FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements for Brazil Minerals, Inc. reflect current expectations, as of the date of this Annual Report, and involve certain risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward- looking statements as a result of various factors. Factors that could cause future results to materially differ from the recent results or those projected in forward-looking statements include: unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits, but also from finding mineral deposits that, though present, are insufficient in quantity and quality to return a profit from production; market fluctuations; government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals, and environmental protection; competition; the loss of services of key personnel; unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, sabotage, government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of infrastructure as well as general economic conditions.

PART I

Item 1. Description of Business.

Brazil Minerals, Inc. ("Brazil Minerals", the "Company", "we", "us", or "our"), together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in the business of acquiring controlling positions or significant positions with oversight roles in companies in Brazil in the minerals area or in industries related to minerals. We consolidate the results of our controlled subsidiaries in this Annual Report.

In 2013, our initial year of operations under the current business model and management team, we produced rough diamonds and gold for sale. In 2014, we added polished diamonds. In 2015, we added sand and by the end of April 2015 expect to add the first industrialized sand product, mortar. In the medium term, we believe that our two products with the greatest profitability will be polished diamonds and mortar.

Business Developments

Some of our developments in 2014 include:

(1)

We finalized the acquisition of 100% of Mineração Duas Barras Ltda. ("MDB"), a Brazilian company. MDB owns a mining concession for diamonds, gold, and sand. Its operations are all open-air. It also owns the largest plant in Latin America for the recovery of alluvial diamonds and gold. In addition to the mining concession, MDB also owns one additional mineral right for diamonds and gold.

A Canadian company, Vaaldiam Resources Ltd. ("Vaaldiam"), performed detailed geological studies in MDB's mining concession leading to the publication of an NI 43-101 technical report in 2007 and an updated NI 43-101 technical report in 2008 (the "Technical Reports"), as required by the rules of the Canadian securities administrator. The technical report from 2008 shows mineralized materials amounting to 1,639,200 cubic meters with the following concentrations for diamonds and gold: 0.16 carats of diamonds per cubic meter and 182 milligrams of gold per cubic meter. Furthermore, MDB has submitted its "Plano de Aproveitamento Econômico" (the "Feasibility Study"), a bankable feasibility study, to DNPM in accordance with the mining regulations of Brazil. The Company does not claim that the Technical Reports and/or Feasibility Study are compliant with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Industry Guide 7. Under the SEC's Industry Guide 7, no assertion can be made about reserves; moreover, Industry Guide 7 does not recognize the term "resources."

(2)

We acquired 50% of RST Recursos Minerais Ltda. ("RST"), a Brazilian company. RST owns 10 mining concessions and 12 other mineral rights, all for diamonds and gold. RST areas are located near the MDB plant;

(3)

We licensed an additional 3 mineral rights areas from the Brazilian government for diamonds and gold. The combination of all of the mining concessions and mineral rights controlled by us provides availability of a large number of areas for diamond and gold exploration, which could last for decades;

(4)

We performed all of the necessary studies mandated by the Brazilian mining department and thereafter sand was added in January 2015 as a mineral substance to MDB's mining concession. Sand is found at surface level, has very low cost of extraction, and high local demand for construction;

(5)

The Company voluntarily registered its common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Emerging Growth Company Status

We may be deemed to be an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or JOBS Act. As long as we remain an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not "emerging growth companies" including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding an annual nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and seeking nonbinding stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We may take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an "emerging growth company."

Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, will be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

We will remain an "emerging growth company" for up to five years, although we would cease to be an "emerging growth company" prior to such time if we have more than $1 billion in annual revenue, more than $700 million in market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

CNCD ("Cadastro Nacional do Comércio de Diamantes"): Brazil's national registry of diamond production, maintained by DNPM.

COPAM ("Conselho Estadual de Política Ambiental"): The Brazilian state-level environmental policy council, part of SEMAD (which is defined below).

DNPM ("Departamento Nacional de Produção Mineral"): Brazil's national mining department, the federal entity that regulates mining in Brazil.

GIA (Gemological Institute of America): The GIA is a premier nonprofit laboratory for the grading and certification of diamonds. In 1953 the GIA developed its diamond grading system and the four Cs (color, carat weight, clarity, and cut) as a standard to compare and evaluate the quality of polished diamonds.

Mineralized Material: Mineralized material is mineralization that has been sufficiently sampled at close enough intervals to reasonably assume continuity and support an estimate of tonnage and an average grade of the selected metals or salable product. A deposit of this sort does not qualify as a reserve until a comprehensive evaluation, based upon unit costs, grade, recoveries and other factors, concludes economic and legal feasibility. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves.

Mineral Rights: In Brazil, rights related to the mining of subsoil minerals, as guaranteed by the Brazilian Constitution and further regulations. Mineral rights have different gradations ranging from request for initial permit to perform research, to permitted research area, to mining concession.

Mining Concession ("Concessão de Lavra" or "Portaria de Lavra" as used in Brazil): The official permit from DNPM that allows the owner of the concession to mine specified minerals in perpetuity, as long as continuous observance of the mining code is followed. Normally, in Brazil, the cost of obtaining a mining concession from start on a greenfield project may reach hundreds of thousands of dollars and take in excess of five years.

Polícia Federal: Brazil's federal police, loosely an equivalent to the Federal Bureau of Investigations.

Rapaport: Short for the Rapaport Diamond Report, a leading newsletter with observed diamond market prices, widely used in the diamond industry.

Markets

The market for rough and polished diamonds is global and we have attracted interest from buyers from several countries. We have not depended on any one or only a few customers to purchase our rough or polished diamonds.

The price of our rough diamonds is mostly determined by the overall global market. Our rough diamonds sell for approximately $130 per carat. For each lot available, we usually have several interested and potential buyers. The largest rough diamond mined by us has been 4.01 carats. Buyers of our rough diamonds state that essentially all of them are able to be polished, usually in India where there is a large number of companies in the cutting and polishing industry employing high technology and relatively inexpensive labor.

The price for our polished diamonds is determined by the four C's (color, carat weight, clarity, and cut), roughly in that order of importance. The Rapaport value of our polished diamonds that had been graded at GIA has been $3,250 per carat. The highest color grade we obtained from GIA for a polished diamond from our production was "E", the 2^nd highest possible grade. The best clarity was VVS1, the 2^nd best clarity possible. The majority of our diamonds are graded F-G for color and VVS2-VS2 for clarity.

Even though the market for gold is global, we have focused on Brazilian buyers. There is more local customer demand than we have supply of gold bars available for sale.

The price of the 96%-purity level gold bars that we sell is tightly correlated to the global price of gold. Our gold sales prices per ounce, adjusting for 100% purity, are usually within a few percentage points of the gold price set globally on a daily basis.

The market for our sand is local, driven by demands of residential and commercial construction. There are a very large number of local buyers for our sand. Our sand was analyzed at the premier analytical laboratory in Brazil and by specialized consultants, and confirmed to have very high silica levels and low organic matter, making it highly sought after for industrial uses or construction applications.

Demand

Demand for our products has been robust. We are constrained by production bottlenecks, costs of production, and logistical issues, not by availability of buyers or demand for any product.

There is an increase in worldwide demand for diamonds, primarily driven by the improvement in the U.S. economy and continued repressed demand from emerging markets such as China, India, and Brazil. Gold has strong demand in Brazil for both jewelry and as investment. Sand's demand is robust given a lack of any other material amount of sand availability for a radius of approximately 200 miles from our plant. We believe the demand for industrialized sand products, such as mortar, will be equally strong.

