TARA MINERALS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(A Subsidiary of Tara Gold Resources Corp.)

(An Exploration Stage Company)

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

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, 2011. Significant accounting policies disclosed therein have not changed, except as noted below.

Tara Minerals owns 99.9% of the common stock of American Metal Mining S.A. de C.V. (“AMM”), a Mexican corporation.  Tara Minerals also owns 87% of the common stock of Adit Resources Corp. (“Adit”). Tara Minerals’ operations in Mexico are conducted through AMM since Mexican law provides that only Mexican corporations are allowed to own mining properties.  American Metal Mining’s primary focus is on industrial minerals, e.g. iron, copper and zinc.

On April 4, 2012 Adit sold its subsidiary American Copper Mining S.A. de C.V. (“ACM”) to Yamana Mexico Holdings B.V. (“Yamana”). ACM’s primary asset was the Picacho groupings.

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.

In this filing references to "Company," "we," "our," and/or "us," refers to Tara Minerals and, unless the context indicates otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries.

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

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related footnote information are unaudited.  In the opinion of management, they include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the condensed consolidated results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. All 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 non-monetary asset and liability accounts, (iii) historical exchange rates for revenues and expenses associated with non-monetary 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 income (loss) is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Current and historical exchange rates are not indicative of what future exchange rates will be and should not be construed as such.

Relevant exchange rates used in the preparation of the financial statements for the AMM and ACM are as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.  Mexican pesos per one U.S. dollar.

	June 30, 2012
Current exchange rate	Ps.	13.6530
Weighted average exchange rate for the six months ended	Ps.	13.2656

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

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.

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.

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

Impuesto al Valor Agregado taxes (IVA) are recoverable value-added taxes charged by the Mexican government on goods sold and services rendered at a rate of 16%.  Under certain circumstances, these taxes are recoverable by filing a tax return and as determined by the Mexican taxing authority.

Each period, receivables are reviewed for collectability.  When a receivable is determined to not be collectable we allow for the receivable until we are either assured of collection or assured that a write-off is necessary.  Our allowance in association with our receivable from IVA from our Mexico subsidiaries is based on our determination that the Mexican government may not allow the complete refund of these taxes.

	(Unaudited)
Allowance – recoverable value-added taxes	$	1,161,034	$	1,211,109
Allowance – other receivables		-		377
Total	$	1,161,034	$	1,211,486

Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Adopted

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standard update that amends the accounting standard on fair value measurements. The accounting standard update provides for a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial Reporting Standards. The accounting standard update changes certain fair value measurement principles, clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement, and expands the fair value measurement disclosure requirements, particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this accounting standard update are to be applied prospectively and are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The adoption of this accounting standard update became effective for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2012.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows

In June 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which requires the presentation of components of other comprehensive income with the components of net income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income that contains two sections, net income and other comprehensive income, or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. This accounting standard update eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders’ equity, and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.   The adoption of this accounting standard update became effective for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2012.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

9

In September 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that amends the accounting guidance on goodwill impairment testing. The amendments in this accounting standard update are intended to reduce complexity and costs by allowing an entity the option to make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment to determine whether it should calculate the fair value of a reporting unit. The amendments also improve previous guidance by expanding upon the examples of events and circumstances that an entity should consider between annual impairment tests in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.  The amendments in this accounting standard update are effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.  The adoption of this accounting standard update became effective for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2012.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, result of operations or cash flows.

Issued

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The fair value of each award discussed above is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes 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 the award granted is usually estimated at half of the contractual term as noted in the individual agreements, unless the life is one year or less based upon management’s assessment of known factors, and represents the period of time that management anticipates awards granted 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 11. Sale of American Copper Mining

On April 4, 2012, Adit sold its wholly owned subsidiary, American Copper Mining (“ACM”), to Yamana Mexico Holdings B.V. (“Yamana”). ACM’s primary asset was the Picacho Groupings. The Picacho concessions do not have any proven reserves. Subsequent to the sale, the Company did not retain ownership in ACM.

