INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Shareholders of Jaguar Mining Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Jaguar Mining Inc. which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, cash flows and shareholders’ equity for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2010 and notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.  We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.  The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.  In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances.  An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Jaguar Mining Inc. as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 and its consolidated results of operations and its consolidated cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2010 in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
 
The Shareholders and Board of Directors Jaguar Mining Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Jaguar Mining Inc. as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, cash flows and shareholders’ equity for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Jaguar Mining Inc. as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and its consolidated results of operations and its consolidated cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010 in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The supplementary information included in .2 of Form 40-F entitled “Schedule of Reconciliation between Canadian and U.S. GAAP" is presented for purposes of additional analysis and requirements under securities legislation. Such supplementary information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Jaguar Mining Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 21, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors of Jaguar Mining Inc.

We have audited Jaguar Mining Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Jaguar Mining Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and Attestation Report of Registrant’s Public Accounting Firm within its Form 40-F. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) 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.

In our opinion, Jaguar Mining Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Jaguar Mining Inc. as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, cash flows and shareholders’ equity for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010, and our report dated March 21, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(tabular dollar amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except per share amounts)

Years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009




1.
Nature of Business:
 
The activities of Jaguar Mining Inc. (the "Company") are directed towards developing and operating mineral projects in Brazil.
 
2.
Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted principles (CDN GAAP) using the following significant accounting policies and are expressed in United States dollars.

 
(a)
Existing Accounting Policies:
 
 
(i)
Consolidation:
 
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries; Mineração Serras do Oeste Ltda. (“MSOL”), Mineração Turmalina Ltda. (“MTL”) and Mineração Chega Tudo Ltda. (“MCT”).  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.
 
 
(ii)
Cash and cash equivalents:
 
The Company considers deposits in banks, certificates of deposit and short-term investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition to be cash and cash equivalents.  Cash held on deposit as security is classified as restricted cash (Note 7).
 
 
(iii)
Short-term Investments:
 
Short-term investments include short-term money market instruments with terms to maturity at the date of the acquisition of between three and twelve months. Short-term investments are classified as held-for-trading and recorded at fair value.
 
 
(iv)
Inventory:
 
Gold in process and ore in stockpiles are stated at the lower of the average total production cost or net realizable value.  Production costs include direct labour, benefits, direct material and other direct product costs including depletion and amortization.  Net realizable value represents estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less any further costs expected to be incurred to completion.
 
Raw materials and mine operating supplies are stated at the lower of cost, on a first-in first-out basis, or net realizable value.
 
The nature of the leaching process inherently limits the ability to precisely monitor inventory levels.  As a result, the metallurgical balancing process is monitored and the engineering estimates are refined based on actual results over time.  The ultimate recovery of gold from a leach pad will not be known until the leaching process is concluded.

(v)
Net smelter royalty:
 
The Company records its net smelter royalty at cost.  Amortization of the net smelter royalty is calculated on a unit of production basis.  Royalty revenue is recognized when the Company has reasonable assurance with respect to measurement and collectability.
 
 
(vi)
Property, plant and equipment:
 
The Company’s property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are amortized over the useful life of the asset as follows:
 
Processing plants
-
over the life of the plant, straight line
Vehicles
-
5 years, straight line
Equipment
-
5 -10 years, straight line
Leasehold improvements
-
over term of lease, straight line
Mining properties
-
unit of production method1
 
 
1Depletion of mining properties and amortization of preproduction and development costs are calculated and recorded on the unit-of-production basis over the mine’s estimated and economically proven and probable reserves of the mine and the portion of mineralization expected to be classified as reserves.
 
 
(vii)
Impairment:
 
The carrying value of all categories of property, plant and equipment and net smelter royalty are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the recoverable value may be less than the carrying amount.  The net recoverable amount is based on estimates of undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be recovered from specific assets or groups of assets through their use or future disposition.  Estimated future net cash flows are calculated using estimates of future recoverable reserves and resources, future commodity prices and expected future operating and capital costs.  An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying value of an asset held for use exceeds the sum of the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows from its use.  An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value.  Assumptions, such as gold price, discount rate, and expenditures, underlying the fair value estimates are subject to risks and uncertainties.  Impairment charges are recorded in the reporting period in which determination of impairment is made by management.
 
