock liability of $1,432,805 pertaining to the purchase of technical data for Centenario, La Palma and La Verde mining concessions. Per the purchase agreements, the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00 per share of common stock. At the time of issuance, the Company’s common stock was fair market valued at $0.85 per share. This resulted in the understatement of exploration expenses of $425,490 and $1,432,805 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

In March 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to Centenario from the former owner in consideration for 416,100 shares of the Company’s common stock and $100,000 cash. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company’s common stock which the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $932,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 416,100 shares of common stock valued at $353,685 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell, shown in the balance sheet as technical data purchased with common stock.

In March 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to the La Palma from the former owner for 460,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company’s common stock which the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $920,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 460,000 shares of common stock valued at $391,000 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell, shown in the balance sheet as technical data purchased with common stock.

In April 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to the La Verde from the former owner for 370,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company’s common stock and the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $740,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 370,000 shares of common stock valued at $314,500 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell, shown in the balance sheet as technical data purchased with common stock.

Note 4. Other assets, current and non-current

In September 2010, Tara Minerals signed an agreement to purchase three real estate properties for a price of $1,000,000. In order to hold these properties Tara Minerals made a cash deposit of $60,000. Tara Minerals is obligated to pay all the expenses, fees and general expenditures relating to the sale, which expenses, up to a maximum of $500,000, which are deductible from the sales price.  In March 2011, Tara Minerals received notification from Pacemaker Silver Mining S.A. de C.V. a wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary of El Tigre, indicating that they also had surface rights related to being able to work claims they held mining rights too. Although this is does not effect our specific right to the tailing piles, there could be an issue as to who would have specific areas and specific times.   Until the difference can be determined, the deposit has been expensed in 2011.

In May 2011, the Company paid $66,667 towards a $100,000 advanced to the Iron Ore Project Vendor, against future royalty payments (See Note 7).

Note 9. Stock Compensation

In January 2010, under its Incentive Stock Option Plan the Company granted two of its officers’ options for the purchase of 750,000 shares of common stock.

The options expire at various dates beginning May 2013.  In accordance with the Stock Compensation Topic, FASB ASC 718-20-35, the Company has analyzed the cancellation of the award accompanied by the concurrent grant of a replacement award and determined that there was no further incremental compensation cost. As of June 30, 2011 options that vested in 2011 associated with this transaction were valued at $493,384.

In September 2010, the Company granted options for 200,000 shares of common stock to an unrelated third party for investor relations services. The options have an exercise price of $1.00 per share, vest between September 2010 and March 2011 and expire two years from the date of vesting. As of June 30, 2011 options that vested in 2011 were valued at $36,353.

Each unit consisted of one share of the Company’s common stock and one warrant.  Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $1.00 per share at any time on or before May 1st, 2012.

The fair value of each option award discussed above is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on volatilities from the Company’s traded common stock. The expected term of options granted is estimated at half of the contractual term as noted in the individual option agreements and represents the period of time that management anticipates option granted are expected to be outstanding.  The risk-free rate for the periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury bond rate in effect at the time of grant for bonds with maturity dates at the estimated term of the options.

Note 10.    Non-controlling Interest

On January 28, 2011, Adit, sold 500,000 units at a price of $1.00 per unit to Yamana Gold Inc.  Each unit consisted of one share of Adit’s common stock and one half warrant. Each full warrant entitles Yamana to purchase one share of Adit’s common stock at a price of $1.50 per share at any time on or before January 28, 2014.

In connection with the sale of the units, Adit also signed a letter of intent that grants Yamana an option to acquire up to a 70% interest in Adit’s Picacho gold/silver project.  A definitive agreement is expected to be completed August, 2011.  Upon completion of the definitive agreement, Adit will sell an additional 2,500,000 units to Yamana at a price of $1.00 per unit. The units will be identical to the units sold on January 28, 2011.  From the $3,000,000 received from Yamana, Adit will be required to spend $2,000,000 in exploration work on the Picacho project within 12 months of signing the definitive agreement.  