Additional payments due in consideration of the sale of ACM are contingent to whether or not Yamana exercises its option to terminate the agreement within ten business days prior to May 25, 2013. If the agreement is terminated, Yamana will be required to return the capital stock of ACM. Due to the contingent nature of future payments they are recognized when the contingency is removed. Possible future payments include:

· $9.8 million on May 25, 2013;

· During the period ending on May 25, 2017, Yamana will pay $1.0 million for every 100,000 ounces of gold, (whether proved, measured or inferred) (as defined by Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 43-101) discovered on the Picacho Groupings. If no gold is discovered on the Picacho Groupings by May 25, 2015, Yamana will make an advance payment of $3 million. Pursuant to this provision of the Agreement, Yamana will pay a maximum of $14 million.

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, 2012 Tara Minerals generated revenue of $160,421 and incurred expenses of $658,007 in cost of sales; $6,232,858 in exploration expenses and $26,668,816 in operating and general administration expenses.  Included in operating and general and administrative expenses is a non-cash charge of $8,819,806 pertaining to the issuance of stock options and bonus plans.

            Material changes of certain items in Tara Minerals’ Statement of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period last year, are discussed below.

Three Months Ended	June 30, 2012			June 30, 2011

Operating, general and administrative expenses		1,439,677			960,717
Net operating loss	$	(2,155,139	)	$	(1,851,357	)

For the three months ending June 30, 2012, exploration expenses consisted of $430,000 for the purchase of Champinon’s technical data, preproduction activities, geological consulting, assaying, field supplies and other mine expenses.  As of 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.

Material changes of certain items in Tara Minerals’ operating, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period last year, are discussed below.

Three Months Ended	June 30, 2012		June 30, 2011

Compensation, officer employment contracts and bonuses		449,264		455,244
Professional fees		372,168		217,511

Bad debt expense for the three months ending June 30, 2012 of $116,113 was due to the corresponding Impuesto al Valor Agregado taxes (“IVA”) receivable experienced in the normal course of business in the Mexican subsidiaries. During the three months ending June 30, 2011 the Company recognized bad debt recovery due to the renegotiation of an agreement which included IVA and caused an adjustment of IVA receivables, allowance and bad debt expense.

The increase in investment banking and investor relations expense is due to options awarded to investor relations consultants in 2012. During the three months ended June 30, 2012 investor relations consisted of $81,232 paid in cash, $110,000 in options awarded and $8,200 that were accrued.

Material changes of certain items in Tara Minerals’ Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period last year, are discussed below.

Net operating loss	$	(2,933,077	)	$	(4,477,162	)

For the six months ending June 30, 2012, exploration expenses consisted of $430,000 for the purchase of Champinon’s technical data, preproduction activities, geological consulting, assaying, field supplies and other mine expenses.

In 2011, Tara Minerals sought to expand and advance the Don Roman Groupings project by acquiring additional mineral claims and by finding a joint venture partner that would provide the capital and expertise to restart the operations.

In August 2011, an agreement was signed that included an option for the joint venture partner to earn a 50% interest in the Don Roman Groupings and an additional option to earn an interest in Tara Minerals iron ore properties. As of December 31, 2011 this joint venture expired.

Throughout 2011, the Company purchased technical data for Centenario, La Palma and La Verde for stock, which comprises the majority of exploration expenses.

In 2011, the Company also ventured into the iron ore industry segment, exploring the Tania, Las Viboras Dos and Champinon properties.

Material changes of certain items in the Company’s 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, 2012		June 30, 2011

Professional fees		597,417		361,673

Bad debt expense for the six months ending June 30, 2012 of $135,165 (including $7,446 due to exchange rate fluctuation) was due to the corresponding IVA receivable experienced in the normal course of business in the Mexican subsidiaries. Bad debt expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was due to the renegotiation of an agreement which included IVA and caused an adjustment of IVA receivables, allowance and bad debt expense.

As of June 30, 2012 investor relations consisted of $110,000 in options, $114,433 in cash and $8,200 in accrued expenses. 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.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011 compensation, officer employment contracts and bonuses consisted of options with a value of $493,000, and officers’ compensation of $312,870.

Professional fees increased in 2012 due to increased legal expenses due to negotiations of the sale of American Copper Mining, which was finalized in April 2012. Professional fees increased $140,000 in 2012 due to the use of more professionals and consultants.

