EXPLANATORY NOTE

Timmins Gold Corp. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 40-F initially filed on March 30, 2016 (the “2015 Annual Report”), solely to revise the report of the Company’s independent auditor, Deloitte LLP (the “Auditor Report”), contained in the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements filed as Exhibit 99.3 to the 2015 Annual Report. Specifically, the Auditor Report originally filed with the 2015 Annual Report referred to such consolidated financial statements as being presented in accordance with “International Financial Reporting Standards”, and such report is being updated to refer to “International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board”. Except as specifically provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the 2015 Annual Report remains entirely unmodified, regardless of events that may have occurred subsequent to the initial filing date. A revised Exhibit 99.3, together with a consent of Deloitte LLP and certifications under Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, is filed herewith.

SIGNATURE

            Pursuant to the requirements of the Exchange Act, the Company certifies that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form 40-F and has duly caused this annual report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereto duly authorized.