Yamana can earn a 51% interest in the project by spending an additional $5,000,000 on the project within 30 months of the date of the definitive agreement and paying Adit an additional $1,000,000. Yamana can increase its interest to 70% by spending an additional $9,000,000 on the project and paying Adit an additional $2,000,000.

Note 12. Subsequent Events

Management evaluated all activity of the Company through August 15, 2011 (the issue date of the Financial Statements) and concluded the following disclosures are pertinent:

a. In August 8, 2011 the Company entered into an agreement with Carnegie Mining and Exploration, Inc. which provides Carnegie with the option to earn up to a 50% interest in the Company’s Don Roman and all of the Company’s iron ore projects located in Mexico, including the Company’s Tania Iron Ore project.

As consideration for the option, Carnegie paid $100,000 to the Company and spent $150,000 toward bringing the Don Roman mine back into production.

In order to earn a 30% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie, no later than:

· December 9, 2011, must spend $2,000,000 on the Don Roman project and achieve a Production Rate of at least 120 tones of ore throughput per day, and

· No later than August 8, 2012, must spend $6,000,000 on the Don Roman project and achieve a Production Rate of at least 360 tones of ore throughput per day.

If Carnegie is able to achieve the required Production Rates with the expenditure of less than $2,000,000 or $6,000,000 (as the case may be) the amounts not spent by Carnegie, may, at Carnegie’s option, be paid to Tara Minerals or used to acquire additional mining concessions.

22

In order to earn a 50% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie, no later than August 8, 2013, must spend at least $5,000,000 on the Don Roman project and achieve and maintain a Production Rate of at least 600 tones of ore per day.

For purposes of the agreement between the Company and Carnegie, the term Production Rate means the tones which are being processed by the mill at the Don Roman site.

In Mexico, weight is denominated in tones. One tone is equal to 2,200 pounds.

If Carnegie spends at least $2,000,000 on the Don Roman project, Carnegie will be entitled to 50% of the net income from the Don Roman mine until Carnegie earns, or fails to earn, its 30% interest in the Don Roman project. If Carnegie fails to earn its 30% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie’s rights to any income from the Don Roman mine will terminate. If Carnegie earns it’s 30% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie will continue to be entitled to a 50% interest in the net income from Don Roman mine until Carnegie earns, or fails to earn its 50% interest in the Don Roman project. If Carnegie fails to earn its 50% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie will be entitled to a 30% interest in the net income from the Don Roman mine.  If Carnegie earns its 50% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie will continue to be entitled to a 50% interest in the net income from Don Roman mine.

Carnegie may earn a 50% interest in the Company’s iron ore projects in Mexico, including the Company’s Tania Iron Ore project, by spending $1,000,000 toward the projects by November 6, 2011. Any amounts spent by Carnegie on the iron ore projects will be credited toward the amount Carnegie is required to spend to obtain a 30% interest in the Don Roman project. If Carnegie spends the $1,000,000, but does not elect to acquire a 50% in the iron ore projects, then Tara Minerals will issue to Carnegie 1,000,000 shares of Tara Minerals common stock.

If Carnegie elects to earn its 50% interest in the iron ore projects, then Carnegie, if it spends at least $8,000,000 on the Don Roman project, will be entitled to 50% of the net income from the iron ore projects until Carnegie earns, or fails to earn, its 30% interest in the Don Roman project. If Carnegie fails to earn its 30% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie’s rights to any income from the iron ore projects will terminate. If Carnegie earns it’s 30% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie will continue to be entitled to a 50% interest in the net income from the Company’s iron ore projects regardless of whether Carnegie earns, or fails to earn, its 50% interest in the Don Roman project.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

Tara Minerals was incorporated on May 12, 2006.  During the period from its incorporation through June 30, 2011 Tara Minerals generated revenue of $160,421 and incurred expenses of $658,007 in cost of sales; $5,294,668 in exploration expenses and $22,028,543 in operating and general administration expenses. Included in operating and general and administrative expenses is a non-cash charge of $8,464,942 pertaining to the issuance of stock options and bonus plans.