Tara Minerals anticipates that its capital requirements during the twelve months ending June 30, 2013 will be:

Exploration and Development – Don Roman Groupings	$	750,000
Exploration and Development – Champinon		750,000
Property taxes		95,000
General and administrative expenses		1,000,000
Total	$	2,595,000

The capital requirements shown above include capital required by Tara Minerals and subsidiaries.

In 2012, Tara Minerals is focusing its efforts on the exploration and development of the Mina El Champinon Iron Ore Project (“Champinon”) and preparatory work to bring the Don Roman mill into production in 2013. The Company has developed a strategy, which we believe will lead to the successful development of the mine and commercial production of iron ore. To date, the Company has completed numerous assays of the ore body, along with recovery analysis from Metcon Research supporting the potential viability of commercial production. Digital surveying of the area has been commissioned to develop a detailed map for the plotting of past, present, and future exploration work and current mine development planning. The permit necessary to begin mining and commercial production is in progress, with the application for an export permit to immediately follow its receipt. A production site has been determined and excavation work is ongoing to prepare the site for the installation of equipment necessary to achieve commercial quantities of saleable grade iron ore. The Company’s goal is to begin pilot production in the third quarter of 2012, with commercial sales in the fourth quarter. To this end, the Company has signed a sales agreement with a customer for mined iron ore as of the date of this filing.

The Company 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.

As of the date of this filing, the Company is reviewing the Pirita, Tania and Las Viboras Dos properties for continued inclusion as part of the Company’s mining property portfolio.  No payments toward Pirita were made in 2012 or 2011.  The Company may decide to terminate the purchase/lease agreements and return the properties. Tara Minerals is critically reviewing all properties for joint venture, option or sale opportunities.

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 except for the possible future payments related to the sale of American Copper Mining which are disclosed in the financial statements 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. Tara Minerals does not have any plans, arrangements or agreements to sell its assets or to merge with another entity.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On September 13, 2010, Tara Gold announced that it had entered into a tentative agreement with Tara Minerals which provided that Tara Minerals would acquire all of the common shares of Tara Gold by exchanging one share of Tara Minerals’ common stock for two Tara Gold shares.  In an effort to avoid any conflicts due to common directors, the transaction would require the approval of non-affiliate shareholders owning a majority of the outstanding shares of Tara Minerals and Tara Gold.

On September 20, 2010 Chris Columbo filed a lawsuit in the District Court for Carson City Nevada, against Tara Minerals, Tara Gold, and Tara Minerals’ officers and directors. The essence of the lawsuit was to obtain the fairest price for Tara Gold, whether from Tara Minerals or a third party.  On October 25, 2010 Mr. Columbo voluntarily dismissed his lawsuit against Tara Minerals and other defendants.

On October 22, 2010 Patricia J. Root filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court for Dupage County, Illinois, against Tara Minerals, Tara Gold, and Tara Gold’s directors.  The essence of the lawsuit was to prevent the Company’s proposed acquisition of Tara Gold.

Tara Minerals believed the lawsuit filed by Ms. Root was premature since, as noted in the September 13, 2010 press release, the transaction was tentative and was subject to the approval of the shareholders of Tara Gold who are not officers or directors of Tara Gold.  No binding agreement between Tara Gold and Tara Minerals has been was ever signed.

On April 6, 2011 Ms. Root voluntarily dismissed her lawsuit against Tara Minerals, Tara Gold, and all other defendants.

Tara Minerals subsequently decided that it would not acquire Tara Gold.

In August 2011 Tara Minerals entered into an agreement with Carnegie Mining and Exploration, Inc. which provided Carnegie with the option to earn up to a 50% interest in Tara Minerals’ Don Roman and iron ore projects.

In order to earn an interest in the Don Roman project, Carnegie was required to spend certain amounts on the Don Roman property such that the Don Roman plant reached minimum production levels. Carnegie could earn a 50% interest in Tara Minerals’ iron ore projects by spending $1,000,000 toward the projects by November 6, 2011.

Carnegie did not spend the required amounts on either project and Tara Minerals terminated the option.