 
(viii)
Mineral exploration projects:
 
The Company classifies exploration costs as green field or brown field according to the expected recoverability of the projects.  Green field costs are exploration costs from the first evaluation of the target area through to the completion of a scoping study.  All costs related to green field are expensed and included in exploration costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 
Exploration costs, subsequent to confirmation of an area’s potential, are classified as brown field.  The Company considers its brown field exploration costs to have the characteristics of property, plant and equipment.  As such, the Company defers all brown field exploration costs, including acquisition costs, field exploration and field supervisory costs relating to specific properties until those properties are brought into production, at which time, they will be amortized on a unit of production basis based on their estimated economic life or until the properties are abandoned, sold, or considered to be impaired in value, at which time an appropriate charge will be made.  After a mine property has been brought into commercial production the related costs will be transferred to property, plant and equipment.

The recoverability of the amounts shown for mining interests is dependent on the existence of economically recoverable reserves, the ability to obtain financing to complete the development of such reserves and meet obligations under various agreements, and the success of future operations or dispositions.
 
 
(ix)
Income taxes:
 
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method.  Under this method of tax allocation, future income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax bases (temporary differences).  Future income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences are likely to reverse.  The effect on future income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is included in income in the period in which the change is substantively enacted.  The amount of future income tax assets recognized is limited to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
 
 
(x)
Reclamation costs:
 
The Company recognizes the liability arising from legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal operation of a long-lived asset.  The fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation is recorded in the period in which it is incurred.  When the liability is initially recorded, the cost is capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset.  The Company amortizes the amount added to the asset using the depreciation method established for the related asset.  The amortization expense is included in the statement of operations and accounted for in accumulated amortization.  An accretion expense in relation with the discounted liability over the remaining life of the mining properties is accounted for in the statement of operations and added to the asset retirement obligation.  The liability is adjusted at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the obligation.  Upon settlement of the liability, a gain or loss is recorded.
 
 
(xi)
Foreign currency translation:
 
The U.S. dollar is considered to be the functional currency of the Company and of its subsidiaries.  Monetary assets and liabilities of the Company's Brazilian operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, and non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the historical rate of exchange.  Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the actual rates of exchange.  Foreign currency gains and losses are recognized in income.

(xii)
Revenue recognition:
 
The Company produces gold doré which is further refined by a third party and sold to international banks and other financial institutions.  Revenue is recognized when title is transferred, delivery is completed, and when the Company has reasonable assurance with respect to measurement and collectability.
 
 
(xiii)
Stock-based compensation:
 
The Company has stock-based compensation plans, which are described in Notes 13(c) and 14.  The Company accounts for all equity-settled stock-based payments using a fair value based method incorporating the Black-Scholes model.
 
Under the fair value based method, compensation cost attributable to options granted is measured at fair value at the grant date and amortized on a straight line basis over the vesting period.  No compensation cost is recognized for options that employees forfeit if they fail to satisfy the service requirement for vesting.
 
The Company treats awards that call for settlement in cash, including share appreciation rights and performance awards, as liabilities. The value of these liabilities is re-measured at each reporting period based on the changes in the intrinsic values of the awards.  Any gains or losses on re-measurement are recorded in the statement of operations.  For any forfeiture of the awards, the accrued compensation cost will be adjusted by decreasing compensation cost in the period of the forfeiture.
 
 
(xiv)
Net loss per share:
 
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of outstanding options and warrants and their equivalents are reflected in diluted net loss per share by the application of the treasury method. The computation of diluted net loss per share assumes conversion, exercise or contingent issuance of securities only when such conversion, exercise or issuance would have a dilutive effect on net loss per share.
 
 
(xv)
Use of estimates:
 
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, particularly valuation of mineral properties, recoverable taxes, future tax assets and liabilities, asset retirement obligations and measurement of inventories and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 
(xvi)
Stripping costs:
 
Costs associated with the removal of overburden and other mine waste materials that are incurred in the production phase of mining operations are included in the cost of the inventory produced in the period in which they are incurred, except when the charges represent a betterment to the mineral property.  Charges represent a betterment to the mineral property when the stripping activity provides access to reserves that will be produced in future periods that would not have been accessible without the stripping activity.  The Company capitalizes costs related to a betterment of the mineral property.  The charges are amortized over the reserve accessed by the stripping activity using the unit of production method.

    (xvii)
Financial instruments- recognition and measurement
 
The Company classifies all financial instruments as either held to maturity, held-for-trading, loans and receivables, available for sale or other financial liabilities.
 
 
Held-to-maturity financial assets are initially recognized at their fair values and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Impairment losses are charged to net earnings in the period in which they arise.
 
 
Held-for-trading financial instruments are carried at fair value with changes in fair value charged or credited to net earnings in the period in which they arise.
 
 
Loans and receivables are initially recognized at their fair values, with any resulting premium or discount from the face value being amortized to income or expense using the effective interest method.  Impairment losses are charged to net earnings in the period in which they arise.
 