Distribution

Our polished diamonds are either sold locally to jewelry chains in Brazil or exported to the U.S. Our rough diamonds and gold bars are currently sold mostly to Brazilian companies, some of which are subsidiaries of diamond companies headquartered in Belgium and India. Sand is sold to local stores and contractors. Mortar may be sold under private label to large nationwide firms or by our own brand, or a combination thereof.

- 4 -

Competition

Diamonds, gold, and sand production are difficult fields to penetrate due to regulatory requirements, long wait times for permitting, and limited availability of new resource areas.

Our competitive position among suppliers of diamonds and gold is particularly strong because we have all of the necessary licenses in place in our operations. Therefore, our merchandise, whether rough diamonds, polished diamonds, or gold is able to be purchased openly and without restrictions since all of the supporting proof of provenance is available and in good order. Other producers that lack operational licenses do not enjoy our position and can only sell into the "black market".

A secondary reason for our strong competitive position is that the diamonds from the Jequitinhonha River valley are known in Brazil and in global diamond centers to be of generally high quality. Since our sources of diamonds are secondary valley deposits, it is presumed that the primary kimberlitic source of such diamonds was pierced by the river millions of years ago. Therefore, a process of erosion occurred which resulted in smaller, but well proportioned, "hardy" gems. These gems are fairly easy to be cut and polished, yielding appealing diamonds without the need for any post-production enhancements such as laser work.

We have very little competition from in-natura sand providers as simply there are no licensed sand mines in a large radius around our location in Brazil.

Seasonality

MDB's ability to mine diamonds and gold is highly seasonal. The rainy season in the northern area of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, lasts from December through April. We expect that during these months MDB's revenues will be substantially lower than during other periods.

Our sand is easily dried and therefore we do not believe that it will be as seasonal as mining for diamonds and gold. Mortar production will be mostly unaffected by the weather.

Raw Materials

Brazil Minerals does not directly utilize any significant amount of raw materials. All of the raw materials needed for our business model are readily available from numerous different suppliers and at market-driven prices.

Intellectual Property

Brazil Minerals does not currently own any trademarks, service marks, or patents.

Government Regulation

General

The Brazilian mining industry is highly regulated; permitting and authorizations are complex and time consuming. Our operations in Brazil are in compliance with federal, state, and municipal regulations.

There is no governmental control of the selling of our diamonds (whether rough or polished), gold, sand, and upcoming industrialiazed sand products.

Mining Regulation and Compliance

Our subsidiary, MDB, has title to both a mining concession and a mineral right, further described below. MDB does not own the land or surface rights atop these claims. In Brazil, the mineral right and the land on top of it are commonly held by different owners. The Brazilian Constitution protects the rights of the owner of a mineral right to explore such claim, and there is jurisprudence that mineral rights trumpet surface rights.

- 5 -

MDB owns the title to the mining concession, or "Concessão de Lavra",number 265 awarded by DNPM. MDB's mining concession covers an area of 170.89 hectares, or approximately 422 acres, and allows mining of diamonds, gold, and sand. All mining is open air. Sand depots are located at surface level. Diamonds and gold are located in gravel layers 10 to 30 meters below ground level.

There are no liens or other encumbrances on MDB's mining concession. The mining concession is a federal claim in Brazil. This mining concession has no termination date; it is held in perpetuity by MDB and for as long as continuous observance of the mining code and regulations are followed, this claim will be in good standing. The claim can also be in good standing even if there is no continued mining, if MDB were to file with DNPM for a hiatus from mining; such requests are normally granted for periods of up to three years. MDB has no minimum payments to maintain MDB's mining concession.

Brazilian law guarantees the owner of the land on top of a mining concession the payment of a royalty of at least 0.1% of all revenues from such concession. However, most Brazilian mining companies negotiate with the landowner and pay a higher royalty rate as an incentive for greater cooperation. MDB has a contract that pays the landowner a 6% royalty rate on any sales of rough diamonds and gold.

Export Regulation

The export of rough diamond from Brazil complies with the United Nations Kimberley Process certification system of which Brazil is a signatory country. This system was implemented by a large number of member countries of the United Nations to marginalize and prevent entrance to the diamond marketplace of those gems produced in areas where human exploitation and other specific illicit activities exist. To our knowledge, Brazil was never a jurisdiction that had any issues of these types.

The implementation of the Kimberley Process certification system in Brazil was established with the passage of Federal Law 10743 in 2003. The regulations surrounding the issuance of the Certificate of the Kimberley Process were achieved by the Ordinance 192 of 2007 from DNPM. According to the current DNPM regulations, every diamond producer diamond must register itself in CNCD (see in Definitions), and update the information periodically. Every semester, DNPM visits and inspects the diamond producing property and verifies the information contained in the CNCD. For a diamond producer that is in compliance with the CNCD, the issuance of a Kimberley Process certificate by the DNPM with respect to each lot for export usually takes two to four weeks. As part of the certification, the exact lot of rough diamonds to be exported is sealed at DNPM, and receives the necessary paperwork needed for export which next goes for approval of Brazil's Receita Federal (see in Definitions), normally obtained within a week.

The procedure for the export of polished diamonds, gold and other commodities is regulated by Receita Federal (see in Definitions), and the exporter must obtain a license to export via SISCOMEX (see in Definitions). We have obtained SISCOMEX authorizations. As part of the SISCOMEX procedures, when polished diamonds are exported, they must be brought to an office of Receita Federal where they are weighed and sealed. The sealed container can be exported or carried through ports of exit of Brazil. There is no cost to maintain the export license active.

Environmental Regulation and Compliance

We are in compliance with environmental laws in our applicable jurisdictions. The Company estimates that it costs at most $50,000 annually to currently maintain compliance with environmental regulations.

In Minas Gerais, the Brazilian state where MDB is located, the duties of environment regulation are exercised by COPAM (see in Definitions), a unit of SEMAD (see in Definitions). Additionally, SUPRAM (see in Definitions), following guidelines from SEMAD, coordinates the implementation of activities related to environmental compliance of mining projects. MDB has a current license of operation from SUPRAM.

In 2014, MDB completed all of the necessary environmental studies for formal renewal of its operational license for an additional 4 years. SUPRAM has not yet finished the review of MDB's renewal application, and has not requested any further studies.. As part of the renewal process, MDB obtained an archaeological report (which indicated no archaeological findings), and installed a new septic tank, and plant and property placards.

Surface disturbance from open pit mining at MDB is in full compliance with its mining plan. Furthermore, MDB regularly recuperates areas that have been exploited. The current environmental regulations state that after all mining has ceased at MDB (however long that may take), there would still be five years of available time for any necessary recuperation to be performed. The separation process for diamonds and gold at MDB does not use any chemical products. Tests are conducted regularly and there are no records of groundwater contamination.

Exploration

As of April 10, 2015, Brazil Minerals has started preliminary exploration work in areas owned by RST. It expects the cost of such exploration to be less than $25,000 in 2015. The goal of this focused exploration work headed by an experienced alluvial diamond and gold geologist is to map out where future mining pits will be developed.

Employees and Independent Contractors

As of April 10, 2015, the number of employees and independent contractors working for our Brazilian subsidiaries was as follows: MDB had 13 full-time employees and 3 independent contractors, all of them based in Brazil; BMIXP had 3 independent contractors, all of them based in Brazil. In the U.S., BMIX had 1 full-time employee and 1 independent contractor. Therefore, on a consolidated basis, we had 14 full-time employees and 7 independent contractors in total. We also periodically retain consultants to provide services deemed necessary to the operation of our business. We consider our employee relations to be very good.