On November 10, 2011, Tara Minerals filed a complaint in Nevada against Carnegie seeking a declaration that Carnegie failed to properly exercise its option to acquire an interest in the iron ore properties.

On December 9, 2011, Carnegie and a purported affiliate, Carnegie Operations, LLC filed a complaint in Texas state court against former employees of Carnegie. Although Tara Minerals was not initially named as a defendant, the substance of the state court complaint made it clear that the core issues were substantially similar to those raised in the Nevada litigation. The individual defendants removed the case to federal court in Dallas, Texas on December 22, 2011. Carnegie responded with a First Amended Complaint on January 31, 2012, which formally named Tara Minerals as a defendant. In its amended complaint, Carnegie seeks an injunction against Tara Minerals in connection with its option on the iron ore properties, as well as damages for alleged fraud, trade secret theft, civil conspiracy, and tortuous interference with Carnegie’s employment contracts with the individual defendants.

On February 14, 2012, Tara Minerals moved the Texas court for a transfer of venue to Nevada so that the cases could be consolidated. The motion is premised upon the facts that: 1) the option agreement includes an express consent to jurisdiction and venue in Nevada; 2) Tara Minerals filed its lawsuit first in Nevada; 3) the cases involve common issues of fact and law; and 4) transfer is cost-efficient and more convenient for the key witnesses in both matters. As of July 2012 the Texas court granted Tara Minerals’ the motion and transferred the case to Nevada.

Re: Embargo de concesiones mineras propiedad

de American Copper Mining S.A de C.V.

Robert R. Wheatley

President, Adit Resources Corp

Por medio de la presente nos permitimos hacerle llegar una breve exposición de los antecedentes, situación actual, y solución propuesta en relación a siete concesiones mineras propiedad de American Copper Mining S.A de C.V., (ACM) y el embargo impuesto por la Secretaria de Hacienda y Crédito Publico sobre dichas concesiones mineras.

1.- El 31 de  Marzo 2010,  ACM adquiere mediante Contrato de Cesión Onerosa celebrado con el Sr. Emilio Acuña la titularidad de ocho concesiones mineras  que a continuación se describen:

Nombre de Concesión	Titulo.	Hectáreas
El Picacho	161838	21
Mis Recuerdos	214776	2.1708
Picacho II	218818	448.5564
Dos Amigos	222511	24.43
Picacho II	222789	4.9217
El Picacho I	222925	2155.6890
Creston	226154	84.

2.- El 14 de Mayo de 2010 se inscriben a favor de ACM en el Registro de Minería siete de las concesiones adquiridas a Emilio Acuña descritas en el párrafo que antecede.

A partir de esta fecha, es público que el titular de las referidas concesiones lo viene a ser ACM.

3.- El 21 de Abril de 2011, se determino un crédito fiscal a cargo de diversa empresa minera denominada Corporación Amermin S.A. de C.V. (Amermin) razón por la cual la Secretaria de Hacienda y Crédito Publico (SHCP) por conducto de la Administración Local Jurídica de Chihuahua ordeno el requerimiento de pago y embargo en contra de Corporación Amermin.

Esta empresa, Amermin, es desde luego diversa entidad separada e independiente en todo sentido de ACM.

4.- El 19 de Mayo de 2011, la SHCP llevo  a cabo el requerimiento de pago del crédito fiscal a Amermin y en razón de que en el momento de llevar a cabo el requerimiento no se realizo el pago, se procedió a embargar bienes para garantizar la cantidad adeudada al fisco federal por parte de Amermin.

Para ello, la SHCP embargo diversas concesiones mineras propiedad de Amermin así como otras distintas concesiones mineras que al momento del embargo ya no eran propiedad de Amermin.

Específicamente, dicha autoridad, incorrectamente efectuó, adicionalmente  el embargo sobre las siguientes concesiones propiedad de ACM:

Nombre de Concesión	Titulo.	Hectáreas
El Picacho	161838	21
Mis Recuerdos	214776	2.1708
Picacho II	218818	448.5564
Dos Amigos	222511	24.43
Picacho II	222789	4.9217
El Picacho I	222925	2155.6890
Creston	226154	84.

5.- El 11 de Julio de 2011, Amermin, inicia en contra de  la SHCP un Juicio de Nulidad en el cual impugna y combate la determinación y procedencia del crédito fiscal determinado en su contra así como el embargo practicado en dicho procedimiento.

Este juicio se encuentra en curso actualmente y se lleva bajo el expediente  No. 1352/11-04-01-2   de la Sala Regional Norte Centro I del Tribunal Federal de Justicia Fiscal y Administrativa con sede en esta Ciudad de Chihuahua Chihuahua.

6.-El 22 de Julio de 2011, se inscriben en el Registro de Minería, en cada una de las concesiones mineras de ACM, la existencia del embargo llevado a cabo por la SHCP, y desde esa fecha hasta el presente aparece la anotación de que dichas concesiones tienen el gravamen derivado del embargo antes descrito.

Evidentemente, este embargo carece de fundamento y por lo tanto es ilegal ya que ACM es ajeno a los créditos fiscales que tenga Amermin.

7.- A pesar de la evidente ilegalidad en el embargo, la SHCP no retira el embargo hasta no tener alguna de las siguientes situaciones.

a. Que se pague el crédito fiscal. Ello  implica la aceptación y pago total del mismo por el contribuyente Amermin.

b. Que el Juicio de Nulidad que actualmente  está en curso se finalice de manera favorable para Amermin. Por la carga de trabajo de los tribunales, esta resolución puede tardara hasta dos años en resolverse.

- 2 -

c. Que un Juez se lo ordene expresamente. Para ello se requiere iniciar un juicio en contra de la SHCP el cual, a pesar de acreditarse fácilmente el grave error del embargo, se lleva un por lo menos cuatro meses de duración.

d. Que se le sustituyan los bienes embargados por otra garantía.  Esto se puede lograr mediante la obtención de una Fianza por parte de una Compañía Afianzadora.

8.- Ante este escenario y la necesidad de lograr la liberación del embargo lo antes posible, la recomendación que se le realiza a las empresas involucradas, ACM y Amermin, es que se utilice como primera opción la descrita en el inciso d referida en el párrafo que antecede, es decir, la sustitución de la garantía.

Esta opción es probablemente la más segura y más rápida de obtener, ya que al reunir todos los requisitos que pide la Compañía Afianzadora se expediría la fianza solicitada.

9.- Los pasos y tiempos aproximados para lograr la liberación del embargo bajo la opción de la obtención de la fianza serian los siguientes:

· Expedir la Fianza, previo la entrega de los documentos requeridos y hacer el deposito solicitados por la Compañía Afianzadora………….  2 Semanas.

· Autorización de la aceptación de la fianza y  la expedición de la orden al Registro de Minería de la cancelación de los embargos por parte de la SHCP………………………………………………………….……….5 Semanas.

· Recepción y registro del oficio de cancelación ante el registro así como eliminación de la anotación de embargo sobre cada una de las concesiones embragadas por parte del registro de Minería….…8 Semanas.

Estos tiempos son estimados, ellos dependen de la carga de trabajo de cada dependencia y evidentemente en cada instancia se realizara el mejor esfuerzo para gestionar la rápida tramitación de cada fase del proceso.

Sin más por el momento, y esperando que la presente describa la situación actual que guardan las concesiones embargadas de ACM, quedamos a sus órdenes para comentar más ampliamente la presente.

Dear Sirs:

RE: Tax Litigation

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt  and sufficiency whereof being acknowledged, the undersigned Corporacion Amermin S.A. de C.V. (“Amermin”) does hereby acknowledge and agree as follows:

1.           It is subject to tax claims as more particularly described in the tax litigation attached hereto as Schedule “A”.

2.           As a result of the tax claims (the “Tax Claims”), certain properties (the “Encumbered Properties”) registered in the name of American Copper Mining S.A. de C.V. (“American Copper”) as set forth in Schedule “B” are subject to embargos to and in favour of the Government of Mexico (the “Government”) as set forth in Schedule “C” attached hereto (the “Embargos”).

3.           Yamana Mexico Holdings B.V. (“Yamana Mexico”) has entered into an agreement of purchase and sale dated as of March 23, 2012 (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which Yamana Mexico has agreed to purchase from Adit Resources Corp. (“ADIT”) and others, all of the issued and shares of American Copper.

