Item 1. Business.

Tara Gold Resources Corp. (the “Company” or “Tara Gold”), was incorporated in 1999 in Nevada as Westnet Communications Group, Inc. On April 1, 2001, the Company acquired MerchantPark Communications, Inc. for shares of its common stock. After this acquisition, the Company’s operations involved the development of software which could be used by small businesses for web-site development and hosting.Background

InWe ~~March~~were ~~2002~~incorporated ~~the~~in ~~Company~~1999 discontinued its software development operations and was inactive until early 2004. In November 2003 the Company changed its name to American Stellar Energy, Inc., and began acquiring oil and gas properties in ~~early 2004~~Nevada. ~~In 2005 the Company sold its oil and gas properties after it determined that these properties were not economical.~~

In 2005 ~~the~~we ~~Company~~ became involved in the exploration of gold and silver mining properties. In February 2006, ~~the~~we ~~Company~~ changed ~~its~~our name to Tara Gold Resources Corp. In May 2005 ~~Tara~~we ~~Gold,~~began acquiring mining properties in Mexico through ~~its~~our subsidiary, Corporacion Amermin S.A. de C.V. (“Amermin”), ~~began acquiring mining properties in Mexico~~. ~~Tara~~ All ~~Gold’s~~of our operations in Mexico are conducted through Amermin ~~and American Metal Mining~~ since Mexican law provides that only Mexican corporations are allowed to own mining properties. ~~All of Tara Gold’s operations in Mexico are conducted through its Mexican subsidiaries.~~

In 2006 ~~Tara Gold~~we, ~~then focused on gold and silver properties,~~ formed Tara Minerals Corp.~~(“Tara Minerals”) when it determined that some investors prefer lead~~, ~~zinc~~now ~~and~~named ~~silver~~Firma ~~projects,~~Holdings rather than solely gold and silver projects, and that capital may be easier to obtain by separating gold properties from industrial metal projects. Although this was Tara Gold’s intention when it formed Tara Minerals, Tara Minerals nevertheless has interests in properties which may be productive of gold or silver. Tara Minerals owns 99.9% of the common stock of American Metal Mining S.A. de C.V., a Mexican corporation. Tara Minerals formed Adit Resources Corp. ~~(“Adit”) in 2009 to hold the Picacho property~~, ~~described further below,~~ and tobecame ~~finance~~its ~~exploration~~principal ~~and development of the Picacho property through the sale of Adit’s securities~~shareholder. Currently, Tara Minerals owns 87% of the common stock of Adit Resources Corp. As of April 15, 2013, Tara Gold owns approximately 52% of the outstanding common stock of Tara Minerals. Tara Gold and Tara Minerals’ operations in Mexico are conducted through American Metal Mining and Amermin since Mexican law provides that only Mexican corporations are allowed to own mining properties.

~~Tara~~In ~~Gold~~December ~~focuses~~2014, ~~primarily~~we onsold ~~gold~~our ~~mining~~interest ~~concessions. Tara~~in ~~Minerals’~~the ~~primary~~common ~~focus~~stock isof ~~also~~Amermin, onour ~~gold~~Mexican ~~and silver~~subsidiary, asto ~~well~~an asindependent ~~industrial~~third ~~minerals,~~party ~~copper,~~for ~~lead,~~$100. Subsequent ~~zinc~~to December 2014, ~~iron~~we determined that it was not likely that the receivable would be collected. As such, ~~and~~the ~~other~~receivable ~~associated~~for ~~metals~~the $100 was written off as of December 31, 2014.

On ~~April~~May 425, ~~2012,~~2011 ~~Adit~~we ~~sold~~distributed ~~its~~one ~~subsidiary,~~share ~~American~~of ~~Copper~~Firma ~~Mining~~Holdings ~~S.A. de C.V. (“American Copper”)~~ to ~~Yamana~~our ~~Mexico~~shareholders ~~Holdings~~for ~~B.V.~~every ~~(“Yamana”). American~~20 ~~Copper’s~~outstanding ~~primary~~shares ~~asset~~of ~~was~~our ~~the~~common ~~Picacho groupings~~stock.

In November 2014 the ~~event~~Board of ~~any~~Directors ~~conflicts~~of the Company approved the final dividend of ~~interest~~its ~~between~~ownership ~~Tara~~in ~~Gold~~Firma Holdings to be issued and ~~Tara~~concurrently ~~Minerals,~~made ~~Tara~~application ~~Minerals~~with ~~will~~FINRA ~~have~~on the ~~first~~distribution.

On February 5, ~~Tara~~2015 ~~Gold~~we ~~will~~distributed bethese ~~able~~remaining toshares ~~share~~we had in Firma Holdings to our shareholders. Accordingly, we no longer have any ~~mining~~interest ~~properties~~in ~~which~~Firma ~~Tara~~Holdings. As ~~Minerals~~the ~~successfully~~Directors ~~develops~~approval and FINRA application were both made in November 2014, the Company has deconsolidated Firma Holdings and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014.

OnSee ~~May~~Item ~~25,~~10 ~~2011, Tara Gold distributed one share~~ of Tara Minerals for every 20 issued and outstanding shares of Tara Gold. Tara Gold plans to make additional distributions until all Tara Minerals’ shares held by Tara Gold have been distributed to Tara Gold’s shareholders. Once this isreport ~~complete,~~regarding ~~Tara~~changes ~~Gold will not have any interest~~ in ~~the~~our ~~properties owned by Tara Minerals or Adit.~~management

~~Tara~~Proposed Gold and Tara Minerals will continue their efforts to develop mining properties which are thought to contain commercial quantities of gold, silver and other minerals. There is no assurance that any of Tara Gold’s remaining properties will be capable of producing precious or industrial metals in commercial quantity.Business

~~For~~Our ~~the~~new ~~most~~appointed ~~part,~~management ~~the~~seeks ~~officers~~to ~~and~~establish ~~directors~~a ofstrong ~~Tara~~foothold ~~Minerals,~~in ~~Tara Gold, and Adit are~~ the ~~same,~~marketplace ~~and~~for ~~will~~income ~~remain~~producing ~~the~~“small ~~same~~mine” ~~following~~operations ~~the~~along ~~distribution~~with ofadvanced ~~all~~real ~~the~~estate ~~shares~~income ~~of Tara Minerals held by Tara Gold. As discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report, Adit has sold its only property~~ and ~~it is not expected that Adit will acquire any new mining properties~~growth.