Form & Year of Organization & History to Date

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada under the name of Flux Technologies, Corp. ("Flux") on December 15, 2011. From inception until December 2012, Flux was focused in the software business, which generated minimal revenues and was discontinued in December 2012, when the current management team and business focus began. Details of the transactions occurring in December 2012 which lead to the new team and focus can be found in Note 1 of Item 8 of this Annual Report.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Some, but not all, of our operating risk factors and the risks of any investment in our stock are listed below.

Risks Related to Our Operations

We have a limited operating history.

Our current business model and management team has been in place only since December 2012. Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business or prospective operations. As an early stage company, we are subject to all of the risks inherent in the initial organization, financing, expenditures, complications, and delays inherent in a new business. Investors should evaluate an investment in us in light of the uncertainties encountered by developing companies in a competitive environment. Our business is dependent upon the implementation of our business plan. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or that we will ultimately be able to attain profitability.

Our ability to execute our business plan depends on the continuation of a favorable mining environment in Brazil.

Mining operations in Brazil are heavily regulated. Any significant change in mining legislation or other changes in Brazil's current mining environment may slow down or alter our business prospects.

- 7 -

We do not have any reserves compliant with SEC Industry Guide 7.

Vaaldiam, a company which formally owned the mining concession which MDB now owns, performed geological studies in such mining concession leading to the publication of an NI 43-101 technical report in 2007, with an update in 2008, as required by the rules of the Canadian securities administrator. These reports differ from the standards generally permitted in reports filed with the SEC. Investors should be aware that we have no "reserves" as defined by SEC Industry Guide 7 and much or all of our potential target mineral resources may never be confirmed or converted into SEC Industry Guide 7 compliant "reserves." The reports contain estimates based on our inferred resources. However, in accordance with both Canadian statutes and NI 43-101, estimates of inferred mineral resources cannot form the basis of a feasibility study.

We may be unable to find sources of funding if and when needed, resulting in the failure of our business.

Even though we have recently completed several transactions providing financing to us, we will require additional sources of funding to execute our business plan. We will need additional equity or debt financing beyond our existing cash to pursue our strategy, including the acquisition of additional investments in mining companies or to enter into strategic relationships with third parties to further study and/or develop mineral properties. The additional financing that we need may not be available and, if available, may not be available on terms that are acceptable to us. Our failure to obtain financing on a timely basis, or on economically favorable terms, could prevent us from pursuing our acquisition strategy or from responding to changing business or economic conditions and could cause us to experience difficulty in withstanding adverse operating results.

If we do obtain alternative source of capital, the terms and conditions of acquiring such capital may result in dilution and the resultant lessening of value of the shares of our common stock held by such stockholders.

If we are not successful in raising sufficient capital, we will have to modify our business plans and reduce operations. In this event, you could lose a substantial part or all of your investment.

Our quarterly and annual operating and financial results and our revenue are likely to fluctuate significantly in future periods.

Our quarterly and annual operating and financial results are difficult to predict and may fluctuate significantly from period to period. Our revenues, net income, and results of operations may fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors that are outside our control including, but not limited to, weather phenomena which directly affects the operations of alluvial mining properties, the general global economic condition which affects demand for diamonds, and others.

We do not intend to pay regular future dividends on our common stock and thus stockholders must look to appreciation of our common stock to realize a gain on their investments.

We have never paid a dividend and we do not have any plans to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. Our future dividend policy is within the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon various factors, including future earnings, if any, operations, capital requirements, our general financial condition, and other factors. Accordingly, stockholders must look solely to appreciation of our common stock to realize a gain on their investment. This appreciation may not occur.

We depend upon Marc Fogassa, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman.

Our success is largely dependent upon the personal efforts of Marc Fogassa. Currently he is our only management team member that is fluent and fully conversant in both Portuguese, the language of Brazil, and English. The loss of the services of Mr. Fogassa would have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects. We maintain key-man life insurance on the life of Mr. Fogassa.

Risks Related to Our Capital Stock

Our Series A Preferred Stock has the effect of concentrating voting control over us in Marc Fogassa, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

One share of our Series A Preferred Stock is issued, outstanding and held by Marc Fogassa, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of our Series A Convertible Preferred provides that for so long as Series A Preferred Stock is issued and outstanding, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall vote together as a single class with the holders of our Common Stock, with the holders of Series A Preferred Stock being entitled to 51% of the total votes on all matters regardless of the actual number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding, and the holders of Common Stock being entitled to their proportional share of the remaining 49% of the total votes based on their respective voting power.

Our stock price may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock has been and is likely to continue to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:

(1)

our ability to grow and/or maintain revenue;

(2)

our ability to achieve profitability;

(3)

our ability to acquire additional mineral properties;

(4)

our ability to raise capital when needed;

(5)

our sales of our common stock;

(6)

our ability to execute our business plan;

(7)

legislative, regulatory, and competitive developments; and

(8)

economic and other external factors.

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Because our common stock trades on the over-the-counter (OTC) market, you may not be able to buy and sell our common stock at optimum prices and you may face liquidity issues.

The trading of our stock on the OTC imposes, among others, the following risks:

·	Availability of quotes and order information

·	Liquidity risks

·	Dealer's spreads

The significant number of convertible debt securities outstanding may adversely affect the market price for our common stock.

To the extent that outstanding options and warrants are exercised and convertible debt securities are converted into our common stock, existing stockholder percentage ownership will be diluted and any sales in the public market of the common stock underlying such options may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock.

We may seek to raise additional funds, finance acquisitions or develop strategic relationships by issuing capital stock that would dilute your ownership.

We may largely finance our operations by issuing equity securities, which would materially reduce the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders. Furthermore, any newly issued securities could have rights, preferences, and privileges senior to those of our existing common stock. Moreover, any issuances by us of equity securities may be at or below the prevailing market price of our stock and in any event may have a dilutive impact on ownership interest of existing common stockholders, which could cause the market price of stock to decline. We may also raise additional funds through the incurrence of debt or the issuance or sale of other securities or instruments senior to our common shares. The holders of any debt securities or instruments we may issue could have rights superior to the rights of our common stockholders.

Our common stock is currently defined as "penny stock" and the rules imposed on the sale of the shares may affect your ability to resell any shares you may purchase, if at all.

Our common stock is defined as a "penny stock" under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and rules of the SEC. The Exchange Act and such penny stock rules generally impose additional sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than certain accredited investors who are, generally, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 jointly with spouse, or in transactions not recommended by the broker-dealer. For transactions covered by the penny stock rules, a broker-dealer must make a suitability determination for each purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement prior to the sale. In addition, the broker-dealer must make certain mandated disclosures in penny stock transactions, including the actual sale or purchase price and actual bid and offer quotations, the compensation to be received by the broker-dealer and certain associated persons, and deliver certain disclosures required by the SEC. Consequently, the penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to make a market in or trade our common stock and may also affect a stockholder's ability to resell any of our shares in the public markets.

MDB owns a large alluvial diamond and gold processing and recovery plant, one mining concession (discussed below) and an additional mineral right (discussed below), each of which pertains to property located on the left margin of the Jequitinhonha River in the State of Minas Gerais in Brazil. The Jequitinhonha River valley is a well-known area for diamond and gold production; it has hosted alluvial production on all scales since the 18th century.