4.           Closing documents pursuant to the completion of the transactions contemplated in the Purchase Agreement have been deposited in escrow (the “Escrow Deposit”) pending the release of the Embargos from the Encumbered Properties.

5.           Yamana, Amermin and ADIT have signed an acknowledgement dated as of even date as to the amount of money (together with interest thereon, containing a buffer of approximately an additional month of interest and inflation updating) that is due and owing to the Government pursuant to the Tax Claims (the “Released Cash”).

6.           The Released Cash does not form a part of the Escrow Deposit.

7.           Amermin has agreed to grant an irrevocable power of attorney to Rodrigo Alfonso Sanchez Mejorada Velasco, Jose Eduardo Ribe Martinez de Velasco and Paola Salgado Tonda, jointly and severally, each of Sanchez-Mejorada Velasco y Ribe (“RSM”) in the form of Schedule “D” attached hereto (the “Embargo Power of Attorney”), it being understood and agreed that the grant by Amermin of the Embargo Power of Attorney does not detract from Amermin’s obligations to obtain the release of the Embargos from the Encumbered Properties and in such regard, the Embargo Power of Attorney is only granted for ease of administration.

8.           The Embargo Power of Attorney is being executed and delivered by Amermin contemporaneous with the execution and delivery of this Amermin Side Letter.

9.           For greater certainty and without limitation:

(a)         RSM shall accept the Released Cash on Amermin’s behalf;

(b)         RSM may shall pay the Released Cash to the Government on Amermin’s behalf;

(c)         Amermin shall do all such acts and things and shall not omit to do any acts or things which shall be required to enable RSM to be in a position to make the payment of the Released Cash to the Government, including without limitation, the provision of any and all information from time to time which RSM shall reasonably require in order that the payment is properly applied to the Tax Claim;

(d)         If judged necessary by RSM, RSM shall deal with the Government on Amermin’s behalf, on an administrative basis with a view to obtaining the release of the Embargos from the Encumbered Properties;

(e)         Amermin shall advise ADIT and Yamana Mexico as and when the Embargos are released from the Encumbered Properties and provide documentary evidence thereof to RSM; and

(f)          RSM shall advise Amermin, ADIT and Yamana Mexico as and when additional acts and/or documents are required in order to obtain the release of the Embargos from the Encumbered Properties.

9.           If the Government shall not release the Embargos from the Encumbered Properties on or before October 1, 2012 to the satisfaction of Yamana Mexico and ADIT, Amermin shall thereupon without any further or other act or formality, owe the Released Cash to Yamana Mexico together with interest thereon at the same rate as charged by the Government pursuant to the Tax Claims, such interest to commence from and after October 1, 2012 and to be paid both from and after default and judgement.  The Released Cash together with interest thereon as aforesaid shall be paid in cash by wire transfer to Yamana Mexico to an account specified by Yamana Mexico, all without set-off, deduction or defalcation.

- 2 -

This Amermin Side Letter shall be binding upon Amermin and its successors and assigns and shall enure to the benefit of each of ADIT and Yamana Mexico and their respective successors and assigns.

This Amermin Side Letter shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada.

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, 2011. Significant accounting policies disclosed therein have not changed, except as noted below.

Tara Minerals owns 99.9% of the common stock of American Metal Mining S.A. de C.V. ("AMM"), a Mexican corporation. Tara Minerals also owns 87% of the common stock of Adit Resources Corp. ("Adit"). Tara Minerals' operations in Mexico are conducted through AMM since Mexican law provides that only Mexican corporations are allowed to own mining properties. American Metal Mining's primary focus is on industrial minerals, e.g. iron, copper and zinc.

On April 4, 2012 Adit sold its subsidiary American Copper Mining S.A. de C.V. ("ACM") to Yamana Mexico Holdings B.V. ("Yamana"). ACM's primary asset was the Picacho groupings.

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.

In this filing references to "Company," "we," "our," and/or "us," refers to Tara Minerals and, unless the context indicates otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries.

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

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related footnote information are unaudited. In the opinion of management, they include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the condensed consolidated results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. All 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 non-monetary asset and liability accounts, (iii) historical exchange rates for revenues and expenses associated with non-monetary 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 income (loss) is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Current and historical exchange rates are not indicative of what future exchange rates will be and should not be construed as such.

Relevant exchange rates used in the preparation of the financial statements for the AMM and ACM are as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Mexican pesos per one U.S. dollar.

	June 30, 2012
Current exchange rate	Ps.	13.6530
Weighted average exchange rate for the six months ended	Ps.	13.2656

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

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.

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.

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

Impuesto al Valor Agregado taxes (IVA) are recoverable value-added taxes charged by the Mexican government on goods sold and services rendered at a rate of 16%. Under certain circumstances, these taxes are recoverable by filing a tax return and as determined by the Mexican taxing authority.

Each period, receivables are reviewed for collectability. When a receivable is determined to not be collectable we allow for the receivable until we are either assured of collection or assured that a write-off is necessary. Our allowance in association with our receivable from IVA from our Mexico subsidiaries is based on our determination that the Mexican government may not allow the complete refund of these taxes.

Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Adopted

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standard update that amends the accounting standard on fair value measurements. The accounting standard update provides for a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial Reporting Standards. The accounting standard update changes certain fair value measurement principles, clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement, and expands the fair value measurement disclosure requirements, particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this accounting standard update are to be applied prospectively and are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard update became effective for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows

In June 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which requires the presentation of components of other comprehensive income with the components of net income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income that contains two sections, net income and other comprehensive income, or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. This accounting standard update eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders' equity, and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard update became effective for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that amends the accounting guidance on goodwill impairment testing. The amendments in this accounting standard update are intended to reduce complexity and costs by allowing an entity the option to make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment to determine whether it should calculate the fair value of a reporting unit. The amendments also improve previous guidance by expanding upon the examples of events and circumstances that an entity should consider between annual impairment tests in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The amendments in this accounting standard update are effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard update became effective for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, result of operations or cash flows.

Issued

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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

a. On April 2012 the Company sold ACM to Yamana. ACM's primary asset was the Picacho groupings (see Note 11).

b. In September 2011, the Company leased the Mina El Champinon Iron Ore Project ("Champinon") for royalty payments based on production.

In May, 2012, the Company terminated the lease agreement for Champinon and entered into a new agreement to acquire the Iron Ore Project for an effective purchase price of $2,175,000, plus $348,000 in value-added taxes.

Included in the purchase agreement, all prior payments plus value-added taxes (see Note 4) were applied to the note payable.

The resulting outstanding debt payment schedule, including applicable value added taxes, is as follow:

2012	$	473,667
2013		947,333
2014		696,000
Total	$	2,117,000

In accordance with the Interest Topic of FASB ASC, the note payable amount of $2,175,000 has been discounted using the incremental borrowing rate of 1.30%. As of June 30, 2012, the present value of future payments toward the notes payable on the contract is as follows:

	Debt			IVA		Total
Total remaining debt	$	1,825,000		$	292,000	$	2,117,000

Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Nature of business and principles of consolidation

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, 2011. Significant accounting policies disclosed therein have not changed, except as noted below.

Tara Minerals owns 99.9% of the common stock of American Metal Mining S.A. de C.V. ("AMM"), a Mexican corporation. Tara Minerals also owns 87% of the common stock of Adit Resources Corp. ("Adit"). Tara Minerals' operations in Mexico are conducted through AMM since Mexican law provides that only Mexican corporations are allowed to own mining properties. American Metal Mining's primary focus is on industrial minerals, e.g. iron, copper and zinc.

On April 4, 2012 Adit sold its subsidiary American Copper Mining S.A. de C.V. ("ACM") to Yamana Mexico Holdings B.V. ("Yamana"). ACM's primary asset was the Picacho groupings.

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.

In this filing references to "Company," "we," "our," and/or "us," refers to Tara Minerals and, unless the context indicates otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries.

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

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related footnote information are unaudited. In the opinion of management, they include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the condensed consolidated results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. All 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 non-monetary asset and liability accounts, (iii) historical exchange rates for revenues and expenses associated with non-monetary 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 income (loss) is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Current and historical exchange rates are not indicative of what future exchange rates will be and should not be construed as such.