Material changes of certain items in Tara Minerals’ Statement of Operation for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period last year, are discussed below.

Three Months Ended	June 30, 2011			June 30, 2010
	(Restated)
Revenue	$	-		$	37,775
Cost of revenue		-			-
Exploration expenses		890,640			292,679
Operating, general and administrative expenses		960,717			2,570,705
Net operating loss	$	(1,851,357	)	$	(2,825,609	)

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, exploration expenses increased from the prior period in 2010 due to beginning of exploration activities at the Tania Iron Ore project. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, exploration expenses consisted of approximately $740,000 for the purchase of technical data for the La Verde property part of Don Roman Groupings, $1,000 for geological consulting, assaying, and field supplies for the Picacho Groupings, and $150,000 for mine and smelting operations and other various mine expenses for the Don Roman Groupings and Tania Project. As of June 30, 2010, exploration expenses consisted of approximately $39,000 for geological consulting, assaying, and field supplies for the Picacho Groupings, $254,000 for mine and smelting operations and other various mine expenses for the Don Roman Groupings.

Material changes of certain items in Tara Minerals’ operating, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period last year, are discussed below.

Three Months Ended	June 30, 2011		June 30, 2010
Bad debt expense	$	97,921	$	422,319
Depreciation expense		67,020		39,674
Investor relations expense		35,310		1,388,770
Compensation, officer employment contracts and bonuses		455,244		86,116
Professional fees		217,511		301,270
Repair and maintenance		2,739		19,832
Rent and rental of equipment		12,460		4,360

Bad debt expense decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2011 due to lower transaction volume, therefore the allowance and bad debt calculation was lower.  Depreciation expense increased as more plant and equipment was in service during the three months ended June 30, 2011 than 2010. The decrease in investor relations expense is due to fewer consultants needed, during 2010 the Company was expecting to start production and consultants were hired to handle investor relations and applied to enter Amex, at the time the Company decided not to go forward. During the three months ended June 30, 2011 investor relations expenses consisted of $16,500 paid with common stock and $14,250 in cash to consultants. During the three months ended June 30, 2010 investor relations expenses consisted 624,734 common shares issued for $1,193,550 and  $152,551 in cash for investor relations at the Tara Minerals level. During the three months ended June 30, 2011 compensation, officer employment contracts and bonuses consisted of options with a value of $311,000, and officers’ compensation of $144,000. As of June 30, 2010 compensation, officer employment contracts and bonuses consisted of $86,000. Professional fees decreased $108,000 in 2011 because fewer professionals and consultants were needed to start operations at the Don Roman Groupings in 2010. Repairs and maintenance decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2011 because the plant at Choix stopped operating and during 2010 the company was working on a program to track inventory and parts and is not being used in 2011. Rent and rental equipment increased during the three months ended June 30, 2011 due to rental of apartments in Manzanillo, Colima, where the Iron Ore Project is located at, for personnel and officers, the Company did not incurred in any rental of equipment expenses.

Material changes of certain items in Tara Minerals’ Statement of Operation for the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period last year, are discussed below.

Six Months Ended	June 30, 2011			June 30, 2010

Net operating loss	$	(4,477,162	)	$	(11,536,629	)

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, Tara Minerals had no revenue and exploration expenses declined due to activity ceasing at the Don Roman mine in the fourth quarter of 2010. For the six months June 30, 2011, exploration expenses consisted of approximately $2,592,000 for the purchase of technical data for the Centenario (part of the Don Roman Groupings), La Verde and La Palma properties (part of the Don Roman Groupings), $16,000 for geological consulting, assaying, and field supplies for the Picacho Groupings, and $213,000 for mine and smelting operations and other various mine expenses for the Don Roman Groupings and Tania Project.  As of June 30, 2010, exploration expenses consisted of approximately $1,224,000 for the purchase of technical data for the Picacho Groupings, $80,000 for geological consulting, assaying, and field supplies for the Picacho Groupings, $584,000 for mine and smelting operations and other various mine expenses for the Don Roman Groupings.

Material changes of certain items in Tara Minerals’ operating, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period last year, are discussed below.

