This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (this "Statement") is being filed on behalf of Ross J. Beaty relating to the common shares, no par value (the "Common Shares"), of Augusta Resource Corporation, a corporation existing under the laws of Canada (the "Issuer"). This Statement amends and supplements the initial statement on Schedule 13D, filed on April 15, 2010 (the "Original Statement") by Mr. Beaty as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Original Statement, filed on October 28, 2010 (the "First Amendment") by Mr. Beaty.  The Original Statement and First Amendment are hereby amended and restated as follows.
 
Item 3.

Item 3 is amended and restated as follows:

Mr. Beaty used personal funds to acquire, through his wholly-owned company, Kestrel Holdings Ltd. (the "Holding Company"), an aggregate of $2,225,000 principal amount of unsecured convertible notes bearing interest at 7% per annum (the "Convertible Notes"), which, if converted would represent 852,272 Common Shares.

Item 4.  
Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is amended and restated as follows:

The Convertible Notes held by Mr. Beaty were acquired for investment purposes only. Mr. Beaty does not have any current intention of acquiring or disposing ownership of, or control or direction over, any additional Convertible Notes or Common Shares. Depending on market conditions and other relevant factors, Mr. Beaty may, in the future, increase or decrease his beneficial ownership of, or control or direction over, Convertible Notes or Common Shares through market transactions, private agreements or otherwise.
 
Item 5.

Item 5 is amended and restated as follows:

(a)           As of the date hereof, Mr. Beaty beneficially owns the aggregate number and percentage of outstanding Common Shares set forth below:
