(All amounts are expressed in United States dollars unless otherwise
indicated.)
1. Silver is treated as a gold equivalent at a ratio of 50:1 except at
Mercedes where silver is treated as a gold equivalent at a ratio of 140:1
/T/
On a gold equivalent basis, mineral reserves are 19.3 million ounces for the year ending December 31, 2012, an
increase of over 4% from 2011. This is comprised of 17.7 million ounces of gold mineral reserves and 89.2
million ounces of silver mineral reserves. On a gold equivalent basis the average grade of mineral reserves
increased 3% to 0.96 grams per tonne (g/t).
A priority in 2012 was to increase mineral reserves at existing operations. At the Company's existing
operations mineral reserves increased 6% to 14.2 million gold equivalent ounces (GEO) with an average gold
equivalent grade of 0.82g/t.
Copper mineral reserves were 2.7 billion pounds of copper at an average grade of 0.31% copper including
Alumbrera. Copper mineral reserves at Chapada increased by 7%.
For 2012, measured and indicated mineral resources increased 15% to 15.6 million GEO with an average gold
equivalent grade of 0.89 g/t, which is a 14% increase from 2011. This is comprised of 14.1 million ounces of
gold mineral resources, an increase of 7%, and 78.8 million ounces of silver, an increase of 237%.
Total inferred mineral resources increased 10% to 11.4 million GEO while the grade increased significantly to
1.51 g/t, a 119% increase from 2011. This is comprised of 10.1 million ounces of gold mineral resources, an
increase of 10%, and 67.7 million ounces of silver, an increase of 7%.
Assumption of metal prices used in the estimate of mineral reserves and mineral resources remained unchanged
from 2011: gold price of $950 per ounce, silver price of $20 per ounce and copper price of $2.50 per pound
(except where noted).
The increases are net of 2012 depletion due to production.

Detailed mineral reserve and mineral resource tables follow at the end of this press release and are available
online at www.yamana.com/operations/reservesandresources.
The most notable changes are detailed below:
El Penon, Chile
/T/
=- Gold equivalent mineral reserves of 13.0 million tonnes at 8.97 g/t
containing 3.7 million gold equivalent ounces
=- Gold equivalent mineral resources of 2.0 million tonnes at 10.45 g/t
containing 673,000 gold equivalent ounces
=- Inferred gold equivalent mineral resources of 5.1 million tonnes at
10.79 g/t containing 1.8 million gold equivalent ounces
/T/
The Company has increased gold equivalent mineral reserves for three consecutive years at El Penon, building on
a long track record of replacing and increasing mineral reserves at the operation. In 2012, the focus was on
converting, upgrading and increasing mineral resources. The increase in gold equivalent mineral reserves
replaced reserves depleted from production and increased by an additional 6% over 2011 levels. Mineral reserve
tonnage increased by 14%, which now includes a portion of the Pampa Augusta Victoria ("PAV") vein system which
is 'open pittable' as it is near surface and is easily accessible. The decrease in mineral reserve grade is due
to the inclusion of lower grade materials from Dorada Sur, Providncia and other zones that are lower grade.
These results continue to indicate the potential of an increased mine life and a higher sustainable production
level of approximately 440,000 GEO per year.
The 2013 exploration program at El Penon will focus on the extension of PAV and areas within the North Block as
well as new discoveries; Dorada Sur and Dorada Oeste, Fortuna Este, and Bonanza West. This effort is expected
to result in continued increases in mineral resources in 2013 and a target to develop the new discoveries into
minable mineral reserves in the near term.
Chapada, Brazil
/T/
=- Gold equivalent mineral reserves of 431.2 million tonnes at 0.27 g/t
containing 3.7 million gold equivalent ounces
=- Gold equivalent mineral resources of 300.6 million tonnes at 0.25 g/t
containing 2.4 million gold equivalent ounces
=- Inferred gold equivalent mineral resources of 118.6 million tonnes at
0.23 g/t containing 859,000 gold equivalent ounces
/T/
Total gold mineral reserves increased by 11% with an increase of 7% in grade from 2011 levels. These increases
are in addition to the replaced reserves depleted by production and are largely attributed to the inclusion of
portions of the Corpo Sul mineral resources upgrading to mineral reserves. Gold mineral reserves have increased
cumulatively by 70% since 2009. Total copper mineral reserves increased by 7% with a 2% increase in grade over
2011 in addition to replacing those copper reserves depleted by production. Increases in measured and indicated
gold mineral resources replaced what was upgraded to mineral reserves and increased marginally from 2011
levels. This was expected given the exploration focus in 2012 was to upgrade mineral resources to mineral
reserves and further exploration of Corpo Sul. Also expected was the decline in inferred gold mineral resources
given that the emphasis at Chapada has been on improving the quality of the entire mineral resource base. With
discovery of a new area of mineralization that is predominantly copper the focus in 2013 will be to increase
copper mineral resources to supplement new gold discoveries.