Our new officers and directors bring us over 125 years of experience in mine management and exploration in geology, reserve development, metallurgy, permitting, mine health and safety, and production. In addition, the real estate team brings in over 110 years of experience in real estate development, management, finance, and construction.

The management team and board of directors have identified near term acquisitions in both mine operations with historical production and data as well as income producing real estate to balance out the new anticipated portfolio of properties under consideration.

Our initiatives for 2015 are to acquire income-producing assets that generate sales in the first year of operation and improve the asset base of the company.

On July 18, 2011, the Securities and Exchange Commission revoked our registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and our stock ceased to trade. In 2012, we filed a Form 10 which cleared SEC comments on November 21, 2012. To trade again, we will need to work with a securities broker to complete the filings required by FINRA.

As of April 20, 2015 we had 102,795,119 outstanding shares of common stock and 76 shareholders of record. As of that same date we did not have any outstanding options, warrants or securities which were convertible into shares of our common stock.

We have not paid, and do not expect to declare or pay, any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future, and currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business. The decision whether to pay cash dividends on our common stock will be made by our Directors, in their discretion, and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by the Directors.

During the two years ended December 31, 2014 neither we, nor any of our officers or directors, purchased any shares of our common stock in the open market.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

Not applicable.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.

We were incorporated in 1999 in Nevada.

In 2005 we became involved in the exploration of gold and silver mining properties.

In 2006 we, formed Tara Minerals Corp., now named Firma Holdings Corp., and became its principal shareholder.

On May 25, 2011 we distributed one share of Firma Holdings to our shareholders for every 20 outstanding shares of our common stock. As of December 31, 2014, we owned approximately 45% of Firma’s outstanding shares. On February 5, 2015 we distributed these remaining shares to our shareholders. Accordingly, we no longer have any interest in Firma Holdings.

As a result of our then ownership of Firma Holdings, and the fact that our officers and directors at December 31, 2013 were also officers and directors of Firma Holdings, our financial statements at December 31, 2013 are consolidated with those of Firma Holdings. Since, as of February 5, 2015, we no longer had any interest in Firma Holdings, our December 31, 2014 financial statements are not consolidated with those of Firma Holdings. As a result of the foregoing, a comparison of our operating results or financial condition for the year ended December 31, 2014 with our operating results or financial condition for the year ended December 31, 2013 would not be meaningful.

The proposed exploration program for Tara Gold’s properties will typically consist of rock-chip sampling, soil geochemistry, geological mapping, a geophysical survey, trenching, drilling, and resource calculation. The exploration program will take place in phases, with some phases occurring simultaneously. Rock chip and soil geochemistry may be initiated first to test and define the mineralization. This may be followed up with a CSAMT (Controlled-Source Audio-Frequency Magneto Telluric) (or other appropriate geophysical methods) to test the extent and depth of sulfide mineralization which could host copper, lead or zinc. The CSAMT is an industry standard geophysical technique that has been used successfully to identify carbonate deposits in Mexico and other locations.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. See Note 1 to the financial statements included as part of this report for information concerning our accounting policies.

Table of Contents

Geologically, La Currita is a low sulfide epithermal gold/silver tabular vein system that has a strike orientation of N30W and a dip of 60 degrees. It is part of the sequence of volcanic rocks that form the base of the Sierra Madre Occidental. This sequence of rocks is characterized by an up to 1,000 meter thick Lower Volcanic Sequence of andesitic flows, volcanic sediments and intrusive bodies that are unconformably overlain by a thick (up to 1,000 meters) Upper Volcanic Sequence of caldera-related rhyolitic flows, ignimbrites and domes. Precious metal mineralization in these units is hosted in low-sulfide quartz veins, breccias and stockwork zones that formed in the Lower Volcanic Sequence, principally along northwest trending, extensional normal faults.

We currently do not have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of Directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The Board of Directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.

Tara Minerals’ justification for acquiring the Don Roman concessions is the general knowledge in Mexico of the types and occurrence of deposits that form around a typical “Porphyry Copper Deposit System.” The many large and small, high-grade poly-metallic veins in the district, which surround the known low-grade porphyry copper center, are typical of this type of system. These types of veins have been mined successfully in many other districts in the U.S. and Mexico. The percentage of poly-metallics, meaning zinc, lead, copper and iron, is buoyed by the presence of substantial silver and gold as subordinate metals in these veins. One of the veins obtained has been mined for 20 years. Several others have been mined off and on for many years. One of the veins, El Refugio, was first mined over 400 years ago and has seen mining as recently as 5 years ago.

Property owned by Adit Resources

Picacho Groupings

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

As consideration for the sale of American Copper, Yamana paid or agreed to pay Adit the following, in U.S. dollars:

· $7.5 million, minus approximately $780,000 (the amount required to pay the Mexican government to release its tax lien on the Property), was deposited into an escrow account and released May 25, 2012;

· $9.8 million scheduled to be released 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. Yamana’s maximum payment under this provision of the sale agreement, is $14 million; and,

· $4.3 million on May 25, 2018.

Yamana Gold Inc. effectively surrendered 500,000 Adit common shares, and warrants to purchase an additional 250,000 Adit common shares, upon the execution of the sale agreement.

Yamana has the option to terminate the sale agreement within ten business days prior to May 25, 2013 for any reason. If the sale agreement is terminated, Yamana will be required to return the capital stock of American Copper and the underlying property to the Company in good standing.

United States Mining Laws and Regulations

In the United States, unpatented mining claims on inappropriate federal land may be acquired pursuant to procedures established by the Mining Law of 1872 and other federal and state laws. These acts generally provide that a citizen of the United States (including corporations) may acquire a possessory right to develop and mine valuable mineral deposits discovered upon inappropriate federal lands, provided that such lands have not been withdrawn from mineral location, e.g., national parks, military reservations and lands designated as part of the National Wilderness Preservation System. The validity of all unpatented mining claims is dependent upon inherent uncertainties and conditions. These uncertainties relate to such non-record facts as the sufficiency of the discovery of minerals, proper posting and marking of boundaries and possible conflicts with other claims not determinable from descriptions of record. Prior to discovery of a locatable mineral thereon, a mining claim may be open to location by others unless the owner is in possession of the claim.