 
Available-for-sale financial instruments are carried at fair value with changes in the fair value charged or credited to other comprehensive income.  Impairment losses relating to an other than temporary impairment are charged to net earnings in the period in which they arise.
 
 
Other financial liabilities are initially measured at cost, net of transaction costs, or at amortized cost depending upon the nature of the instrument with any resulting premium or discount from the face value being amortized to income or expense using the effective interest method.
 
 
The following is a summary of the financial instruments outstanding and classifications as at December 31, 2010:
 
Cash and cash equivalents
Held-for-trading
Restricted cash
Held-for-trading
Accounts receivable
Loans and receivables
Forward foreign exchange derivative contracts
Held-for-trading
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities
Other liabilities
Notes payable
Other liabilities
Deferred compensation liabilities
Other liabilities
 
The Company has used certain derivative financial instruments, principally forward sales contracts, to manage commodity price exposure on gold sales and forward foreign exchange contracts, to manage the Company’s exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates.  Derivative financial instruments are used for risk management purposes and not for generating trading profits.  Derivative financial instruments are not accounted for as hedges.  Unrealized gains and losses on the derivative financial instruments are recognized in the statement of operations.  Unrealized gains and losses on forward sales contracts are a result of the difference between the forward spot price of the gold and the forward sales contract price.  Unrealized gains and losses on forward foreign exchange contracts are a result of the difference between the forward currency contract price and the spot price of the Brazilian reais (R$).

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Implemented:
 
 
(i)
Business combinations:
 
In January 2009, the CICA issued Section 1582, “Business Combinations,” effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011.  Earlier adoption of Section 1582 is permitted. This pronouncement further aligns Canadian GAAP with US GAAP and IFRS and changes the accounting for business combinations in a number of areas.  It establishes principles and requirements governing how an acquiring company recognizes and measures in its financial statements identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, and goodwill acquired.  The section also establishes disclosure requirements that will enable users of the acquiring company’s financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of its business combinations.
 
 
(ii)
Consolidated financial statements and non-controlling interests:
 
In January 2009, the CICA issued Section 1601, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” and Section 1602, “Non-Controlling Interests,” effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Earlier adoption of these recommendations is permitted. These pronouncements further align Canadian GAAP with US GAAP and IFRS. Sections 1601 and 1602 change the accounting and reporting for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent.  Non-controlling interests are to be presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity but separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest is to be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income. In addition, these pronouncements establish standards for a change in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary and the valuation of retained non-controlling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated.  They also establish reporting requirements for providing sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners.

 
(iii)
Financial instruments - recognition and measurement:

On July 1, 2009, the CICA amended Section 3855 with regard to determining when a prepayment option in a host debt instrument is closely related to the host instrument and the amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011.  The amendment states that if the exercise price of a prepayment option compensates the lender for an amount equivalent to the present value of the lost interest for the remaining term of the host instrument, the feature is considered closely related to the host contract in which it is embedded.

 
(iv)
International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)

In January 2006, the CICA’s Accounting Standards Board (“AcSB”) formally adopted the strategy of replacing Canadian GAAP with IFRS for Canadian enterprises with public accountability.  On February 13, 2008 the AcSB confirmed that the use of IFRS will be required in 2011 for publicly accountable profit oriented enterprises.  Commencing with the interim period ended March 31, 2011 the Company will present restated comparative fiscal 2010 financial statements for annual and interim periods to be prepared in accordance with IFRS including the restatement of the opening balance sheet as at January 1, 2010.

Financial Instruments:

 
(i)
Credit risk:

Credit risk is the risk that a third party might fail to discharge its obligations under the terms  of a financial instrument which comprise of cash held with banks, derivative financial instruments (foreign exchange forward contracts with positive fair values) and credit exposure to customers. The credit risk is limited to the carrying amount on the balance sheet. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held through large financial institutions in Brazil, Canada and the US. The Company manages its credit risk by entering into transactions with high credit quality counterparties, limiting the amount of exposure to each counterparty where possible and monitoring the financial condition of the counterparties.

The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to derivative financial instruments, but does not expect any counterparties to fail to meet their obligations.  The Company deals with only highly rated counterparties, normally major financial institutions.  The Company is exposed to credit risk when there is a positive fair value of derivative financial instruments at a reporting date.

The Company’s exposure for the sale of gold is limited because a sales receipt from a financial institution must be received prior to shipment of the gold.