A pre-feasibility study was completed for Corpo Sul in late 2012 based on mineral reserves of 573,000 ounces of
gold and 401 million pounds of copper in 55 million tonnes of ore. This represents an increase of 182% from
2011 in gold mineral reserves. Additional work further increased the mineral reserves at Corpo Sul, which have
been included in Chapada's mineral reserves estimate. The feasibility study will include these additional
ounces. It is expected that further work at Corpo Sul will significantly contribute to 2013 growth of mineral
reserves.
Jacobina, Brazil
/T/
=- Gold mineral reserves of 25.0 million tonnes at 3.02 g/t containing 2.4
million gold ounces
=- Gold mineral resources of 25.0 million tonnes at 2.59 g/t containing 2.1
million gold ounces
=- Inferred gold mineral resources of 12.6 million tonnes at 3.01 g/t
containing 1.2 million gold ounces
/T/
Gold mineral reserves increased by 21% over 2011, in addition to replacing reserves depleted by production
during the year. Since the acquisition of the mine, the Company has increased gold mineral reserves
cumulatively more than 98% representing the sixth consecutive increase. Mineral reserve grade increased by 10%,
a significant increase which is attributed to the higher grade Canavieiras and Morro do Vento mineral resources
being upgraded to mineral reserves. The mineral reserve grade at Canavieras is 16% higher than existing reserve
grade; the Company is looking at accelerating development into the high grade areas. Since 2009, mineral
reserve grade has increased by 41% from 2.14 g/t to 3.02 g/t. The focus in 2012 was on quality and grade,
specifically of the mineral reserves, as a result, measured and indicated mineral resources declined. This was
more than offset by the significant improvements to the number of mineral reserve ounces and grade. These
results warrant the Company's continuing evaluation of higher production levels at Jacobina related to the
higher grade mineral reserves.
Gualcamayo, Argentina
/T/
=- Gold mineral reserves of 49.6 million tonnes at 1.29 g/t containing 2.1
million gold ounces
=- Gold mineral resources of 33.2 million tonnes at 1.10 g/t containing 1.2
million gold ounces
=- Inferred gold mineral resources of 10.4 million tonnes at 1.66 g/t
containing 552,000 gold ounces
/T/
The focus in 2012 at Gualcamayo was on the definition and expansion of the Rodado breccia, a new zone
discovered in 2011 southwest of QDD Lower West (QDDLW). As a result, measured and indicated mineral resources
increased by 5% with a 6% increase in grade and the Rodado breccia mineralization was extended by 500 metres
along strike. A significant amount of mineral resources at Gualcamayo are within the Rodado breccia and QDDLW,
and given the current size of the sulphide portion of the mineral resources in these zones and the expectation
of further mineral resource increases in these areas, the Company has initiated an evaluation of milling
options which is expected to be competed in first half of 2013. There is approximately 1.6 million ounces
cumulatively from all zones and all resource categories, some of which is also heap leachable, that will be
considered in the evaluation of the milling option. Mineral reserves declined which can be attributed to
depletion from production of the current ore bodies.
Exploration in 2013 will continue to focus on the south west of the QDDLW deposit where sulfide bearing
carbonate breccias have been outlined. These breccias are an extension of QDDLW mineralization and occur as sub-
parallel bodies or feeders to QDDLW. This mineralization remains open to the south west and down dip.