The domestic exploration programs conducted by Tara Gold will be subject to federal, state and local environmental regulations. The United States Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management extensively regulate mining operations conducted on public lands. Most operations involving the exploration for minerals are subject to existing laws and regulations relating to exploration procedures, safety precautions, employee health and safety, air quality standards, pollution of stream and fresh water sources, odor, noise, dust, and other environmental protection controls adopted by federal, state, and local governmental authorities as well as the rights of adjoining property owners. Tara Gold may be required to prepare and present to federal, state, or local authorities data pertaining to the effect or impact that any proposed exploration or production of minerals may have upon the environment. All requirements imposed by any such authorities may be costly and time-consuming, and may delay commencement or continuation of exploration or production operations.

Table of Contents

Future legislation and regulations are expected to continue to emphasize the protection of the environment, and, as a consequence, the activities of Tara Gold may be more closely regulated to further the cause of environmental protection. Such legislation and regulations, as well as future interpretation of existing laws, may require substantial increases in capital and operating costs to Tara Gold and may result in delays, interruptions, or a termination of operations, the extent of which cannot be predicted.

Mining operations in the United States are subject to inspection and regulation by the Mine Safety and Health Administration of the Department of Labor (MSHA) under provisions of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977.

Tara Gold’s operations will also be subject to regulations under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (CERCLA or Superfund), which regulates and establishes liability for the release of hazardous substances, and the Endangered Species Act (ESA), which identifies endangered species of plants and animals and regulates activities to protect these species and their habitats. Tara Gold may incur expenditures for land reclamation pursuant to federal and state land restoration laws and regulations. Under certain circumstances, Tara Gold may be required to close an operation until a particular problem is remedied or to undertake other remedial actions.

Mexican Mining Laws and Regulations

In Mexico, Article 27 of the Mexican Constitution grants the ownership of essentially all minerals to the Mexican nation. The right to exploit those minerals is given to private parties through concessions issued by the Mexican government. The current Mining Law of Mexico was enacted in 1992. Concessions are granted on mining lots, the sides of which measure 100 meters, or a multiple of 100, except when adjoining lots (granted when there were no size requirements) require a smaller size.

An exploration concession is granted to the first applicant that meets the requirements of the Mining Law, the most important of which is that the claimed area is deemed to be “free land”. Under the Mining Law, areas that are already covered by mining concessions or applications for mining concessions, as well as reserved areas such as the coast and the seabed, are not free.

Exploration mining concession applications are filed at government offices. Exploration concessions are valid for fifty years and give their holders the right to carry out exploration work and, if warranted, put into produce any ore discovered on the concession.

Mining concessions do not grant the holder the right to enter or use the surface land of the mining lots. It is therefore necessary to obtain the permission of the surface owner for that purpose. Typically, a verbal authorization with no consideration is granted for prospecting and sample gathering. A simple letter agreement or contract is normally used for drilling, trenching, or basic road building. For more advanced exploration activities, a small monetary consideration is normally required. In some cases the concessionaire is also required to make minor improvements which benefit the local community such as fixing a road or fence or building an earthen dam. Building and operating a mine requires a more formal agreement. If an agreement cannot be reached with the surface owner, the Mining Law gives the concessionaire the right to request a temporary occupation of the land or an expropriation (or an easement for the construction of roads, power lines, water pipes, etc.). Compensation is set through an appraisal made by the federal government.

A concessionaire’s most important obligation is the performance of assessment work on the mining lots. A minimum amount of assessment work measured in monetary terms must be performed each year, depends on the size of the mining lot and, for an exploration mining concession, the number of years elapsed since its issue, pursuant to minimum investment tables established by the Mexican government. Assessment work may be done either through expenditures or the sale of minerals. A report must be filed in May of every year regarding the work for the previous calendar year. Lack of performance of the minimum work will result in the cancellation of the concession; payment to the government in lieu of required assessment of work is not allowed.

Table of Contents

Concessionaires must comply with federal environmental regulations which generally require that mining activities be subject to an environmental impact statement authorization. Normally an environmental impact statement authorization can be obtained in six to twelve months from the date of its filing. However, mining operations that do not exceed levels established by the Mexican government are not required to file an environmental impact statement.

The Mining Law forbids concessionaires from removing mine timbering and supports and requires compliance with all safety rules promulgated by the Mexican government.

Mexican and foreign individuals, as well as Mexican corporations, are allowed to hold mining concessions. Although foreign corporations may not hold mining concessions, foreign corporations may, however, own Mexican corporations.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

On September 13, 2010, Tara Gold announced that it had entered into a tentative agreement with Tara Minerals which provided Tara Minerals would acquire all of the outstanding shares of Tara Gold by exchanging one share of Tara Mineral’s common stock for two Tara Gold shares.

On September 20, 2010, Chris Columbo filed a lawsuit in the District Court for Carson City Nevada, against Tara Gold, Tara Gold’s officers and directors and Tara Minerals. 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 Gold and other defendants.

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

Tara Gold believes the lawsuit filed by Ms. Root was premature since, as noted in the September 13, 2010 press release, the transaction is tentative and is 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 was ever signed. In April 2011 Ms. Root subsequently dismissed her lawsuit against Tara Gold and other defendants.

Table of Contents

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

On May 6, 2010, the Securities and Exchange Commission temporarily suspended trading in Tara Gold’s securities due to the failure of Tara Gold to file its 10-Q and 10-K reports pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.

On the same day the Commission issued an Order Instituting Proceedings whereby the Commission sought to revoke Tara Gold’s registration of its common stock pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.