Six Months Ended	June 30, 2011			June 30, 2010

Repairs and maintenance		10,946			35,292
Rent and rental of equipment		52,989			9,263

Bad debt expense decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2011 due to the renegotiation of an agreement which included IVA and caused an adjustment of IVA Receivables, allowance and bad debt expense. Depreciation expense increased as more plant and equipment was in service during the six months ended June 30, 2011 than 2010. The decrease in investor relations expense is due to fewer consultants needed, during 2010 the Company was expecting to start production and consultants were hired to handle investor relations and applied to enter Amex, at the time the Company decided not to go forward. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 Investor relations expenses consisted of $36,000 in options, $16,500 paid with common stock and $31,000 in cash to consultants.

Professional fees decreased $133,000 2011 because fewer professionals and consultants were needed to start operations at the Don Roman Groupings in 2010. Repairs and maintenance decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2011 because the plant at Choix stopped operating; therefore the Company spent less on repairs and maintenance of machinery and other plant and mining equipment.

Tara Minerals does not know of any trends, events or uncertainties that have had, or are reasonably expected to have, a material impact on its sales, revenues or income from continuing operations, or liquidity and capital resources.

Tara Minerals anticipates that its capital requirements during the twelve months ending August 15, 2012 will be:

Exploration and Development – Don Roman Groupings	$	1,500,000
Exploration and Development -  Picacho Groupings		2,500,000
Exploration and Development – Tania Iron Ore Project		750,000
Property taxes		95,000
General and administrative expenses		400,000
Total	$	5,245,000

Tara Minerals will need to obtain additional capital if it is unable to generate sufficient cash from its operations or find joint venture partners to fund all or part of its exploration and development costs.

In 2011, Tara Minerals has sought to expand and advance the Don Roman Groupings project by acquiring additional highly prospective mineral claims; and by opening up the project to numerous parties that have expressed an interest in the possibility of becoming an operating partner in the further development of the Don Roman Groupings.  In April 2011, the Company signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) that would provide the capital and expertise to restart the operations at Don Roman and explore the full potential of the land package we have assembled.

In August, a Definitive Agreement was signed that included an option for Carnegie mining to earn a 50% interest in the Don Roman Groupings and an additional option to earn an interest in all Iron Ore properties located in Mexico, which Tara Minerals controls or may control through this Joint Venture. The company believes this relationship to be strategic and should serve to develop Don Roman along with our Iron Ore prospects in an aggressive manor. Development aimed at near term production and cash flow remains the Joint Venture’s objective, with expansion of production accomplished in Phases. It will also be a priority of the Joint Venture to begin to prove our resources under professional guide lines such as NI43-101 standards.

26

As of August 15, 2011 Tara Minerals was reviewing the Pirita property for continued inclusion as part of the Company’s mining property portfolio.  No payments toward this property have been made in 2011 and the Company may decide to terminate the purchase agreement and return the property due to its current focus as described above.

Tara Minerals’ future plans will be dependent upon the amount of capital available to Tara Minerals, the amount of cash provided by its operations, and the extent to which Tara Minerals is able to have joint venture partners pay the costs of exploring and developing its mining properties.

Tara Minerals does not have any commitments or arrangements from any person to provide Tara Minerals with any additional capital.  If additional financing is not available when needed, Tara Minerals may continue to operate in its present mode or Tara Minerals may need to cease operations.  Tara Minerals does not have any plans, arrangements or agreements to sell its assets or to merge with another entity.

See Note 1 to the financial statements included as part of this report for a description of Tara Minerals’ accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements.

ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Francis Richard Biscan, Jr., the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Lynda R. Keeton-Cardno, the Company’s Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report, and in their opinion the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective due to the ineffective review of three specific contract terms resulting in the amendment of this report. The Company stressed the importance of contract review within the company.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Note 4. Other assets, current and non-current

In September 2010, Tara Minerals signed an agreement to purchase three real estate properties for a price of $1,000,000. In order to hold these properties Tara Minerals made a cash deposit of $60,000. Tara Minerals is obligated to pay all the expenses, fees and general expenditures relating to the sale, which expenses, up to a maximum of $500,000, which are deductible from the sales price.  In March 2011, Tara Minerals received notification from Pacemaker Silver Mining S.A. de C.V. a wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary of El Tigre, indicating that they also had surface rights related to being able to work claims they held mining rights too. Although this is does not effect our specific right to the tailing piles, there could be an issue as to who would have specific areas and specific times.   Until the difference can be determined, the deposit has been expensed in 2011.

In May 2011, the Company paid $66,667 towards a $100,000 advanced to the Iron Ore Project Vendor, against future royalty payments (See Note 7).

In May 2011, the Company advanced $175,000 to a subcontractor for improvements needed at the Iron Ore Project site; the advance will be expensed over a six-month period beginning in July 2011.

Pilar, Don Ramon, Las Nuvias, Centenario, La Palma and La Verde properties are geographically located in Mexico and are known as the Don Roman Groupings.

The Picacho and Picacho Fractions properties are geographically located in Mexico and are known as the Picacho Groupings.

a. In November 2008, the Company acquired eight mining concessions known as "Centenario" from an independent third party. The properties approximate 5,400 hectares and were purchased for $1,894,050, including $247,050 in value added taxes.

In June 2009, the Company and the note holder modified the agreement to 1) revalue the entire Centenario concession to $2,000,000, 2) apply $127,000 toward the purchase price which had already been paid and recorded as a mining deposit, and 3) apply $197,956 toward the new price of the concession which was originally paid by another subsidiary of the Company's Parent.  These changes resulted in the following 1) additional debt of $28,044 plus related value added tax for these concessions, 2) the reduction of the amount of the mining deposit of $127,000, 3) the expense of $6,000 that AMM also paid but which was not included in the revaluation of the concession, and 4) the increase in Due to Related Party of $197,956 plus related value added tax. The effective amount financed in relation to this concession is $1,675,044 plus $251,257 of value added tax.

In March 2011, the Company and the note holder agreed to reduce the purchase price of the Centenario concession to $635,571. These changes resulted in the following: 1) decrease debt by $1,310,974; and 2) decrease recoverable value-added taxes by $218,309. At March 31, 2011 the amended purchase price of $635,571 was paid in full.

The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company's common stock and the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $932,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 416,100 shares of common stock valued at $353,685 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell.

The properties approximate 2,104 hectares, and were purchased for a total of $92,800, including $12,800 in value added taxes. The Company paid $50,000 as a deposit for the concession mining deposit which was applied to the effective price of the property.  The remaining balance of $42,800 was due and paid during the second quarter of 2011. The six concessions acquired were La Palma, Choix, El Pino, La Verde 3, La Verde 4 and La Verde 6.

In March 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to the La Palma from the former owner for 460,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company's common stock and the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $920,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 460,000 shares of common stock valued at $391,000 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell.

La Palma and La Verde properties are part of the "Don Roman Groupings".

The properties approximate 127 hectares, and were purchased for a total of $69,600, including $9,600 in value added taxes. AMM paid $30,000 as a deposit for the concession mining deposit which was applied to the effective price of the property and the remaining balance was paid during the second quarter of 2011. The two concessions acquired were La Verde 5 and Mina El Rosario.

In April 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to the La Verde from the former owner for 370,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company's common stock and the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $740,000.

Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Note 1.       Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of business and principles of consolidation:

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Tara Minerals Corp. (the "Company") should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Significant accounting policies disclosed therein have not changed, except as noted below.

The Company was organized May 12, 2006 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company currently is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral resource properties in the United States of America and Mexico.  The Company owns 99.9% of the common stock of American Metal Mining, S.A. de C.V. ("AMM"), which was established in December 2006 and operates in México. The Company also owns 87% of the common stock of Adit Resources Corp., which in turns owns 99.9% of American Copper Mining, S.A. de C.V. ("ACM"), which was established in December 2006 and operates in México.  Adit Resources Corp. ("Adit") was organized in June 2009 and ACM was purchased in June 2009.  The Company currently has limited operations and, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("FASB ASC") Development Stage Entities Topic, is considered an Exploration Stage Company.