MDB's plant, mining concession, and mineral right are all approximately one and half hour drive from Montes Claros, Brazil, a city of approximately 500,000 people. The first hour of the drive is on asphalt roads followed by a half-hour on dirt roads. Montes Claros has the infrastructure needed by MDB and also benefits from having an airport with regular carrier service to large Brazilian cities, including São Paulo and Belo Horizonte.

Montes Claros is located 400 kilometers north of Belo Horizonte, the capital of the State of Minas Gerais. Belo Horizonte is the third largest city in Brazil, with a population over 2,500,000 people and two airports, including one with international flights. We have our main office in Brazil in Belo Horizonte. From Belo Horizonte to Montes Claros, it takes one hour by regular carrier flight or five hours by car on asphalt roads.

MDB has title to both a mining concession and a mineral right, further described below. MDB does not own the land or surface rights atop these claims. In Brazil, the mineral right and the land (surface right) on top of it are commonly held by different owners. Brazilian law protects the rights of the owner of a mineral right to explore such claim, even when a surface owner is opposed to it.

MDB's Mining Concession

MDB's mining concession ("Concessão de Lavra") number 265 was awarded to MDB by DNPM effective on August 25, 2006 with respect to DNPM process number 806.569/1977. This claim award was published in Brazil's Official Federal Gazette.

"Concessão de Lavra" is the highest level of mining claim achievable in Brazil. MDB's Concessão de Lavra" permits MDB to mine and sell its production of diamonds and gold. MDB's mining concession covers an area of 170.89 hectares, or approximately 422 acres.

There are no liens or other encumbrances on MDB's mining concession. The mining concession is a federal claim in Brazil, as DNPM is a Brazilian federal entity. This mining concession has no termination date; it is held in perpetuity by MDB and for as long as MDB is continually mining in this concession area, this claim will be in good standing. The claim can also be in good standing even if there is no continued mining, if MDB were to file with DNPM for a hiatus from mining; such requests are normally granted for periods of up to three years.

- 10 -

"Concessão de Lavra" requires no fees to be paid to maintain such claim. Therefore, MDB has no payments to maintain MDB's mining concession.

Brazilian law guarantees the owner of the land on top of a mining concession the payment of a royalty of at least 0.1% of all revenues from the concession. However, most Brazilian mining companies negotiate with the landowner and pay a higher royalty rate as an incentive for greater cooperation. MDB has a contract that pays the landowner a 6% royalty rate on any sales.

MDB pays royalties to Brazil's "Receita Federal" if and when it sells diamonds and gold. The royalty rates paid are fixed by federal decree and are 0.1% on diamond sales and 1% on gold sales.

MDB's Other Mineral Right

MDB's other mineral right is an "Alvará de Pesquisa" with respect to DNPM process number 832.052/20006 initially awarded by DNMP on February 18, 2009, and renewed on November 13, 2013 for another two years. It covers an area of 397.42 hectares, or approximately 982 acres.

MDB intends to perform the necessary research to submit an application to upgrade this claim from "Alvará de Pesquisa" to "Concessão de Lavra", and therefore obtain another mining concession for an open pit operation. MDB expects that the exploration research work needed to submit the necessary request to DNPM will involve drilling for diamonds in a defined sub-area of the mining claim. MDB expects that this work can be completed well ahead of the deadline of December 13, 2015. MDB projects that the total cost in performing the necessary exploratory research work and preparing all of the documents for submission to DNPM will be less than $100,000. MDB owns the drilling equipment and has workers with experience in using it, and therefore field labor and material costs will be reasonably contained. For this project, MDB has two qualified professionals, a licensed geologist and a licensed mining engineer with over 20 years of field experience in projects along the Jequitinhonha River valley.

If by December 13, 2015, MDB has not submitted the necessary research work to DNPM, and has not been granted a valid extension, it may lose this mining claim but it will not be subject to fines or penalties for not completing the research timely.

"Alvará de Pesquisa" requires payment of annual fees to DNPM. Currently the fees are R$3.06 (approximately $1.39) per hectare. Therefore, MDB pays approximately $550 per year to DNPM.

Processing and Recovery Plant

MDB's diamond and gold processing plant was built in 2006-2007 by a Canadian company called Vaaldiam Resources, Ltd. ("Vaaldiam"), whose stock at that time traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange Venture Board. To the best of our knowledge, the diamond and gold processing plant at MDB is the largest such type of alluvial recovery plant in Latin America. The Company believes that the plant is in very good condition and MDB performs periodic maintenance and repairs on the plant to keep the plant in good condition.

Mineralization

Vaaldiam performed detailed geological studies in MDB's mining concession leading to the publication of an NI 43-101 technical report in 2007, and an updated NI 43-101 technical report in 2008, as required by the rules of the Canadian securities administrator. The technical report from 2008 shows mineralized materials amounting to 1,639,200 cubic meters with the following concentrations for diamonds and gold: 0.16 carats of diamonds per cubic meter and 182 milligrams of gold per cubic meter.

Furthermore, MDB has submitted its "Plano de Aproveitamento Econômico", a bankable Feasibility Study, to DNPM in accordance with the mining regulations of Brazil.

BMIX does not claim that the NI 43-101 technical report and/or MDB's bankable Feasibility Study are compliant with the SEC-sanctioned Industry Guide 7. Under the SEC's Industry Guide 7, no assertion can be made about reserves; moreover, Industry Guide 7 does not recognize the term "resources."

Source of Water and Power

The water used in MDB's processing and recovery plant for diamonds and gold, and other installations, comes from lagoons that receive water from the Jequitinhonha River. There is no shortage of water and water is essentially free to MDB.

- 11 -

The power used in MDB's processing and recovery plant and other installations, is provided by diesel generators. Normally, MDB purchases diesel on a weekly to bi-weekly schedule from two local competing distributors, both of which have storage tanks outside of MDB's plant. There has been no shortage of fuel available for purchase. The Company believes that the existence of two suppliers ensures that competitive pricing and other terms will continue to be available to MDB.

Over the next one to two years, MDB's intention is to work towards obtaining an industrial-strength electric line extension from the national electric grid, a pathway of approximately 27 kilometers. This would allow MDB to minimize, if not eliminate, any dependence on fossil fuels to operate its plant. To this extent, MDB has had meetings with CEMIG, the State of Minas Gerais electric utility company. Furthermore, MDB has obtained a detailed workplan by which the line extension could be built by a CEMIG authorized contractor in approximately four months and for under $800,000. CEMIG has indicated willingness to contribute 46% of such cost; other portions of this cost might be borne by farmers along the pathway which would be benefitting from electric energy for irrigation equipment use. These conversations are ongoing and at this time MDB has not finalized any commitments. Since energy costs are the largest component of expenses at MDB, and given that electric energy in Brazil is substantially less expensive than energy derived from fossil fuels on an equivalent basis, MDB believes that its cost of building the line extension would be recouped within two years or less.

Equipment at MDB

MDB has a large processing and recovery plant for alluvial diamonds and gold, considered by specialists to be the largest of such type in Latin America. The plant has a well-equipped spare parts and supply room. For mining, MDB has use of the following mechanized equipment which is owned by us: an excavator, a loader, a bulldozer, three trucks, a portable industrial-strength generator and pumps.

Set forth below is a map of the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil showing the location of MDB's plant.