On September 7, 2010, an administrative law judge issued an Initial Decision revoking Tara Gold’s registration of its common stock. On September 24, 2010 Tara Gold filed a Petition to Review the decision of the administrative law judge. On September 30, 2010, the Commission granted Tara Gold’s Petition for Review. On November 1, 2010, Tara Gold filed a brief in support of its petition with the Commission. On July 18, 2011, the Commission revoked the registration of Tara Gold’s securities pursuant to Section 12(j) of the Securities Act of 1934. Tara Gold has appealed the Commission’s decision to the U.S, 7th Circuit Court of Appeals. In May 2012 the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed Tara Gold’s appeal on the basis that:

· Tara Gold filed a Registration Statement on August 4, 2011,

· The Registration Statement automatically became effective on October 3, 2011,

· Upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, Tara Gold’s common stock was registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the 1934 Act,

· Since Tara Gold’s stock had become registered under the 1934 Act, there was no point in reversing the Commission decision, and therefore the issue was moot.

There is no assurance that Tara Gold will be able to continue to file reports required by the Securities and Exchange Commission in a timely manner.

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 against Carnegie seeking a declaration that Carnegie failed to properly exercise its option to acquire an interest in the iron ore properties. Carnegie was required to respond to the complaint on or before March 21, 2012.

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.

Table of Contents

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. In July 2012, the Texas Court granted Tara Minerals motion and transferred the case to Nevada.

All litigation related to the Don Ramon option was settled on March 15, 2013, pursuant to a Settlement Agreement and Release executed by all interested parties. In exchange for Carnegie’s acknowledgement that it has no rights under the Option, AMM assigned its Champinon mining rights purchase contract, including all related obligations and acquisition payments, to Plathio Trading Mexico, SA de CV, Carnegie’s Mexican subsidiary, and the Company agreed to issue to Carnegie 500,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, which may not be sold until the earlier of: (i) the Company’s shares reaching a minimum trading price of $1.00 per share; or (ii) two years from the date of the Agreement. Under the transfer agreement for the Champinon property, AMM retains mining and beneficial rights to known silver, zinc, and led vein structure present on the Champinon concession. The Agreement confirms Carnegie’s acknowledgement of the Company’s 100% ownership of the Don Roman property.

Other than the foregoing, Tara Gold is not involved in any legal proceedings and Tara Gold does not know of any legal proceedings which are threatened or contemplated.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

Not applicable.

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

Prior to May 2010, the common stock of Tara Gold traded in the over-the-counter market, which is sometimes referred to as the “pink sheets”, under the symbol: TRGD. In May 2010 the Securities and Exchange Commission stopped the trading in Tara Gold’s common stock due to the fact that Tara Gold was delinquent in filing its 10-K and 10-Q reports. As a result of the SEC’s stop trading order, Tara Gold’s common stock was removed from the Pink Sheets and until July 18, 2011 traded only on an unsolicited basis.

As a result of the Commission’s ruling on July 18, 2011 (see Item 3 above), all trading in Tara Gold’s stock ceased. In 2012, Tara Gold successfully filed a Form 10 which cleared SEC comments in November 31, 2012. To begin trading once again Tara Gold will engage in the 15c-211 process with a market maker in 2013.

Shown below are the ranges of high and low closing prices for Tara Gold’ common stock for the periods indicated as reported by FINRA and as reported on www.stockhouse.com until trading ceased.

The decision whether to pay cash dividends on our common stock will be made by our Board of Directors, in their discretion, and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 neither Tara Gold, nor any of Tara Gold’s officers or directors, purchased any shares of Tara Gold’s common stock in the open market.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

Not applicable.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.

Tara Gold was incorporated in October 1999. During the period from its incorporation through December 31, 2012, Tara Gold generated revenue of approximately $725,000 and incurred expenses of approximately $759,000 in cost of sales, $10,693,000 in exploration expenses and $45,104,000 in operating and general administration expenses. Included in operating and general and administrative expenses are non-cash charges of approximately $9,140,000 pertaining to the issuance of stock based compensation and stock bonuses of Tara Minerals.

Material changes of certain items in Tara Gold’s Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, are discussed below.

Year Ended	December 31, 2012			December 31, 2011
(In thousands of U.S. Dollars)
Revenue	$	-		$	-
Cost of revenue		-			-
Exploration expenses		1,441			2,901
Operating, general and administrative expenses		5,047			5,788
Net operating loss	$	(6,488	)	$	(8,689	)

For the year ended December 31, 2012, exploration expenses decreased due to the operational focus on only one property, Champinon, compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, when the Company focused on acquiring technical data and focusing on Centenario, La Palma, La Verde and the Iron Ore Properties. For the year ended December 31, 2012, exploration expenses consisted of $680,000 for the acquisition of Champinon’s technical data ($430,000 paid with Tara Minerals’ stock and $250,000 with cash) and $761,000 for preproduction activities, geological consulting, assaying, field supplies, other mine expenses and compensation of two engineers hired in 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2011 explorations expenses consisted of $2,592,000 for the acquisition of technical data for Centenario, La Palma and La Verde ($2,492,000 paid with Tara Minerals’ stock and $100,000 with cash), which comprises the majority of exploration expenses for the period; the remaining $309,000 was spent on mine activities and other various mine expenses for the Iron Ore Properties (Tania, Las Viboras Dos and Champinon properties).

Table of Contents

Material changes of certain items in Tara Gold’s operating, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, are discussed below.

Year Ended	December 31, 2012		December 31, 2011
(In thousands of U.S. Dollars)
Bad debt expense	$	806	$	850
Investment banking and investor relations expense		369		577
Compensation, officer employment contracts and bonuses		1,576		1,730
Professional fees		1,159		1,235

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 has doubtful collectability we allow for the receivable until we are either assured of collection (and reverse the allowance) or assured that a write-off is necessary. Our allowance in association with our receivables from IVA from our Mexico subsidiaries is based on our determination that the Mexican government may not allow the complete refund of these taxes. Bad debt expense increased for the year ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2011 due to increases in allowance for IVA from 90% to 100% and other receivables from 50% to 100%.

The decrease in investment banking and investor relations expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 is due

to a decrease in equity financing during 2012 due to the focus of selling and the resulting funds obtained from the sale of American Copper Mining; compared to a focus on completing equity financing for the year ended December 31, 2011. In 2012, there were no sales of common stock of Tara Gold, only exercises of warrants, options and stock for services at Tara Minerals.

The decrease in compensation, officer employment contracts and bonuses was due to the controller position being outsourced starting in the third quarter of 2012, offset by additional personnel in all of 2012 and a decrease in options vested or awarded to officers. This area for 2012 consisted of $1,331,000 paid in cash or accrued for and $245,000 relating to options; 2011 consisted of $914,000 paid in cash or accrued for and $816,000 relating to options.