Tara Minerals Corp. is a subsidiary of Tara Gold Resources Corp. ("Tara Gold" or the "Company's Parent).

Unless otherwise indicated, all references to the Company include the operations of its subsidiaries, and all references to Adit include the operation of its subsidiary.

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related footnote information are unaudited.  In the opinion of management, these financials statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, AMM, Adit and ACM. All amounts are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The reporting currency of the Company and Adit is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of AMM and ACM is the Mexican peso. As a result, the financial statements of the subsidiaries have been re-measured from Mexican pesos into U.S. dollars using (i) current exchange rates for monetary asset and liability accounts, (ii) historical exchange rates for nonmonetary asset and liability accounts, (iii) historical exchange rates for revenues and expenses associated with nonmonetary assets and liabilities and (iv) the weighted average exchange rate of the reporting period for all other revenues and expenses. In addition, foreign currency transaction gains and losses resulting from U.S. dollar denominated transactions are eliminated. The resulting re-measurement gain or loss is recorded as other comprehensive loss.

The financial statements of the Mexican subsidiaries should not be construed as representations that Mexican pesos have been, could have been or may in the future be converted into U.S. dollars at such rates or any other rates.

Relevant exchange rates used in the preparation of the financial statements for the subsidiary are as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  Mexican pesos per one U.S. dollar.

	June 30, 2011
Current exchange rate	Ps.	11.7748
Weighted average exchange rate for the six months ended	Ps.	11.9044

The Company's significant accounting policies are:

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recoverable Value-Added Taxes (IVA) and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Each period receivables are reviewed for collectability.  When a receivable is determined to not be collectable, the Company allows for the receivable until the Company is either assured of collection or assured that a write off is necessary.  The Company has recorded an allowance of $1,358,736 and $1,366,533 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, for its receivables for IVA taxes paid by the Company's Mexican subsidiaries based upon the determination that the Mexican government may not pay the complete refund of these taxes.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications, which have no effect on net loss, have been made in the prior period financial statements to conform to the current presentation.

Purchase of Technical Data

Technical data, including engineering reports, maps, assessment reports, exploration samples certificates, surveys, environmental studies and other miscellaneous information, may be purchased for our mining concessions. When purchased for concessions without proven reserves the cost is considered research and development pertaining to a developing mine and in accordance with the Research and Development (R&D) Topic of the FASB ASC and is expensed when incurred.

Financial Instruments

The Company periodically enters into financial instruments. Upon entry, each instrument is reviewed for debt or equity treatment. In the event that the debt or equity treatment is not readily apparent, FASB 480-10-S99 is consulted for temporary treatment, once a triggering event of any such instruments happen that remove the temporary element the Company appropriately reclassifies the instrument to debt or equity.

Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Adopted

In October 2009, the FASB issued changes to revenue recognition for multiple-deliverable arrangements. These changes require separation of consideration received in such arrangements by establishing a selling price hierarchy (not the same as fair value) for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which will be based on available information in the following order: vendor-specific objective evidence, third-party evidence, or estimated selling price; eliminate the residual method of allocation and require that the consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any discount in the arrangement to each deliverable on the basis of each deliverable's selling price; require that a vendor determine its best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis; and expand the disclosures related to multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. These changes become effective on January 1, 2011. The Company has determined that the adoption of these changes will not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements, as the Company does not currently have any such arrangements with its customers.

Issued

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance will become effective for the Company with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2011. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

Restatement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011

Restatement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 [Abstract]

Restatement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011

Note 2. Restatement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011

The financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2010 have been corrected for the following matters. The Company determined, during the preparation of the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, that it failed to recognize exploration expenses and a stock liability of $1,432,805 pertaining to the purchase of technical data for Centenario, La Palma and La Verde mining concessions. Per the purchase agreements, the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00 per share of common stock. At the time of issuance, the Company's common stock was fair market valued at $0.85 per share.