2)	RST Recursos Minerais Ltda. ("RST")

We acquired from two Brazilian individuals, unrelated to us, a total of 25% of the equity of RST for total of 250,000 Brazilian real (approximately $110,000 at the then prevailing exchange rate, or $94,125 as of 12/31/2014) on June 4, 2014. Of this amount, 60% has been paid in cash over monthly installments and 40% with our restricted common stock.

We have signed an acquisition agreement with another Brazilian individual, also unrelated to us, for an additional 25% of the equity of RST for $400,000 Brazilian real (approximately $154,256 at the then prevailing exchange rate, or $150,600 as of 12/31/2014) on December 10, 2014. This amount is payable in monthly installments over time.

RST has ownership of 10 mining concessions and 12 other mineral rights, all for diamonds and gold, and all located next to or close by MDB's mining concession and mineral right areas, in the Jequitinhonha River valley in the northern part of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil.

RST has a storied history as holder of highly attractive areas for diamonds and gold. Most of its current mining concessions and mineral rights have never had land-based exploration performed properly. Many of the RST areas were owned before by Mineração Tejucana S.A., a famous Brazilian mining company that lasted for decades and mined inside the Jequitinhonha River by dredge.

The quality of the RST areas is evidenced in a technical report published on August 11, 2008 by Richard H.T. Garnett, BSc. (Min. Eng.), PhD (Econ.Geol.), M.B.A., C.Eng. and entitled "Technical Report On The RST Diamond Exploration Property And Duas Barras Diamond Mine, Minas Gerais State, Brazil: Presenting Details Of Diamond Resources Compliant With Canadian National Instrument 43-101". In this report, on page 33 as follows, the details of the transaction by which Vaaldiam,a Canadian listed company at the time) sough to acquire ownership of RST:

"Vaaldiam has agreed in principle to acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of RST. Subject to the satisfactory completion of a technical and financial due diligence study, and the execution of a Share Purchase Agreement, consideration of US$10,500,000 is payable by Vaaldiam to the vendors of the RST shares in three stages as follows:

(a)

US.$ 500,000 is payable in cash on the signing of a Share Purchase Agreement on 30 June 2008.

(b)

US.$ 1,500,000 is payable in common shares of Vaaldiam. For this purpose the value of Vaaldiam shares is deemed to be equal to a 10 % premium to the volume weighted average trading price of such shares for the 20 trading days preceding June 30, 2008. Such shares are to be issued on the signing of the Share Purchase Agreement on 30 June, 2008.

(c)

US$ 8,500,000 payable in cash on August 15, 2008."

We understand that Vaaldiam paid US$2 million to the sellers, and subsequently was unable to pay the remainder. RST was never explored by it or other owners since then and its mining areas have remained essentially untouched.

RST mining concessions and minerals rights are located on the banks of the Jequitinhonha River, a well-known alluvial diamond and gold area for the last two centuries, near MDB's areas and plant. RST has no operational plant or workers at this time, and any eventual mining in an RST area could possibly be processed at MDB's plant

We believe that its shareholders will benefit from this transaction as it permits us participation in an additional 10 mining concessions, whereas before we had only the one mining concession from MDB. Mining concessions are the highest level of mineral rights in Brazil. They permit the owner to mine and commercialize specified minerals in perpetuity, as long as continuous observance of the mining code is followed. The cost of obtaining a mining concession from a greenfield stage can reach hundreds of thousands of dollars and take in excess of five years

3)	Borba Project

The mineral claim for the Borba Project is "Autorização de Pesquisa" (research permit) with respect to DNPM process number 880.239/2009 initially awarded by DNMP on October 14, 2009, and renewed on December 4, 2012 for another three years. It covers an area of 9,999.11 hectares, or approximately 24,708 acres. The title to this mineral claim is held by us.

- 13 -

BMIX is evaluating the potential of the Borba Project. One possibility is for us to perform the necessary research to submit an application to upgrade this claim from research permit to mining concession by the submission of a research report in accordance with DNPM standards before December 4, 2015. Another possibility is a transaction by which a partner develops or co-develops this project. No decision on this has been made yet.

If by December 4, 2015, we, or a partner on our behalf, have not submitted the necessary research work to DNPM, and has not been granted a valid extension, we may lose this mining claim, but it will not be subject to fines or penalties for not completing the research on a timely basis.

In 2013, we performed a preliminary geological surface assessment of this area and collected samples for geochemical analysis. These samples were analyzed at the SGS-Geosol laboratory in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Further analytical work continues to date with a senior geologist in Brazil.

Set forth below is a map from DNPM delineating the Borba Project mineral rights area.

Offices

Brazil Minerals leases an administrative office in Pasadena, California. [The Company's Brazilian headquarters is in Belo Horizonte, capital of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The Company has additional office space at the administrative building at the mine.

Sales of Unregistered Securities

On October 22, 2014, we received proceeds of $25,000 from an investment by Black Mountain Equities, Inc., an accredited investor, in exchange for an unsecured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $27,500. The note bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The note must be converted by the holder (unless repaid by us) by December 31, 2015. We retain the option, but not the obligation, to repay the note in cash. The conversion price is the lesser of (a) $0.07 or (b) 60% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of our common stock during the twenty trading days immediately prior the applicable date on which the holder of the note elects to convert all or part of the note. The note is not secured by any collateral. The note was issued in accordance with an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act by virtue of being offered without employing any means of general solicitation and issued to only one accredited investor which represented to us that it had such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment and was acquiring the shares for investment and could bear the economic risk of the investment.

On November 3, 2014, we received proceeds of $47,500 from an investment by JSJ Investments Inc., an accredited investor, in exchange for an unsecured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $50,000.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data.

The information to be reported under this Item is not required of smaller reporting companies.

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

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Report.

This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements for Brazil Minerals, Inc. reflect current expectations, as of the date of this Annual Report, and involve certain risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward- looking statements as a result of various factors. Factors that could cause future results to materially differ from the recent results or those projected in forward-looking statements include: unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits but also from finding mineral deposits that, though present, are insufficient in quantity and quality to return a profit from production; market fluctuations; government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals, and environmental protection; competition; the loss of services of key personnel; unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, sabotage, government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of infrastructure as well as general economic conditions

Overview

Brazil Minerals, Inc. ("Brazil Minerals", the "Company", "we", "us", or "our"), together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in the business of acquiring controlling positions or significant positions, with oversight roles in companies in Brazil in the minerals area or in industries related to minerals. We consolidate the results of our controlled subsidiaries in this Annual Report.

In 2013, our initial year of operations under the current management team, we produced rough diamonds and gold for sale. In 2014, we added polished diamonds. In 2015, we added sand and within 30 days will add industrialized sand products, such as mortar. We expect industrialized sand products to have higher margins than rough diamonds or gold.

The current primary objective of BMIX is to become a cash flow positive company within the next 12 months. Currently, it is not an objective of the Company to achieve the highest revenues possible. The Company is currently focused on those revenues that can be obtained with the lowest possible cost and greatest certainty.

The year 2014 was marked by a need to raise enough cash and quickly to buy the 45% of Mineração Duas Barras Ltda ("MDB") that belonged to a private individual. MDB owns a mining concession for diamonds, gold, and sand, and a large recovery plant for diamonds and gold, among other assets. We competed against offers from a group based in India, in a very time-sensitive manner, and therefore had to resort to a rapid combination of convertible debt and equity sales, as well as sales of diamonds for forward delivery to not lose the opportunity. If we had lost, a 45% owner in Brazil would be in a position to block any strategies that we could envision for MDB. With our acquisition of the 45% piece, however, we now own 100% of MDB. We believe that on a discounted cash flow basis, this acquisition was highly attractive. In 2014, we also acquired 50% of RST Recursos Minerais Ltda. ("RST"), a company with 10 mining concessions and 12 mineral rights for diamond and gold, and also located in the Jequitinhonha River valley in Brazil. Some of the many RST areas are located in close proximity to our MDB processing plant for diamonds and gold. The last time that RST was transacted to a public company, in 2008, its acquisition price was $10.5 million. No mining in its areas has occurred since then. Our acquisition cost for 50% of RST has been less than $250,000 after months of negotiations with the previous private owners.