Professional fees for the year ended December 31, 2012 were due to legal and consulting services used for the negotiations, close and amendment of the agreement for the sale of American Copper Mining, and services due to operational focus on Champinon. Professional fees for the year ended December 31, 2011 consisted of consulting and legal services discussed in Item 3.

Tara Gold anticipates that its capital requirements during the twelve months ending December 31, 2013 will be:

Tara Minerals
Exploration and Development – Don Roman Groupings	$	2,665,000
Exploration and Development - Dixie Mining District, Idaho		3,237,000
Property taxes		44,000
General and administrative expenses		1,007,000
Tara Gold
Property taxes		1,000
General and administrative expenses		446,000
Total	$	7,400,000

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

Tara Minerals is continuing the planning and preparation necessary to bring the Don Roman mill into production in 2013. At the same time, the Company is engaging in planning and preparation for the development of the district, by initially focusing on the mineralized structures that could serve as start-up mine feed for the Don Roman plant. The exploration work-plan, that is being developed, will be focusing on the consistency of material in an effort to maximize recovery at the plant. In addition, all work will be done in a 43-101 compliant manner, with a focus on completing a technical report that further defines mineralized structures to establish reserves. This work will also support the expansion planning for increasing production later in 2013.

In addition to, and as a part of, development plans for the Don Roman district, during the second and third quarters of 2012, the Company also focused on plans to put the Champinon Iron Ore Project into production. Two benches were blasted, samples were assayed, and recovery work completed by Metcon Research. Site preparation, such as roadwork, retaining walls, pads, electrical panels, tailings pond, and scales were completed on time and within budget. Equipment was mobilized through a strategic alliance with a local company that was also contracted to provide equipment and buy the iron concentrate.

Table of Contents

On March 15, 2013, a Settlement Agreement and Release was entered into whereas Tara Minerals assigned its Champinon mining rights purchase contract, including all related obligations and acquisition payments, to Plathio Trading Mexico, SA de CV, Carnegie’s Mexican subsidiary. Under this Transfer Agreement, Tara Minerals retains mining and beneficial rights to known silver, zinc, and led vein structure present on the Champinon concession.

On March 15, 2013, Tara Minerals expanded its holdings to include a U.S. based mining district, referred to as the Dixie Mining District of central Idaho, USA. To date, the land package consists of 6,721 acres of both patented and unpatented mining claims. The optioned claims include previously mined veins with historic sampling of the exposed outcrops averaging 14 grams/tonne of gold. Tara's initial focus is to assess the previously unmined veins for their near-term production potential. Tara's technical team has already begun the assessment process, which includes sampling and a detailed review of several historical underground mining levels. Tara has also initiated the process to acquire production related permits and explore processing options, including contracting processing to third parties.

Tara Gold 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 May 2010 the Securities and Exchange Commission stopped the trading in Tara Gold’s common stock due to the fact that Tara Gold was delinquent in filing its 10-K and 10-Q reports. As a result of the SEC’s stop trading order, Tara Gold’s common stock was removed from the Pink Sheets and until July 18, 2011 traded only on an unsolicited basis. As a result of the Commission’s ruling on July 18, 2011 (see Item 3 above), all trading in Tara Gold’s stock ceased. In 2012, Tara Gold successfully filed a Form 10 which cleared SEC comments November 31, 2012. To begin trading once again Tara Gold will engage in the 15c211 process with a market maker in 2013.

On May 25, 2011, Tara Gold distributed one share of Tara Minerals for every 20 issued and outstanding shares of Tara Gold. Tara Gold plans to make additional distributions until all Tara Minerals’ shares held by Tara Gold have been distributed to Tara Gold’s shareholders. Once this is complete, Tara Gold will not have any interest in the properties owned by Tara Minerals or Adit.

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. Tara Gold and Tara Minerals are critically reviewing all properties for joint venture, option or sale opportunities.

Tara Gold 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 below.

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

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

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At December 31, 2012, Tara Gold had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements, we believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments.

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

Each period, receivables are reviewed for collectability. When a receivable has doubtful collectability we allow for the receivable until we are either assured of collection (and reverse the allowance) 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.

Property, plant, equipment, mine development and land

Mining concessions and acquisitions, exploration and development costs relating to mineral properties are deferred until the properties are brought into production, at which time they will be amortized on the unit of production method based on estimated recoverable reserves. If it is determined that the deferred costs related to a property are not recoverable over its productive life, those costs will be written down to fair value as a charge to operations in the period in which the determination is made. The amounts at which mineral properties and the related deferred costs are recorded do not necessarily reflect present or future values.

The recoverability of the book value of each property is assessed at least annually for indicators of impairment such as adverse changes to any of the following:

• estimated recoverable ounces of copper, lead, zinc, gold, silver or other precious minerals

• estimated future commodity prices

• estimated expected future operating costs, capital expenditures and reclamation expenditures

A write-down to fair value is recorded when the expected future cash flow is less than the net book value of the property or when events or changes in the property indicate that carrying amounts are not recoverable. This analysis is completed as needed, and at least annually. As of the date of this filing no events have occurred that would require the write-down of any assets. In addition, the carrying amounts of the group’s assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication of impairment exists, the asset’s recoverable amount will be reduced to its estimated fair value. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, no indications of impairment existed.

Certain mining plant and equipment included in mine development and infrastructure is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives from 3 – 10 years. Other non-mining assets are recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives from 3 – 10 years.

Financial and Derivative 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 ASC 480-10-S99 is consulted for temporary treatment, once a triggering event of any such instruments happens that removes the temporary element the Company appropriately reclassifies the instrument to debt or equity.

We periodically assess our financial and equity instruments to determine if they require derivative accounting. Instruments which may potentially require derivative accounting are conversion features of debt, equity, and common stock equivalents in excess of available authorized common shares, and contracts with variable share settlements. In the event of derivative treatment, we mark the instrument to market.

Exploration expenses and Technical Data

Exploration costs not directly associated with proven reserves on our mining concessions are charged to operations as incurred.