 
(ii)
Liquidity risk:
 
Liquidity risk is the risk the Company will not be able to meet the obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure as outlined in Note 18.  The Company has $19.4 million of working capital at December 31, 2010.  Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, current portion of notes payable, current taxes payable, and the current portions of deferred compensation and other liabilities are due within the current operating period.  The Company’s financial liabilities and other commitments are listed in Note 19. Subsequent to December 31, 2010 the Company completed the issuance of $103.5 million (net proceeds of $99.3 million) of 5.5% senior unsecured convertible notes (Note 20).
 
 
(iii)
Currency risk:
 
The Company is exposed to the financial risk related to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates. The Company operates in Brazil, Canada and the United States. Financial instruments that impact the Company’s net earnings due to currency fluctuations include: Brazilian reais and Canadian dollar denominated cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, recoverable taxes, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable and taxes payable.

The table below summarizes a sensitivity analysis for significant unsettled currency risk exposure with respect to the Company’s financial instruments as at December 31, 2010 with all other variables held constant. It shows how net income would have been affected by changes in the relevant risk variable that were reasonably possible at that date.

(iv)
Interest rate risk:

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its outstanding variable rate borrowings. Interest on the Company’s short-term and long-term debt is based on both fixed and variable interest rates. The Company managed its risk by entering into long-term agreements with fixed interest rates on 99% of its debt with interest rates ranging from 0% to 6.35% per annum.

 
(v)
Commodity price risk:

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to gold prices that are affected by various forces including global supply and demand, interest rates, exchange rates, inflation or deflation and the political and economic conditions of oil and major gold-producing countries. The Company has no forward gold production hedged.

There is no price risk relating to gold prices at December 31, 2010 as there was no doré in inventory on that date (Note 3).

 
(vi)
Stock - based compensation risk:

The Company is exposed to the risk of increased compensation expense due to the increase in the Company’s share price.

The Company’s compensation expense is subject to volatility due to the movement of share price and its impact on the value of certain stock-based compensation programs.  These programs, as described in Note 14 include Deferred Stock Units (“DSUs”), Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) and Share Appreciation Rights (“SARs”).  Under the program, the DSUs and RSUs represent rights to receive cash settlement from the Company equivalent to the market price of the common shares on the date of exercise.  The SARs represent rights to receive cash settlement from the Company equivalent to the amount by which the market price of the Company’s common shares at the time of exercise exceeds the market price of such shares at the time of grant.  For the year ended December 31, 2010 a strengthening or weakening of $1.00 in the price of the Company’s common shares would have had an unfavourable or favourable impact of approximately $1.6 million in income before income taxes, respectively.

(vii)
Fair value estimation:
 
CICA Handbook Section 3862 Financial Instruments - Disclosures prescribes the following three-level fair value hierarchy for disclosure purposes based on the transparency of the inputs used to measure the fair values of the assets and liabilities:

 
Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) of identical instruments in active markets that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 
Level 2 - inputs are quoted prices of similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices used in a valuation model that are observable for that instrument; and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 
Level 3 - one or more significant inputs used in a valuation technique are unobservable for the instruments.

Determination of fair value and the resulting hierarchy requires the use of observable market data whenever available.  The classification of a financial instrument in the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement of fair value.
 
The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as at December 31, 2010 are as follows:
                   
Financial assets
 
Quoted Prices

1.
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are recorded at their fair values.  Accounts payable and accrued liabilities and other liabilities approximate their fair values due to their immediate or short terms of maturity.
 
2.
The fair value of forward exchange contracts is based on their listed market price, if available. If a listed market price is not available, then fair value is estimated by discounting the difference between the contractual forward price and the current forward price for the residual maturity of the contract using a risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds).
 
3.
The fair value of the notes payable was based on their market price, if available.  If a market price is not available then the fair value is determined by discounting the future cash flows at the current market rate of interest available to the Company.
 
4.
The fair value of stock appreciation rights (”SAR”) liabilities is measured using the Black-Scholes model and is recognized over the service or vesting period.   The carrying value, measured using intrinsic value, of the Deferred Stock Unit (“DSU”) and Restricted Stock Unit (“RSU”) liabilities approximates their fair values.

(a)
Paciência Project

The Paciência Project includes the following properties, Santa Isabel, Morro do Adao, Rio de Peixe, Palmital, Ouro Fino, Marzagão, Bahu, Monges and Ajuda.

In 2009 the Marzagão and Palmital properties commenced commercial production and were reclassified to PPE.
 