Relevant exchange rates used in the preparation of the financial statements for the AMM and ACM are as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Mexican pesos per one U.S. dollar.

	June 30, 2012
Current exchange rate	Ps.	13.6530
Weighted average exchange rate for the six months ended	Ps.	13.2656

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

Estimates

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.

Reclassifications

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.

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

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

Impuesto al Valor Agregado taxes (IVA) are recoverable value-added taxes charged by the Mexican government on goods sold and services rendered at a rate of 16%. Under certain circumstances, these taxes are recoverable by filing a tax return and as determined by the Mexican taxing authority.

Each period, receivables are reviewed for collectability. When a receivable is determined to not be collectable we allow for the receivable until we are either assured of collection or assured that a write-off is necessary. Our allowance in association with our receivable from IVA from our Mexico subsidiaries is based on our determination that the Mexican government may not allow the complete refund of these taxes.

Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Adopted

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standard update that amends the accounting standard on fair value measurements. The accounting standard update provides for a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial Reporting Standards. The accounting standard update changes certain fair value measurement principles, clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement, and expands the fair value measurement disclosure requirements, particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this accounting standard update are to be applied prospectively and are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard update became effective for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows

In June 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which requires the presentation of components of other comprehensive income with the components of net income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income that contains two sections, net income and other comprehensive income, or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. This accounting standard update eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders' equity, and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard update became effective for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that amends the accounting guidance on goodwill impairment testing. The amendments in this accounting standard update are intended to reduce complexity and costs by allowing an entity the option to make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment to determine whether it should calculate the fair value of a reporting unit. The amendments also improve previous guidance by expanding upon the examples of events and circumstances that an entity should consider between annual impairment tests in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The amendments in this accounting standard update are effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard update became effective for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, result of operations or cash flows.

Issued

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Options and Warrants

Note 8. Options and Warrants

The Company has the following incentive plans which are registered under a Form S-8:

· Incentive Stock Option Plan

· Nonqualified Stock Option Plan

· Stock Bonus Plan

In March 2012, the Company sold 594,000 units in a private offering for $297,000 in cash, or $0.50 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 or any time before December 31, 2012. The shares and warrants were issued in April 2012.

On October 28, 2009, Adit, the Company's subsidiary, adopted the following incentive plans which have not been registered:

· Incentive Stock Option Plan

· Nonqualified Stock Option Plan

· Stock Bonus Plan

There was no issuance of instruments under the Adit plans in 2012.

The fair value of each award discussed above is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes 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 the award granted is usually estimated at half of the contractual term as noted in the individual agreements, unless the life is one year or less based upon management's assessment of known factors, and represents the period of time that management anticipates awards granted 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.

	June 30, 2012		December 31, 2011
Expected volatility		104.82%		98.06% - 163.11%
Weighted-average volatility		104.82%		143.46%

Sale of American Copper Mining

Note 11. Sale of American Copper Mining

On April 4, 2012, Adit sold its wholly owned subsidiary, American Copper Mining ("ACM"), to Yamana Mexico Holdings B.V. ("Yamana"). ACM's primary asset was the Picacho Groupings. The Picacho concessions do not have any proven reserves. Subsequent to the sale, the Company did not retain ownership in ACM.

Additional payments due in consideration of the sale of ACM are contingent to whether or not Yamana exercises its option to terminate the agreement within ten business days prior to May 25, 2013. If the agreement is terminated, Yamana will be required to return the capital stock of ACM. Due to the contingent nature of future payments they are recognized when the contingency is removed. Possible future payments include:

· $9.8 million on May 25, 2013;

· During the period ending on May 25, 2017, Yamana will pay $1.0 million for every 100,000 ounces of gold, (whether proved, measured or inferred) (as defined by Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 43-101) discovered on the Picacho Groupings. If no gold is discovered on the Picacho Groupings by May 25, 2015, Yamana will make an advance payment of $3 million. Pursuant to this provision of the Agreement, Yamana will pay a maximum of $14 million.

· $4.3 million on May 25, 2018.