Minera Florida, Chile
/T/
=- Gold equivalent mineral reserves of 10.8 million tonnes at 2.82 g/t
containing 974,000 gold equivalent ounces
=- Gold equivalent mineral resources of 2.7 million tonnes at 6.64 g/t
containing 570,000 gold equivalent ounces
=- Inferred gold equivalent mineral resources of 3.7 million tonnes at 6.31
g/t containing 758,000 gold equivalent ounces
/T/
Gold equivalent mineral reserves, and measured and indicated mineral resources remained essentially the same as
2011. Mineral reserves depleted through production were replaced, which was one of the goals of the 2012
program. After significant increases in 2011, in part attributed to the upgrade from mineral resources to
reserves of the historic tailings, the processing of which started in the third quarter of 2012, the focus of
last year was on replacing reserves depleted and identifying new resources. The program was successful and
resulted in the discovery of Aguas Frias East and a 10% increase in inferred mineral resources. In 2013,
further drilling at Aguas Frias East is expected to further delineate and expand this new zone.
Mercedes, Mexico
/T/
=- Gold equivalent mineral reserves of 6.6 million tonnes at 4.83 g/t
containing 1.0 million gold equivalent ounces
=- Gold equivalent mineral resources of 2.7 million tonnes at 3.62 g/t
containing 309,000 gold equivalent ounces
=- Inferred gold equivalent mineral resources of 3.4 million tonnes at 3.65
g/t containing 403,000 gold equivalent ounces
/T/
In 2012, the exploration focus was on the replacement of mineral reserves and increasing mineral resources
through further delineation of Diluvio, Lupita, Marianas (Barrancas Norte) and Rey de Oro. While grades in some
of these zones are below historic ore grades the ore bodies are considerably wider. Gold equivalent mineral
reserves remained essentially the same as in 2011. The replacement of mineral reserves depleted through
production was mainly attributable to additions from the Lupita and Marianas zones. This resulted in a 25%
increase in tonnage and a 21% decline in grade, the majority of these lower grade ounces came from Lupita.
Measured and indicated mineral resources increased significantly, by 53% with a 8% increase in grade, through
contributions from Rey de Oro and Diluvio. Inferred mineral resources decreased by 28% as most of the inferred
resources at Lupita, Marianas and part of Diluvio were converted into indicated mineral resources. In the
fourth quarter, high grade mineralization was intersected at depth in Rey de Oro. This mineralization is on
strike with and may zone the Klondike deposit located one kilometre to the north-northwest. The 2013 program
will focus on the expansion of this zone to determine continuity between the zones in addition to replacing and
increasing mineral reserves and mineral resources.
Fazenda Brasileiro, Brazil
/T/
=- Gold mineral reserves of 4.1 million tonnes at 2.30 g/t containing
306,000 gold ounces
=- Gold mineral resources of 2.6 million tonnes at 2.00 g/t containing
165,000 gold ounces
=- Inferred gold mineral resources of 6.1 million tonnes at 3.10 g/t
containing 611,000 gold ounces
/T/
Measured and indicated resources at Fazenda Brasiliero increased by 8% and inferred mineral resources increased
by 16%. Mineral reserves declined by 15%. These changes in the mineral resource base can partly be attributed
to depletion and have also resulted from an economic evaluation which determined a portion of mineral reserves
were more appropriately classified within the measured and indicated category pending a definitive mine plan on
how these ounces will be mined in later years. The Company acquired the mine in 2003 with a 2.5 year mine life
remaining based on known mineral reserves; based on current mineral reserves mine life is slightly less than
four years after having been mined by the Company for nine years.
C1 Santa Luz, Brazil
/T/
=- Gold mineral reserves of 30.1 million tonnes at 1.51 g/t containing 1.5
million gold ounces
=- Gold mineral resources of 13.6 million tonnes at 1.55 g/t containing
678,000 gold ounces
=- Inferred gold mineral resources of 6.0 million tonnes at 2.54 g/t
containing 490,000 gold ounces
/T/
Mineral reserves remained essentially the same as in 2011. Measured and indicated mineral resources increased
by 17% due to the addition of new ounces at near surface satellite deposits which also contributed to the 3%
increase in inferred mineral resources. In 2013, the focus will be on expanding the highly prospective
underground mineralization identified in 2012.