In November 2003, the Company closed on a property acquisition agreement dated April 17, 2003 whereby the Company acquired certain mineral rights from AngloGold for $818,000.  The mineral rights acquired relate to the following properties in the Paciência project, Santa Isabel, Morro do Adão, Bahu and Marzagão and the following properties in the Caeté Expansion Project, Catita and Camará. The Company will also pay a sliding scale NSR, from 1.5% to 4.5% of gross revenue, on gold and other precious metals produced from the properties, based on precious metal prices at the time of production.

If the Company discovers, on a concession basis, in excess of 750,000 ounces of gold over the measured and indicated resources used in the agreement, AngloGold has the right to buy-in up to 70% of that concession for a predetermined price.  If this were to occur, the Company would retain a 30% interest and would receive the same sliding scale NSR payment from AngloGold as the one mentioned above.

On November 21, 2007 the Company reached an agreement with AngloGold whereby it transferred Zone C to AngloGold for an agreed upon value of $8.1 million.  Part of the purchase price was satisfied by the settlement of $350,000 in existing liabilities payable by MSOL to AngloGold.  The remaining balance will be paid through a reduction of future royalty payments on the sliding scale NSR for the properties purchased from AngloGold in 2003.  MSOL will not be required to make royalty payments on the equivalent of approximately 280,000 ounces of gold.  As at December 31, 2007 the Company recorded a gain of $381,000 based on the difference between the carrying value of Zone C and the amount of the liabilities settled in the transaction.  Since the future royalty payments are contingent on the production and sale of gold at the related properties, the Company is recognizing additional gains over the life of the mine as royalty obligation is reduced.  During 2010 additional gains of $1.8 million (2009 - $2.0 million, 2008 - $452,000) were recognized relating to this property (Notes 8(a)(ii), 17).

 
(b)
Turmalina

The costs relate to the Satinoco property (Ore Body D) adjacent to the Turmalina plant and mine, not currently in commercial production.  Effective September 30, 2009, the Satinoco (Ore Body C) property was reclassified to PPE upon commercial production.  The property is subject to a royalty payable to a third party (Note 8 (a)(i)).

(d)
Gurupi Project
 
On December 2, 2009, the Company completed its acquisition of MCT from Companhia Nacional de Mineração, (“CNM”), a subsidiary of Kinross Gold Corporation (“Kinross”).  Jaguar has a 100% equity ownership of MCT, which holds all of the mineral licenses for the Gurupi Project, a gold project located in the state of Maranhão, Brazil.  In addition, Kinross has granted a right of first refusal to Jaguar on an adjacent exploration property.  The Company satisfied the purchase price for MCT by issuing to CNM 3,377,354 Jaguar common shares.
 
The transaction was accounted for as an asset purchase for accounting purposes with the final purchase price allocated as follows:

Due to CVRD:
 
Relates to purchase of mineral rights for the Roça Grande property.
 
The Company acquired an option to obtain mineral rights at the Roça Grande gold property from CVRD under an agreement dated November 28, 2005 for 3.5% of the market value of CVRD’s estimated resources plus 2.5% of any additional resources determined by Jaguar less expenses associated with the transfer.  During 2007 Jaguar completed an audit of CVRD’s resource estimate and exercised its option to purchase the mineral rights for approximately $7.8 million.  On April 8, 2008, the Company agreed to pay an additional $5.5 million for a total of $13.3 million, based upon additional resources discovered during a final review of the estimated mineral resources available.  The timing of these payments is dependent upon CVRD’s registration of the mineral rights transfer with the Departamento Nacional de Producao Mineral “DNPM”. During 2010 the Company paid $3.2 million (2009 - $1.1 million) relating to these mineral rights. The Company expects to execute the final transfer agreement and pay $2.3 million of the purchase price in 2011 and the remaining balance of $6.7 million in 2012. 

According to CICA Handbook Section 3855 the note payable was recognized at its fair value and the discount is being amortized using the effective interest method.

Stock Appreciation Rights

A Stock Appreciation Rights Plan (“SAR”) was established which allows the Company to grant performance awards to senior officers, employees or consultants of the Company.  SAR’s call for eventual settlement in cash based upon the increase in price of the Company’s common stock.

On December 8, 2009 the Board amended the SAR plan retroactively to provide for accelerated vesting such that one third will vest upon issuance, one third will vest one year after grant, and one third will vest two years after grant.  SAR participants are permitted to select a pre-determined price at which the SARs would be paid at an amount equal to the difference between the market price at the date of grant and the pre-determined price upon both the pre-determined price being attained and the vesting of the SAR.  If no pre-determined price is selected by the participant or if the pre-determined price is not attained before the three year period, the payout amount will be the increase in price of the Company’s common stock from the grant date to the expiry date.