From 2013 when we had access to only 1 mining concession and 2 mineral rights, we now have 11 mining concessions and 17 mineral rights.

While our consolidated financial results are in part tied to the price of diamonds and gold, both commodities that are traded globally, the biggest factor by far to date in generating our revenues and gross profits is MDB's ability to effectively mine diamonds and gold. Alluvial mines, such as MDB's, are not homogeneous: some mining fronts have very rich concentrations of diamondiferous and auriferous gravel whereas others do not. Additionally, some areas have easy access, whereas others may be underwater, and thus require water removal prior to excavation. Our ability to choose the mining fronts to pursue and to provide the necessary equipment, fuel, and labor are a significant factor in our results. The second biggest factor in affecting our results is MDB's ability to mine diamonds and gold is highly seasonal. The rainy season in the northern area of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, lasts from December through April. We expect that during these months MDB's revenues will be substantially lower than during other periods.

The last quarter of 2014 was not a good operational quarter because the location in which we embarked proved more challenging and expensive to mine than predicted. Such area was an open pit greater than the size of a football field and covered with water; the water had depths in excess of 15 meters. This area was chosen because we had excellent geological reports and markings available, and thus knowledge of substantial presence of mineralized materials. However, we approached the rainy season unable to reach the depth for gravel needed. This area was particularly expensive to mine because we had to maintain up to four diesel-powered generators working virtually around the clock so that the water would not rise. It is our current focus for 2015 mining pits that are much easier to access and mine.

- 17 -

In 2015, Brazil Minerals anticipates receiving increasing cash flows from the sale of high-margin industrialized sand products as well as from the sale of unprocessed sand. These cash flows are predictable, dissociated from diamond and gold mining, and independent of investment in large diesel costs. Overall, our strategy will be to prioritize safer cash flows while our convertible notes get converted to stock.

In 2015, Brazil Minerals anticipates clearance of most, if not all, of its variable-rate convertible debt outstanding through stock conversions or debt repurchases. This should greatly diminish continuous selling pressure on the our stock as most convertible debt holders appear to promptly sell the shares issued to such lenders upon conversion of the debt.

Starting in 2015 but going to 2016, Brazil Minerals intends to continue to lower its costs of diamond and gold mining and production by a variety of strategies, including better power management and excavation of smaller pits. An important goal is to bring electricity to its large diamond and gold processing plant, which would make the biggest cut in the cost of diesel usage, our largest operational cost. Additionally, as soon as logistically feasible, Brazil Minerals plan to cease selling rough diamonds and only sell polished diamonds. The Company's rough diamonds sell for approximately US$130/carat. The Company's polished diamonds, certified and graded by the Gemological Institute of America, have a Rapaport value of US$3,250/carat. In order to undertake this strategy of only selling polished diamonds, the Company will rely on daily cash flows from sand and mortar, so that it can wait for batches of diamonds to be polished in either China or India prior to selling them in the global markets at best prices.

Over time, our intended operational strategy to explore more remote mining areas that we control can be described as hub-and-spokes, in that the MDB plant will be the hub and, over time, much smaller, portable and relatively inexpensive satellite pre-processing plants will be placed in farther mining concessions. This will allow us to transport to the MDB plant only pre-processed gravel for final recovery of diamonds and gold. At that point, the plant could function around the clock and therefore increase its throughput significantly.

As part of implementing this strategy, now that we own 100% of MDB, we have accelerated conversations and exchange of information and proposals with Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais ("CEMIG"), the state-controlled electric utility. Recently, CEMIG has identified availability of electric energy for sale going forward and we are now discussing cost and timeline for a line extension connecting the MDB plant to the national grid. Access to electric energy replacing the current diesel generators use will cut costs at MDB by at least 60%.

Results of Operations

Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2014 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2013

In 2014, we had revenues of $492,129 as compared to revenues of $791,780 in 2013, a decline of 37.8%. The decrease was primarily due to lower than expected revenues in the last quarter of 2014, as the area chosen for mining was operationally challenging and unable to be properly mined prior to the start of the rainy season.

Our consolidated cost of goods sold in 2014 was $446,606, consisting almost entirely of production expenses, and representing approximately 90.7% of the Company's total revenues. Our consolidated cost of goods sold in 2013 was $448,830, also consisting almost entirely of production expenses, and representing 56.4% of the Company's total revenues. This result is explained by the much more challenging type of underwater mining exploration that occurred in most of 2014 as compared to dry open pit mining in 2013.

- 18 -

Our gross profit in 2014 was $45,523, or approximately 9.3% of total revenues. By comparison, our gross profit in 2013 was $342,950, or approximately 43.3% of total revenues.

We had an aggregate of $1,901,561 in operating expense in 2014, as compared to an aggregate of $2,755,906 in operating expenses in 2013, a decline of 31.0%. This decrease was mostly due to lower compensation, stock compensation, and exploration costs, all of which declined much more than the increases seen in general and administrative expenses, and professional and consulting fees.

In 2014, we had other expenses of $1,544,888, primarily related to the convertible debt taken by the Company, as compared to $22,168 in other expenses in 2013.

Brazil Minerals' net result in 2014 was ($3,436,643) in 2014, as compared to a net result of ($2,218,873) in 2013. On a per share basis, the 2014 net result was ($0.04) versus ($0.03) in 2013.

Net cash used in operating activities was $246,489 in 2014, as compared to $543,753 in 2013.

Net cash used in investing activities was $1,356,032 in 2014, as compared to $229,617 in 2013. The increase seen in 2014 was primarily due to the acquisition of the 45% of MDB.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,656,205 in 2014, as compared to $202,692 in 2013. The increase seen in 2014 was due to the sale of convertible notes and equity, primarily done for the acquisition of the 45% of MDB.

Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2013 Compared to Period from March 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012

The Company was incorporated on December 15, 2011. It commenced operations on March 1, 2012. Until December 2012, the Company's operations were limited to developing a business plan, completing sales of common stock, discussing offers by the Company of 3D animation services with potential customers, and the signing and performance of a service agreement with one company.

The Company changed its business model and management in December 2012, and simultaneously discontinued its 3D animation services business. From March 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012 ("FY2012") we had zero revenues as compared to revenues of $791,780 in the period from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013 ("FY2013"). Essentially all of our revenues in FY2013 were derived from the consolidation of the revenues from MDB, a company in which we own a 55% ownership stake. All of the revenues of MDB in FY2013 were from sale of rough diamonds and gold mined at MDB.

Our consolidated cost of goods sold in FY2013, consisting almost entirely of production expenses, was $448,830 or approximately 56.7% of the Company's total revenues. The Company's gross profit in FY2013 was $342,950, or approximately 43.3% of total revenues. By comparison, the Company had no revenues, costs of goods sold or gross profit in FY2012.

We had an aggregate of $2,778,944 in operating expenses in FY2013, as compared to $152,655 in total operating expenses in FY2012. Exploration and production costs totaling $834,962 and stock based compensation totaling $1,210,391 comprised the majority of operating expenses in FY2013. No exploration and production costs or stock based compensation expense was incurred in FY2012.