Pilar, Brazil
/T/
=- Gold mineral reserves of 11.1 million tonnes at 4.04 g/t containing 1.4
million gold ounces
=- Gold mineral resources of 1.8 million tonnes at 4.62 g/t containing
267,000 gold ounces
=- Inferred gold mineral resources of 11.2 million tonnes at 3.83 g/t
containing 1.4 million gold ounces
/T/
Mineral reserves, and measured and indicated mineral resources were unchanged from 2011, as the Company focused
exploration on a new area known as Maria Lazarus. This resulted in a 29% increase in inferred mineral
resources. These mineral resources are expected to be upgraded during 2013. The company continues to focus on
developing Pilar for production with planned start-up expected mid-2013.
Cerro Moro, Argentina
/T/
=- Gold equivalent mineral resources of 4.2 million tonnes at 14.62 g/t
containing 1.95 million gold equivalent ounces
=- Inferred gold equivalent mineral resources of 3.6 million tonnes at 4.24
g/t containing 490,000 gold equivalent ounces
/T/
In 2012, the Company spent $5 million to drill over 100 holes with the goal of upgrading the inferred mineral
resources and grow the resource base. These results have been incorporated in the Company's mineral resource
update for Cerro Moro.
The 2013 exploration program at Cerro Moro will focus on drill testing eight priority target areas located on
the northern La Negrita block, an entirely new zone, and drill testing existing geologic targets, geochemical
anomalies and vein extensions within nine priority target areas in the southern Escondida block, which contains
the majority of current known mineral resources.
Other Properties
Arco Sul, Brazil
/T/
=- Inferred gold mineral resources of 3.5 million tonnes at 4.64 g/t
containing 522,000 gold ounces
/T/
Arco Sul is a new discovery made in late 2010 and is 100% owned by Yamana. It is located in western Goias
State, 200 kilometers from Goiania, 370 kilometers from Brasilia and 295 kilometers from the Company's Pilar
mine. Gold mineralization is hosted in a stock work system in a contact zone of subvolcanic intrusives and the
Neoproterozoic volcano-sedimentary basement. Yamana's closed and reclaimed mine, Fazenda Nova, represents the
small, near surface part of the Arco Sul mineralized system. Diamond drilling started in late September 2010
and to date 72 diamond drill holes totaling 29,979 meters have been completed. Mineralization remains open in
all directions.
Lahvra Velha, Brazil
/T/
=- Inferred gold mineral resources of 3.9 million tonnes at 4.29 g/t
containing 543,000 gold ounces
/T/
Lavra Velha is an early stage exploration target, discovered in 2010, located in Central Bahia State, 550
kilometers from Salvador, 350 kilometers from Jacobina and 480 kilometers from Fazenda Brasileiro Mine.
The project lies within a 400 kilometre northwestern trending sequence of Paleoproterozoic acid volcanics which
overlie the Archean Sao Francisco Craton consisting of granitic and mafic intrusions. Four sub-horizontal
mineralized levels have been defined at Lavra Velha to date, covering an area of approximately 900 metres by
350 metres. The mineralization is characterized by Iron Oxide / Sulfide rich breccias and remains open in all
directions. Drilling started in 2010 and to date, 70 diamond drill holes totaling 18,231 meters have been
completed.
2013 Exploration Program
The Company expects to spend approximately $110 - $115 million on exploration in continuation of the successful
2012 program. The 2013 exploration program will continue to focus on increasing mineral reserves and mineral
resources with its near-mine and regional exploration programs, as well as continuing to explore identified
greenfield targets and generate new targets.

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO UNITED STATES INVESTORS CONCERNING ESTIMATES OF MEASURED, INDICATED AND INFERRED MINERAL
RESOURCES
This news release uses the terms "mineral resource", "measured mineral resource", "indicated mineral resource"
and "inferred mineral resource" are defined in and required to be disclosed by NI 43-101. However, these terms
are not defined terms under Industry Guide 7 and are not permitted to be used in reports and registration
statements of United States companies filed with the Commission. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any
part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into mineral reserves. "Inferred
mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their
economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will
ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not
form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. Investors are cautioned not to
assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists or is economically or legally mineable.
Disclosure of "contained ounces" in a mineral resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations. In
contrast, the Commission only permits U.S. companies to report mineralization that does not constitute "mineral
reserves" by Commission standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures.
Accordingly, information contained in this news release may not be comparable to similar information made
public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal
securities laws and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