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 is expensed when incurred.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock based compensation is accounted for using the Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employee’s Topic of the FASB ASC, which establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. We determine the value of stock issued at the date of grant. We also determine at the date of grant the value of stock at fair market value or the value of services rendered (based on contract or otherwise) whichever is more readily determinable.

Shares issued to employees are expensed upon issuance.

Stock based compensation for employees is accounted for using the Stock Based Compensation Topic of the FASB ASC. We use the fair value method for equity instruments granted to employees and will use the Black-Scholes model for measuring the fair value of options, if issued. The stock based fair value compensation is determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the vesting periods.

Tara Gold Resources, Corp. (“Tara Gold” or the “Company”) was incorporated on October 14, 1999 under the laws of the State of Nevada as Westnet Communication Group. By special resolution of the shareholders, ~~the~~Westnet ~~Company~~Communication Group changed its name to Tara Gold Resources, Corp. on February 9, 2006.

In May 2005, Tara Gold, through its subsidiary Corporacion Amermin S.A. de C.V. (“Amermin”), began acquiring mining properties in Mexico. In May 2006, ~~the~~Tara ~~Company~~Gold formed ~~Tara~~Firma ~~Minerals~~Holdings Corp. (“~~Tara~~Firma ~~Minerals~~Holdings”), ~~which~~formerly ~~owns~~known ~~99.9%~~as ~~of the common stock of American Metal Mining S.A. de C.V., a Mexican corporation.~~ Tara Minerals ~~also owns 87% of the common stock of Adit Resources~~ Corp. ~~(“Adit”).~~ Tara Gold’s operations in Mexico ~~are~~were conducted through Amermin and ~~American~~Firma ~~Metal~~Holdings’ ~~Mining~~Mexico subsidiaries, since Mexican law provides that only Mexican corporations are allowed to own mining properties. All of Tara Gold’s operations in Mexico ~~are~~were conducted through its Mexican subsidiaries. ~~As of December 31, 2012, Tara Gold owned approximately 52% of the outstanding common stock of Tara Minerals.~~

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 these financial statements, references to "Company," "we," "our," and/or "us," refer to Tara Gold Resources Corp. and, unless the context indicates otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries.

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All amounts are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Variable interest entities (“VIE”) over which control is achieved through means other than voting rights and we are considered the primary beneficiary would be included in our consolidated financial statements in those periods in which this applies. When the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE consolidates the entity if control is achieved through means other than voting rights such as certain capital structures and contractual relationships. At December 31, 2012 and 2011 the Company has no joint ventures or VIEs.

The reporting currency of the Company, Tara Minerals and Adit is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of Amermin, 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 (loss) is recorded as other comprehensive gain (loss).

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

The Company’s significant accounting policies are:

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications, which have no effect on net loss, have been made in the prior period financial statements to conform to the current year presentation, specifically the 2013 presentation of assets held for sale, liabilities held for sale and the discontinued operations for Amermin.

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. Management routinely makes judgments on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. 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 year presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the Statements of Cash Flows, all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, ~~2012~~2014 and December 31, ~~2011~~2013.

Fair Value Accounting

As required by the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the FASB ASC, fair value is measured based on a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. As of December 31, 2014 the Company has no items that have been fair valued.

~~(An~~NOTES ~~Exploration~~TO ~~Stage~~THE ~~Company)~~FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2

Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;

Level 3

Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Concentrations

The Company maintains cash balances at highly-rated financial institutions in the United States. Each ~~Accounts at each~~ institution ~~are~~is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 for ~~interest~~deposit ~~bearing~~ accounts. The Company had ~~two and~~ no bank accounts in excess of $250,000, at December 31, ~~2012~~2014 and ~~2011~~2013, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts.

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

Each period, receivables are reviewed for collectability. When a receivable has doubtful collectability we allow for the receivable until we are either assured of collection (and reverse the allowance) 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.~~

Property, Plant, Equipment, Mine Development and Land

Mining concessions and acquisitions, exploration and development costs relating to mineral properties with proven reserves are deferred until the properties are brought into production, at which time they will be amortized on the unit of production method based on estimated recoverable reserves. If it is determined that the deferred costs related to a property are not recoverable over its productive life, those costs will be written down to fair value as a charge to operations in the period in which the determination is made. The amounts at which mineral properties and the related deferred costs are recorded do not necessarily reflect present or future values.

TARA GOLD RESOURCES CORP.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The recoverability of the book value of each property is assessed at least annually for indicators of impairment such as adverse changes to any of the following:

• estimated recoverable ounces of copper, lead, zinc, gold, silver or other precious minerals

• estimated future commodity prices

• estimated expected future operating costs, capital expenditures and reclamation expenditures

43A write-down to fair value is recorded when the expected future cash flow is less than the net book value of the property or when events or changes in the property indicate that carrying amounts are not recoverable. This analysis is completed as needed, and at least annually. As of the date of this filing no events have occurred that would require the write-down of any assets. In addition, the carrying amounts of the Company’s mining properties are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication of impairment exists, the asset’s recoverable amount will be reduced to its estimated fair value. As of December 31, 2013, respectively, no indications of impairment existed. As of December 31, 2014 the Company had no mining concessions or acquisitions.

Financial and Derivative 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, ~~once~~FASB aASC ~~triggering~~480-10-S99 ~~event~~is ofconsulted ~~any~~for ~~such~~temporary ~~instruments~~treatment. Once ~~happens~~an event takes place that removes the temporary element the Company appropriately reclassifies the instrument to debt or equity ~~in accordance with the Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity Topic of the FASB ASC, consulted for temporary treatment~~.

WeThe Company periodically ~~assess~~assesses ~~our~~its financial and equity instruments to determine if they require derivative accounting. Instruments which may potentially require derivative accounting are conversion features of debt, equity, and common stock equivalents in excess of available authorized common shares, and contracts with variable share settlements. In the event of derivative treatment, we mark the instrument to market.

Revenue ~~recognition~~Recognition

Revenue from the sale of concentrate and industrial metals will be recognized when ownership passes to the purchaser at which time the following conditions are met:

persuasive evidence that an agreement exists;

ii)

the risks and rewards of ownership pass to the purchaser including delivery of the product;

iii)

the selling price is fixed and determinable; or,

iv) ~~collectivity~~collectibility is reasonably assured.