General and administrative expenses increased from $3,885 in FY2012 to $326,908 in FY2013; compensation and related costs increased from $54,112 in FY2012 to $269,168 in FY2013; and professional fees increased from $94,658 in FY2012 to $114,044 in FY2013, in each case primarily as a result of the change in the Company's business All of these changes were as a result of the growth of our business.

Primarily as a result of the $2,626,289 increase in total operating expenses, our net loss increased by $2,260,661, from $174,463 in FY2012 to $2,435,124 in FY2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2014, we had current assets of $538,765 compared to current liabilities of $3,062,857 for a current ratio of 0.18 to 1. By comparison, on December 31, 2013, we had current assets of $340,332 compared to current liabilities of $238,602 for a current ratio of 1.43 to 1. The decrease in our current ratio in 2014 was attributable to a decrease in cash and cash equivalents which were used to fund operations and an increase in liabilities due to issuance of convertible notes and forward sales of polished diamonds.

- 19 -

In 2014, our principal sources of liquidity were our revenues from the sale of polished diamonds, rough diamonds, and gold, issuances of convertible debt and equity, and forward sales of polished diamonds.

During the first quarter of 2015, we received an aggregate of $265,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of $200,000 in fixed-rate convertible debt with a floor on the conversion rate and $65,000 in variable-rate convertible debt.

We believe that financial resources and funds generated from industrialized sand sales as well as unprocessed sand sales will make a substantial impact in operational cash flows commencing in the second quarter of 2015. We anticipate that these cash flows will be adequate to cover a large portion of anticipated expenditures for general and administrative expense costs. We anticipate that all of the existing convertible debt in the Company will be converted to common stock throughout 2015. The Company may rely on financing from the issuance of equity and/or debt if it believes that it needs to close any gaps that are not covered by its revenues or pre-revenues.

The Company has no plans for any significant cash acquisition in 2015 or the foreseeable future while it is not cash flow positive.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company currently has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, loans to a related party, accrued expenses, and an amount due to a director. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in our financial statements. If our estimate of the fair value is incorrect at December 31, 2013, it could negatively affect our financial position and liquidity and could result in our having understated our net loss.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the financial statements. We have reviewed all recent accounting pronouncements issued to the date of the issuance of these financial statements, and we do not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on us.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the design, operation, and effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of December 31, 2014. On the basis of that evaluation, management concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed, and are effective, to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company's internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to management and to the Company's Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on management's evaluation under the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework, management concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2014.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Since the Company is a non-accelerated filer, management's report is not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. As a result, this Annual Report contains only management's report on internal controls.

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2014 that materially affected, or would be reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

(d) Limitations of the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

The effectiveness of the Company's system of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting is subject to certain limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing and evaluating the control system, the assumptions used in identifying the likelihood of future events, and the inability to eliminate fraud and misconduct completely. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will detect all errors or fraud. However, the Company's control systems have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Item 9B. Other Information.

None.

On January 1, 2013, the Company and Brazil Mining entered into an administrative services agreement under which Brazil Mining provided, at cost to us, personnel and facilities to carry out our business activities in Brazil. We paid Brazil Mining $228,463 pursuant to the agreement. This agreement was terminated in 2013 as we implemented our infrastructure in Brazil. During the period in which the agreement was in effect Brazil Mining owned a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock, three of its directors were also directors of the Company and Marc Fogassa, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer was also Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Brazil Mining.

- 27 -

On December 19, 2012 the Company entered into and consummated a Contribution Agreement with Brazil Mining (the "Contribution Agreement") pursuant to which Brazil Mining contributed to the Company by way of an Assignment of Mineral Rights, certain mineral exploration rights on an approximately 10,000 hectare property located in the municipality of Borba, State of Amazonas, Brazil. Brazil Mining also entered into an Option Agreement with the Company pursuant to which Brazil Mining granted to the Company an option to purchase for $800,000 a 20% share of the monthly diamond production that Brazil Mining would actually receive in respect of Brazil Mining's then anticipated acquisition of a 55% equity interest in a Brazilian entity (the "Option Agreement"). Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Company issued to Brazil Mining an aggregate of 1,073,511 shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, constituting 51% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company giving effect to all of the transactions consummated on December 19, 2012. In connection with the Option Agreement, on December 19, 2012 the Company advanced $800,000 to Brazil Mining. The loan was payable on demand without interest. No principal payments on such loan were made until January 2, 2013, when the Company exercised the option granted to the Company pursuant to the Option Agreement and acquired 20% of the diamond production due BMI from BMI's 55% interest in MDB. The $800,000 exercise price for the option was paid by the Company by cancelling the $800,000 loan receivable from Brazil Mining.

On March 23, 2013, our Board of Directors and the Board of Directors of BMI, each having obtained all necessary authority, celebrated an agreement pursuant to which our Brazilian subsidiary acquired Brazil Mining's 55% interest in MDB for $660,000 in consideration.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company loaned $40,650 to Brazil Mining. No principal or interest payments were made on the loan during 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company made additional advances of $83,041 to Brazil Mining. The total due from Brazil Mining as of December 31, 2014 is $123,691 The loan is due on demand and bears interest at the rate of 6% per annum on any amounts outstanding after June 30, 2014.

Director Independence

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Engagement of accounting services by us is not made pursuant to any pre-approval policies and procedures. Rather, we believe that our accounting firm is independent because all of its engagements by us are approved by our Board of Directors prior to any such engagement.

Our Board of Directors will meet periodically to review and approve the scope of the services to be provided to us by its independent registered public accounting firm, as well as to review and discuss any issues that may arise during an engagement. The Board is responsible for the prior approval of every engagement of our independent registered public accounting firm to perform audit and permissible non-audit services for us, such as quarterly financial reviews, tax matters, and consultation on new accounting and disclosure standards.

Before the auditors are engaged to provide those services, our Chief Financial Officer and Controller will make a recommendation to the Board of Directors regarding each of the services to be performed, including the fees to be charged for such services. At the request of the Board of Directors, the independent registered public accounting firm and/or management shall periodically report to the Board of Directors regarding the extent of services being provided by the independent registered public accounting firm, and the fees for the services performed to date.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Brazil Minerals, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Brazil Minerals, Inc. ("the Company") as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related statement of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Brazil Minerals, Inc., as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company continues to experience negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BRAZIL MINERALS, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND 2013

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Description of Business

Brazil Minerals, Inc. ("BMIX" or the "Company") was incorporated as Flux Technologies, Corp. under the laws of the State of Nevada, U.S. on December 15, 2011. The Company, through subsidiaries, mines and sells diamonds and gold, and owns or has options on other mineral assets in Brazil.

On December 18, 2012, the Company entered into and consummated an acquisition agreement with Brazil Mining, Inc. ("BMI") whereby BMI agreed to transfer to the Company certain mining and exploration rights, in exchange for 35,783,342 shares of the Company. At the same time, the previous sole director surrendered for voluntary cancellation, 99,999,000 shares of common stock of the Company such that, upon the transaction and a simultaneous private placement by the Company of its common stock, BMI owned 51% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. The Company changed its name to Brazil Minerals, Inc. on December 24, 2012. See Note 3 for additional information.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its 99.99% subsidiary, BMIX Participações Ltda. ("BMIX Subsidiary"), which at December 31, 2013 owned 55% of Mineração Duas Barras Ltda. ("MDB"). During the year ended December 31, 2014, BMIX Subsidiary acquired the remaining 45% of MDB. Thus, as December 31, 2014, MDB is a wholly owned subsidiary. See Note 3 for additional information. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") of the United States of America and are presented in U.S. dollars. In 2013, the Company elected to change its year end date from February 28 to December 31.

