                          (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               SEPTEMBER 30, 1999


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATION

In the  following  discussion  we are  providing  an analysis  of our  financial
condition  and the Plan of Operation  during the next quarter and the balance of
the  fiscal  year.  This  discussion  should  be read in  conjunction  with  our
financial statements and the notes thereto.  Certain matters discussed below are
based on potential future circumstances and developments, which we anticipate or
expect, but which cannot be assured.  Such  forward-looking  statements include,
but are not limited to, our plans to conduct drilling operations,  trends in the
results of our operations,  anticipated rates of production, natural gas and oil
prices,  operating expenses and our anticipated capital requirements and capital
resources.  The actual results which we achieve in our  operations  could differ
materially from the matters discussed in the forward-looking statements.

We  generated  our  first  revenue  during  the  first  quarter  of 1999  from a
successful  exploratory  natural gas well in the Bali prospect in the Sacramento
Basin of central California. The well has generated $ 93,161 at an average price
of $ 1.94  per  MCF  during  the  nine  months  ended  September  30,  1999  and
approximately $ 37,900 at an approximate  average price of $ 2.14 per MCF during
the quarter ended September 30, 1999. We anticipate production and gas prices on
the well during the next three months to be  comparable  to the three months for
the quarter ended September 30, 1999. The producing well and our interest in the
surrounding unexplored acreage is being held for sale. Pending any sale of those
properties, we will continue to receive revenue from the producing well.

In late 1998 we participated in drilling a successful oil well in the Horsethief
Canyon  prospect,  in which  we hold a 20%  working  interest.  The well did not
produce  revenue  in the first  quarter of 1999.  During  the six  months  ended
September 30, 1999,  the well produced 3,644 barrels of oil which was sold at an
average  price of $ 18.00 per  barrel.  We realized $ 9,552 after taxes and fees
from our 16% profit  interest in the well during the six months ended  September
30, 1999. We anticipate the production and the oil prices on the well during the
next quarter to be comparable to this quarter which  produced 752 barrels of oil
at an  average  price of $ 21.20  per  barrel.  We  decided  to farm out as much
interest as was required to carry our remaining  interest to the casing point in
our Hoursethief  Canyon Prospect.  We have agreed to sell a 10% working interest
in the spacing unit for the next well for $ 25,000,  which should be  sufficient
to fund the remaining  7.8125%  working  interest we have in the subject well to
the casing point.  If we elect to complete the well, it will owe an additional $
16,100.  After payout,  we will have a 9.21875%  working interest until the well
recovers  300% of drilling and  completion  costs  afterwhich  our interest will
reduce to 8.59375%. We have agreed to be subject to the balance of the agreement
pertaining to the 10% interest  sold. We will receive 20% of the prospect fee of
$ 27,700 after the first option well on the next seven locations drilled.

Because we decided to  discontinue  further  exploration of our prospects in the
Sacramento Basin, we took a non-cash impairment charge totaling  approximately $
1.25 million at the end of 1998.  As a result of this charge,  the book value of
our oil and gas properties was reduced to the approximate  amount of the present
value of the oil and natural gas reserves on these  properties.  We depleted our
natural  gas  well in Bali $  83,557  and our  oil  well in  Horsethief  $ 5,539
totaling $ 89,096 during the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

We had general and administrative  expenses of $ 92,000 during the first nine of
1999,  compared to $ 188,778 in the prior year.  The  decrease was mainly due to
non-cash equity  compensation of 215,000 common shares to directors and officers
during  the  first  half of 1998 at an  estimated  value of $.50 per  share or $
107,500.  The value of the compensation was determined to be $.20 per share or $
43,000 subsequent to the June 30, 1998 quarterly  report.  There was no non-cash
equity  compensation  during  the first  nine  months of 1999.  We also had cash
expenditures  of  approximately  $ 60,000 for  geophysical  and lease  extension
costs, which were capitalized. We expect to incur around $ 40,000 of general and
administrative expenses during the last quarter of the year. Other capital costs
associated  with  participation  in  acquiring,  exploring  and  drilling of the
Horsethief Canyon and nearby prospects will be at least

$ 250,000 and could be as much as $ 700,000,  depending  on such  factors as the
success  of initial  drilling  efforts,  decisions  by the  Operator  to conduct
additional exploratory drilling and related factors.