Reclamation and ~~remediation~~Remediation ~~costs~~Costs (asset retirement obligations)

Reclamation costs are allocated to expense over the life of the related assets and are periodically adjusted to reflect changes in the estimated present value resulting from the passage of time and revisions to the estimates of either the timing or amount of the reclamation and abandonment costs.

Future remediation costs for reprocessing plant and buildings are accrued based on management’s best estimate, at the end of each period, of the undiscounted costs expected to be incurred at a site. Such cost estimates include, where applicable, ongoing remediation, maintenance and monitoring costs. Changes in estimates are reflected in earnings in the period an estimate is revised. There were no reclamation and remediation costs accrued as of December 31, 2012 or 2011.27

There were no reclamation and remediation costs accrued as of December 31, 2014 or 2013.

Exploration ~~expenses~~Expenses and Technical Data

Exploration costs not directly associated with proven reserves on our mining concessions are charged to operations as incurred.

Income ~~taxes~~Taxes

Income taxes are provided for using the asset and liability method of accounting in accordance with the Income Taxes Topic of the FASB ASC. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized by management. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The computation of limitations relating to the amount of such tax assets, and the determination of appropriate valuation allowances relating to the realization of such assets, are inherently complex and require the exercise of judgment. As additional information becomes available, wemanagement continually ~~assess~~assesses the carrying value of our net deferred tax assets.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock based compensation is accounted for using the Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employee’s Topic of the FASB ASC, which establishes standards for the accounting of transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. We determine the value of stock issued at the date of grant. We also determine, at the date of grant, the value of stock at fair market value or the value of services rendered (based on contract or otherwise), whichever is more readily determinable.

Shares issued to employees are expensed upon issuance.

~~Comprehensive Gain (Loss)~~28

Total accumulated comprehensive gain (loss) and the components of accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Shareholders’ Equity. Accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) is composed of foreign currency translation adjustment effects.

Total accumulated comprehensive gain (loss) and the components of accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) are presented in the Statements of Shareholders’ Equity. Accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) is composed of foreign currency translation adjustment effects or unrealized gains on stock owned by the Company which it then distributed to its owners in February 2015.

Net Loss per Common Share

Earnings per share is calculated in accordance with the Earnings per Share Topic of the FASB ASC. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic earnings (loss) per share. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares plus dilutive potential common shares outstanding. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of employee stock options, warrants, and other convertible securities, and are excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation in periods where the Company has incurred a net loss. ~~During~~For the ~~years~~year ended December 31, ~~2012 and 2011~~2013, ~~respectively,~~ the Company incurred a net loss, resulting in no ~~potentially~~ dilutive common shares. For the year ended December 31, 2014, basic and dilutive weighted average share are identical as the Company has no convertible instruments that would be included in the dilutive calculation.

Recently adopted and recently issued accounting guidance

In May 2011, the FASB 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.Issued

In ~~June~~May ~~2011~~2014, the FASB issued anAccounting ~~accounting~~Standards ~~standard~~Update ~~update which requires the presentation of components of other comprehensive income with the components of net income in either~~ (1“ASU”) aNo. ~~continuous statement of comprehensive income that contains two sections~~2014-09, ~~net~~"Revenue ~~income~~from ~~and~~Contracts ~~other~~with ~~comprehensive income~~Customers," or (2“ASU 2014-09”) ~~two~~which ~~separate~~requires ~~but~~an ~~consecutive~~entity ~~statements.~~to ~~This~~recognize ~~accounting~~the ~~standard~~amount ~~update~~of ~~eliminates~~revenue ~~the option~~ to ~~present~~which ~~components~~it ofexpects ~~other~~to ~~comprehensive~~be ~~income~~entitled asfor ~~part of~~ the ~~statement~~transfer of ~~shareholders’~~promised ~~equity,~~goods ~~and~~or isservices ~~effective~~to ~~for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011~~customers.

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.Adopted

46In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities (Topic 915), Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, "Consolidation” (“ASU 2014-10”). The amendments in ASU 2014-10 removes the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the Accounting Standards Codification, thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from U.S. GAAP. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to: (i) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity; (ii) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity; (iii) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged; and (iv) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. The presentation and disclosure requirements in ASC Topic 915, "Development Stage Entities" are no longer required for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The revised consolidation standards will take effect in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, however, early adoption is permitted. The Company has elected to early adopt the provisions of ASU 2014-10 for these audited consolidated financial statements.

b. In March 2008, Pershimco Resources transferred the mineral claims and obligations linked to Mariana and Mezquite prospect to Tara Gold. The obligations transferred to Tara Gold when Pershimco transferred Mariana and Mezquite were remaining debt payments of $190,000, which include value-added taxes of $25,907. The effective purchase price of this property is $171,451, plus value-added taxes.

As of December 31, 2012, the remaining notes payable on the property are $150,000, including applicable value-added tax.

As of December 31, 2012, Tara Gold could not determine that the note holder or Tara Gold had title to this property and has impaired the property. As of December 31, 2012, Tara Gold was in negotiations to amend its agreements with all vendors relating to the Mariana and Mesquite Prospect and remove the related notes payable.

c. In November 2008, the Company acquired “Centenario” from an independent third party. The property was purchased for an effective purchase price of $635,571, plus value-added taxes.

In June 2009, the Company and the note holder modified the initial 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 Tara Gold. 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) an 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.

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) decreased debt by $1,310,974; and 2) decreased recoverable value-added taxes by $218,309. At March 31, 2011, the amended purchase price of $635,571 was paid in full.

In March 2011, the Company purchased technical data pertaining to Centenario from the former owner for 603,044 shares of Tara Minerals’ 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 Tara Mineral’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. The shares were issued as follows: 416,100 (2011) and 186,944 (2012).

d. On April 2011, the Company acquired “La Verde” from an independent third party for $60,000, plus value-added taxes of $9,600. The Company paid $30,000 as a deposit for the concession mining deposit in 2010 which was applied to the effective price of the property and the remaining balance was paid in 2011.

The parties agreed that the value of the stock for the technical data was $2.00 per share for Tara Minerals’ 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. The shares were issued as follows: 370,000 (2011) and 166,232 (2012).