Use of 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 contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820 – Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure. Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The guidance also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of our Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our Company's assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

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's derivative liabilities were considered a level 2 liability. See Note 4 for a discussion regarding the determination of the fair market value. The Company does not have any level 3 assets or liabilities.

BRAZIL MINERALS, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND 2013

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

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.

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, taxes recoverable, prepaid expenses, inventory, deposits and other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, deferred revenue and convertible notes payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to either length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these consolidated financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent that the funds are not being held for investment purposes. The Company's bank accounts are deposited in FDIC insured institutions. Funds held in U.S. banks are insured up to $250,000 and funds held in Brazilian banks are insured up to 250,000 Brazilian Reais (approximately $94,125 as of December 31, 2014).

Inventory

Inventory consists of rough diamonds, gold, ore stockpile, parts, supplies and related production costs and is stated at lower of cost or market. The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realizable value and all losses, are recognized in the period the write-down of loss occurs. At December 31, 2014, all inventory consisted of ore stockpile.

Investment under the Equity Method

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase 25% of the equity of RST Recursos Minerais Ltda ("RST") for 250,000 Brazilian Reais (approximately $112,875 USD based on the date of the agreement) in value equivalent of common shares of the Company. As of December 31, 2014, the Company issued 1,428,572 shares of common stock with a value of $56,742 and made cash payments of $107,858. The investment is accounted for using the equity method. Subsequent to December 31, 2014, the Company purchased an additional 25% of RST, see Note 10 for additional information. The remaining 50% interest in RST is owned by BMI, a related party. RST's assets are 10 mining concessions (the highest level of mineral right in Brazil) for diamond and gold as well as 12 other mineral rights. Income and expenses related to RST were insignificant during the year ended December 31, 2014.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statements of operations as other gain or loss, net.

The diamond and gold processing plant and other machinery are depreciated over an estimated useful life of 10 years; and computer and other office equipment over an estimated useful life of three (3) years. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, all property and equipment related to the processing plant and other production machinery except for approximately $800 in computer equipment.

DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND 2013

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Mineral Properties

Costs of exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs, including licenses and lease payments, are capitalized. Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's rights. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.

Impairment losses are recorded on mineral properties used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not carry or retain any unproven mineral properties.

Intangible Assets

For intangible assets purchased in a business combination, the estimated fair values of the assets received are used to establish their recorded values. For intangible assets acquired in a non-monetary exchange, the estimated fair values of the assets transferred (or the estimated fair values of the assets received, if more clearly evident) are used to establish their recorded values, unless the values of neither the assets received nor the assets transferred are determinable within reasonable limits, in which case the assets received are measured based on the carrying values of the assets transferred. Valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach are used to measure fair value.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

For long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization, the Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when products are fully delivered or services have been provided and collection is reasonably assured. Typically, the Company records revenues upon delivery of the products to the customer. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had deposits of $543,630 and $0, respectively, related to proceeds received for future diamond sales which have been recorded as customer deposits. A portion of these deposits are recorded as long term as the agreements provide for the delivery of diamonds in excess of one year from the balance sheet date. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recognized revenue of $33,700 related to the delivery of diamonds pursuant to the agreements. See Note 7, for additional information related to these agreements.

Costs of Goods Sold

Included within costs of goods sold are the costs of cutting and polishing rough diamonds, and costs of production such as diesel fuel, labor, and transportation.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to measure compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation at fair value at the grant date and recognize the expense over the employee's requisite service period. Under ASC Topic 718, volatility is based on the historical volatility of our stock or the expected volatility of the stock of similar companies. The expected life assumption is primarily based on historical exercise patterns and employee post-vesting termination behavior. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which was developed for use in estimating the fair value of options. Option-pricing models require the input of highly complex and subjective variables including the expected life of options granted and the expected volatility of our stock price over a period equal to or greater than the expected life of the options. Because changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimated value of our employee stock options, it is management's opinion that the Black-Scholes option-pricing model may not provide an accurate measure of the fair value of our employee stock options. Although the fair value of employee stock options is determined in accordance with ASC Topic 718 using an option-pricing model, that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction.

The Company has adopted a stock plan to attract, retain and motivate its directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors. The Company's stock plan provides for the issuance of up to 15,000,000 common shares for employees, consultants, directors, and advisors. See Note 5 for a discussion regarding common stock, options and warrants issued.

Foreign Currency

The Company's foreign subsidiaries use a local currency as the functional currency. Resulting translation gains or losses are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Transaction gains or losses related to balances denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. 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. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is "more likely than not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more likely than not" test, no tax benefit is recorded.

Basic Income (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260 Earnings per Share which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. As of December 31, 2014, the Company's potentially dilutive securities relate to common stock issuable in connection with convertible notes payable, options and warrants. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Other Comprehensive Income

Other comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources, other than net income and including foreign currency translation adjustments.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We have reviewed all recent accounting pronouncements issued to the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements, and we do not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on the Company.

On September 30, 2013, the Company issued and sold to two accredited investors for $100,000 four units of securities, each unit consisting of a $25,000 convertible promissory note and warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company's common stock until December 31, 2019. The notes bear interest of 10% per annum and are due on the earlier of the close of $100,000 financing or May 31, 2014. The note payable can be converted into common shares of the Company at $0.125 per share. The conversion price of the warrants is $0.15 per share and expire on December 31, 2019. During the period ended March 31, 2014, $25,000 of the note was repaid. The Company recorded a debt discount of $53,701 related to the issuance of the convertible note. As of December 31, 2014, the entire debt discount has been amortized to interest expense. In May 2014, the conversion feature of the note was amended to the lower of $0.11 or 60% of the lowest closing price in the 20 days before the conversion date and the term of the note was extended to September 30, 2014. For accounting purposes, the modifications to the original loan terms were treated as an extinguishment of debt, which resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $97,898 which was recorded on the statement of operations as an increase to additional paid in capital. In addition, on May 5, 2014 a derivative liability of $53,702 was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: our stock price on the date of grant ($.08), expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 77.67%, risk free interest rate of 0.12% and an expected term of .40 years. As of December 31, 2014, the derivative liability was $0 because as noted in the next paragraph the convertible note payable was fully paid or converted.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, $75,000 of the debt was converted into 2,279,066 shares of common stock of the Company.

The total debt discount was comprised of the debt discount related to the warrants, the convertible note, and stock and cash given in exchange for issuing the convertible notes. The fair value of the debt discount related to the warrants granted was $12,007 and was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: our stock price on date of grant ($0.11), expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 76.15%, risk-free interest rate of 1.43%, and an expected term of 6.25 years. The fair value of the debt discount related to the convertible note was $20,694 and was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: our stock price on the date of grant ($0.11), expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 87.67%, risk-free interest rate of 0.07%, and an expected term of .67 years. The fair value of the stock and cash given in consideration for issuing the convertible notes was $11,000 and $10,000, respectively. The convertible notes called for the payment of one-half of the stock and cash upon issuing the convertible notes and the remainder upon the repayment of the notes. As of December 31, 2014, $5,500 in stock and $5,000 in cash had been satisfied and the remainder due is reflected in accounts payable.