Management evaluated all activity of the Company through August 15, 2011 (the issue date of the Financial Statements) and concluded the following disclosures are pertinent:

a. In August 8, 2011 the Company entered into an agreement with Carnegie Mining and Exploration, Inc. which provides Carnegie with the option to earn up to a 50% interest in the Company's Don Roman and all of the Company's iron ore projects located in Mexico, including the Company's Tania Iron Ore project.

As consideration for the option, Carnegie paid $100,000 to the Company and spent $150,000 toward bringing the Don Roman mine back into production.

In order to earn a 30% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie, no later than:

· December 9, 2011, must spend $2,000,000 on the Don Roman project and achieve a Production Rate of at least 120 tones of ore throughput per day, and

· No later than August 8, 2012, must spend $6,000,000 on the Don Roman project and achieve a Production Rate of at least 360 tones of ore throughput per day.

If Carnegie is able to achieve the required Production Rates with the expenditure of less than $2,000,000 or $6,000,000 (as the case may be) the amounts not spent by Carnegie, may, at Carnegie's option, be paid to Tara Minerals or used to acquire additional mining concessions.

In order to earn a 50% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie, no later than August 8, 2013, must spend at least $5,000,000 on the Don Roman project and achieve and maintain a Production Rate of at least 600 tones of ore per day.

For purposes of the agreement between the Company and Carnegie, the term Production Rate means the tones which are being processed by the mill at the Don Roman site.

In Mexico, weight is denominated in tones. One tone is equal to 2,200 pounds.

If Carnegie spends at least $2,000,000 on the Don Roman project, Carnegie will be entitled to 50% of the net income from the Don Roman mine until Carnegie earns, or fails to earn, its 30% interest in the Don Roman project. If Carnegie fails to earn its 30% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie's rights to any income from the Don Roman mine will terminate. If Carnegie earns it's 30% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie will continue to be entitled to a 50% interest in the net income from Don Roman mine until Carnegie earns, or fails to earn its 50% interest in the Don Roman project. If Carnegie fails to earn its 50% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie will be entitled to a 30% interest in the net income from the Don Roman mine.  If Carnegie earns its 50% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie will continue to be entitled to a 50% interest in the net income from Don Roman mine.

Carnegie may earn a 50% interest in the Company's iron ore projects in Mexico, including the Company's Tania Iron Ore project, by spending $1,000,000 toward the projects by November 6, 2011. Any amounts spent by Carnegie on the iron ore projects will be credited toward the amount Carnegie is required to spend to obtain a 30% interest in the Don Roman project. If Carnegie spends the $1,000,000, but does not elect to acquire a 50% in the iron ore projects, then Tara Minerals will issue to Carnegie 1,000,000 shares of Tara Minerals common stock.

If Carnegie elects to earn its 50% interest in the iron ore projects, then Carnegie, if it spends at least $8,000,000 on the Don Roman project, will be entitled to 50% of the net income from the iron ore projects until Carnegie earns, or fails to earn, its 30% interest in the Don Roman project. If Carnegie fails to earn its 30% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie's rights to any income from the iron ore projects will terminate. If Carnegie earns it's 30% interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie will continue to be entitled to a 50% interest in the net income from the Company's iron ore projects regardless of whether Carnegie earns, or fails to earn, its 50% interest in the Don Roman project.

Explanatory Notes

The Company determined, during the preparation of the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, that it failed to recognize exploration expenses and a stock liability of $1,432,805 pertaining to the purchase of technical data for Centenario, La Palma and La Verde mining concessions. Per the purchase agreements, the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00 per share of common stock. At the time of issuance, the Company's common stock was fair market valued at $0.85 per share. This resulted in the understatement of exploration expenses of $425,490 and $1,432,805 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

In March 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to Centenario from the former owner in consideration for 416,100 shares of the Company's common stock and $100,000 cash. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company's common stock which the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $932,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 416,100 shares of common stock valued at $353,685 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell, shown in the balance sheet as technical data purchased with common stock.

In March 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to the La Palma from the former owner for 460,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company's common stock which the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $920,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 460,000 shares of common stock valued at $391,000 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell, shown in the balance sheet as technical data purchased with common stock.