At  September  30,  1999 we had  approximately  $ 7,900 in cash and $ 42,500  in
receivables.  At November 12, 1999 we had  approximately  $ 22,400 in cash and $
15,500 in receivables  compared to around $ 16,000 in cash and no receivables at
December 31, 1998. We anticipate that our revenue from the production of the one
producing  natural gas well on the Bali prospect will be  approximately $ 10,000
monthly during the remainder of 1999,  depending  upon the production  rates and
applicable  natural gas prices.  We believe the production  from the oil well on
the Horsethief prospect will approximate $ 1,000 monthly during the remainder of
1999, depending upon the production rates and applicable oil prices.

During the second  quarter,  we obtained a $ 100,000  line of credit,  which was
secured by the personal  guarantee of our  Chairman.  At September  30, 1999 and
November 12, 1999,  we had  outstanding  loan balances of $ 40,000 and $ 30,000,
respectively. In March our President loaned us $ 20,500, which was used to repay
amounts owed Fancher Resources,  LLC and other accounts payable. We will require
additional  capital  resources in order for us to complete the 1999 drilling and
exploration activities and to pay our ongoing operating expenses.

In May 1998 we  commenced a public  offering in which we offered up to a maximum
of 3,000,000 common shares at $ 1.00 per share. No shares were sold and expenses
incurred in connection  with the offering during 1998 were expensed at year-end.
We have decided to revise the offering with an  anticipated  offering date early
during  the  year  2000.  The  revised  terms  of the  offering  have  not  been
determined.  On October 31, 1999, 1,180,000 warrants to purchase up to 1,180,000
shares of common stock expired. No warrants were exercised.  Concurrent with the
public  offering,  we extended the  warrants to December  30,  1999.  If all the
warrants  are  exercised,  of which  there  is no  assurance,  we would  receive
approximately  $ 295,000 by December 30, 1999,  the date when the warrants  will
expire unless they are again extended.  If all the warrants should be exercised,
the  proceeds to the  Company  would  enable the Company to pay its  anticipated
operating  expenses  and  to  participate  in  the  drilling  of  at  least  two
exploratory  wells in 1999.  We can make no  assurances as to whether any of the
warrants will be exercised or whether we will be able to  successfully  complete
any portion of our anticipated offering.

Unless the minimum offering in the anticipated  offering is completed or we sell
our interests in the Sacramento Basin in California,  we do not believe that our
available  cash will be  sufficient  to pay all of our  anticipated  general and
administrative  expenses,  capital lease costs and anticipated drilling expenses
over the next 12 months. As a result we may be unable to participate in drilling
any  additional  exploratory  or  development  wells  on the  Horsethief  Canyon
prospect or other nearby prospects.  If we are able to raise additional  capital
we  will  use  the  proceeds  to  pay  our  ongoing  operating  expenses  and to
participate in additional  drilling.  To fund the anticipated  near term capital
shortfall, we may accept loans from management or other affiliates,  in addition
to the line of credit guaranteed by the Chairman.  Assuming  sufficient  capital
resources  become  available,  we will  continue to seek to acquire  interest in
other oil or natural gas properties.

We do not  have  any  employees  and  instead  we use  consultants  for  matters
pertaining  to drilling,  property  evaluations  and  administration.  We do not
presently contemplate hiring employees during the next 12 months.

Year 2000  Considerations.  We have considered the impact of Year 2000 issues on
our computer system and applications and developed a remediation  plan.  Because
we are a small company and use computer  systems and  applications  owned by our
consultants,  we do not  anticipate  that we will  incur any  material  costs in
remediating potential Year 2000 problems. We did not incur any expenses for such
purposes in 1998 or during 1999. The Company's consultants have confirmed to the
Company that Year 2000 issues on their  systems will be detected and  remediated
by the end of the year.  We are unable to assess  whether  Year 2000  issues may
affect  others  in the oil and gas  industry  with  whom we may  have  operating
agreements  or  other  arrangements,  such as oil and gas  purchasers,  pipeline
operators,  drilling  contractors,  governmental  agencies  or others.  Problems
experienced by such other entities could adversely affect our business.