2013	$	947,334
2014		696,000
Total	$	1,643,334

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 December 31, 2012, the present value of future payments toward the notes payable on the contract is as follows:

~~Note~~As 4.of ~~Other~~December ~~assets~~31, ~~current~~2014 and ~~non-~~December 31, 2013, respectively, the Company’s other current assets consisted of prepaid expenses of $6,138 and $116,425, and security deposits of $0 and $21,684.

In September 2010, the Company signed an agreement to purchase three properties for a price of $1,000,000. In order to hold these properties, the Company made a cash deposit of $60,000. The Company is obligated to pay all the expenses, fees and general expenditures relating to the sale, up to a maximum of $500,000, which are deductible from the sales price. In March 2011, the Company received notification from Pacemaker Silver Mining S.A. de C.V. a wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary of El Tigre, indicating that they had rights to the three properties. Although this does not affect the Company’s specific right to the property, until the difference can be determined, the deposit was expensed in 2011.32

In 2011, the Company paid a $100,000 advance to the Tania Iron Ore Property vendor, against future royalty payments and $175,000 to the subcontractor at the Tania Iron Ore Property for property improvements. Although the Company is seeking the return of the $175,000 from the subcontractor for non-performance, a full allowance for the receivable has been recognized at December 31, 2012.

As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, the Company’s other current assets consisted of prepaid expenses of $54,020 and $116,500.

As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, the Company’s other assets had no advances and $175,000 towards the Champinon lease (see Note 2), security deposits of $24,581 and $32,752 and no goodwill and $12,028 (see Note 13 for the Sale of American Copper Mining).

Note 5. Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns in the United States (“U.S.”) and Mexican jurisdictions. In the U.S., Tara Gold files a standalone return; Tara Minerals and Adit file a consolidated tax return. In Mexico, Amermin and AMM file standalone tax returns, which were filed March 27, 2013. The U.S. returns for 2012 will be filed after the filing of these financial statements. No tax returns for the Company or any subsidiary of the Company are currently under examination by any tax authorities in their respective countries, except for routine tax reviews for AMM for January – December 2011.

Amermin’s 2007 tax return has been audited by the Mexican government, with their corresponding report dated January 13, 2011. An appeal to this report was filed March 10, 2011, but in conjunction with the sale of American Copper Mining in 2012, the Company paid the related lien and is taking action necessary towards seeking a refund from the Mexican tax authorities. The Company remains confident of a successful outcome of the refund as Amermin’s records indicate that, at the time of notification, all applicable taxes due from Amermin had been paid and the ownership of the Picacho property had been renegotiated to American Copper Mining with all related taxes payable by American Copper Mining having been paid. However, due to the length of time it takes for release of any refund, the Company has not reflected this refund as a receivable.

The provision for federal and state income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2012 includes elements of Tara Gold as a separate filing entity, Tara Minerals and Adit as a consolidated filing entity, and AMM and Amermin (Mexico Companies) as separate filing entities.

On October 28, 2009, Adit, the Company’s subsidiary, adopted the following stock option plans which have not been registered:

· Incentive Stock Option Plan

· Nonqualified Stock Option Plan

· Stock Bonus Plan

In October 2009, Adit granted four of its officer’s options under its Nonqualified Stock Option Plan for the purchase of 1,000,000 shares of common stock. The options have an exercise price of $0.05 per share; the options will vest at a rate of 20% per year; the first set of options vested on October 28, 2010 and is scheduled to expire on November 15, 2015. The options that vested in 2011 and 2010 were valued at $134,979 each year. In October 2012, all remaining options under the October 2009 grant were cancelled due to the sale of the sole mining concession of Adit. Due to the cancellation, the Company immediately recognized a $429,924 stock compensation expense.

In October 2009, Adit granted four of its officer’s bonus shares under its Stock Bonus Plan for 475,000 shares; 50% of the shares vested on October 28, 2010 and the remaining 50% vested on October 28, 2011. The stock bonuses were valued at $187,500 each year.

There were no issuances of instruments under the Adit plans in 2012.

The fair value of each option/warrant 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 Tara Minerals’ traded common stock. The expected term of options granted is estimated at half of the contractual term as noted in the individual option/warrant agreements and represents the period of time that management anticipates option/warrants 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 the grant for bonds with maturity dates at the estimated term of the options. Historically the Company has had no forfeitures of options or warrants, therefore, the Company uses a zero forfeiture rate.

Not applicable.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Francis Richard Biscan, Jr., Tara Gold’s Principal Executive Officer and Lynda R. Keeton-Cardno, Tara Gold’s Principal Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of Tara Gold’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 Tara Gold’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Tara Gold’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. As defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, Tara Gold’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer and implemented by Tara Gold’s Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of Tara Gold’s financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

− Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; − Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and − Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Tara Gold’s management evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012 based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or the COSO Framework. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of Tara Gold’s internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of those controls.

Based on this evaluation, Tara Gold’s management concluded that Tara Gold’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012.

There was no change in Tara Gold’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Tara Gold’s internal control over financial reporting.

Corporate Governance

We currently have no standing audit, compensation or nominating committees or committees performing similar functions, nor do we have written audit, compensation or nominating committee charters.

None of Tara Gold’ directors are independent as that term is defined in section 803 of listing standards of the NYSE Amex. Tara Gold believes all of its directors are qualified to act as such due to their longstanding relationship with Tara Gold.

Code of Ethics

Tara Gold has adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to its principal executive, financial, and accounting officers and persons performing similar functions.

A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days through the exercise of any stock option, warrant or other right. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest. Unless otherwise indicated, each of the shareholders named in the table below, or his or her family members, has sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares of our common stock

In the above table, “audit fees” are fees billed for services provided related to the audit of our annual financial statements, quarterly reviews of our interim financial statements and services normally provided by the independent accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal periods. “Audit-related fees” are fees not included in audit fees that are billed by the independent accountant for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements. “Tax fees” are fees billed by the independent accountant for professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. “All other fees” are fees billed by the independent accountant for products and services not included in the foregoing categories.

Audit fees represent amounts billed for professional services rendered for the audit of Tara Minerals’ annual financial statements and the review of Tara Minerals’ interim financial statements.