In April 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to the La Verde from the former owner for 370,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for the Company's common stock and the Company guaranteed the stock price of $2.00.  As such, the shares have been recognized at the full contract amount of $740,000. At April 2011, the Company issued 370,000 shares of common stock valued at $314,500 and will settle the remaining shares at the time that the former owner exercises its right to sell, shown in the balance sheet as technical data purchased with common stock.

Iron Ore Properties and Related Financial Instrument

Note 7. Iron Ore Project and Related Financial Instrument

In May 2011, the Company reached an agreement for the right to mine the 3,233 hectare Tania Iron Ore project located in Manzanillo, State of Colima, Mexico. The Company has the right to remove 6 million tonnes of salable concentrate from the property, with perpetual renewal rights, extending through the life of the property. The Company will pay the vendor $6 per salable tonne for the first 500,000 tonnes removed from the property and $7 per tonne thereafter. A total of $100,000 will be advanced to the vendor against future royalty payments. As of June 30, 2011 the Company advanced $66,667.

The Company raised $750,000 through a financial instrument to fund the project. A portion of the funds will be used to secure appropriate environmental permits, export permits, and recovery process engineering. The financial instrument has no repayment requirement, except if the Iron Ore Project generates revenue, interest rate or term. As the Company's common stock has not been issued nor is this a debt instrument, in accordance with our accounting policy we have treated this as temporary financing until such time as something changes requiring debt or permanent equity treatment. The beneficial conversion feature calculated for the conversion feature of this instrument is $180,000, once a triggering event takes place the beneficial conversion feature accounting will follow the treatment of debt or equity.

The units will be identical to the units sold on January 28, 2011.  From the $3,000,000 received from Yamana, Adit will be required to spend $2,000,000 in exploration work on the Picacho project within 12 months of signing the definitive agreement.  

Yamana can earn a 51% interest in the project by spending an additional $5,000,000 on the project within 30 months of the date of the definitive agreement and paying Adit an additional $1,000,000. Yamana can increase its interest to 70% by spending an additional $9,000,000 on the project and paying Adit an additional $2,000,000.

Options and Warrants

Note 9. Stock Compensation

In January 2010, under its Incentive Stock Option Plan the Company granted two of its officers' options for the purchase of 750,000 shares of common stock. In May 2011, the options were cancelled and the Company concurrently granted new Incentive Stock Options to the officers; under this new grant the officers have the option to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock, exercisable at a price of $0.58 per share and vest at various dates until May 2013. The options expire at various dates beginning May 2013.  In accordance with the Stock Compensation Topic, FASB ASC 718-20-35, the Company has analyzed the cancellation of the award accompanied by the concurrent grant of a replacement award and determined that there was no further incremental compensation cost. As of June 30, 2011 options that vested in 2011 associated with this transaction were valued at $493,384.

In September 2010, the Company granted options for 200,000 shares of common stock to an unrelated third party for investor relations services. The options have an exercise price of $1.00 per share, vest between September 2010 and March 2011 and expire two years from the date of vesting. As of June 30, 2011 options that vested in 2011 were valued at $36,353.

In May 2011, the Company sold, in a private offering of 1,643,334 units for $493,000 in cash, or $0.30 per unit. Each unit consisted of one share of the Company's common stock and one warrant.  Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company's common stock at a price of $1.00 per share at any time on or before May 1st, 2012.

The fair value of each option award discussed above is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on volatilities from the Company's traded common stock. The expected term of options granted is estimated at half of the contractual term as noted in the individual option agreements and represents the period of time that management anticipates option granted are expected to be outstanding.  The risk-free rate for the periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury bond rate in effect at the time of grant for bonds with maturity dates at the estimated term of the options.

	2011		2010
Expected volatility		163.11%		208.37% - 319.79%
Weighted-average volatility		163.11%		159.17%
Expected dividends		0		0
Expected term (in years)		2.00		0.75 - 4.50
Risk-free rate		0.58%		0.30% - 2.37%
