                (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)
           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

   The  consolidated balance sheet as of November  30,  1995  and
August  31,  1995, the consolidated statements of operations  for
the  three and three months ended November 30, 1995 and  November
30,  1994 and the consolidated statements of cash flows  for  the
three months ended November 30, 1995 and November 30, 1994,  have
been  prepared by the Company, without an audit.  In the  opinion
of   management,  all  adjustments,  consisting  only  of  normal
recurring  adjustments necessary to present fairly the  financial
position,  results of operations and cash flows at  November  30,
1995 and for all periods presented have been made.

   Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in  financial  statements prepared in accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting principles have been condensed  or  omitted.
It  is suggested that these consolidated financial statements  be
read  in  conjunction  with the financial  statements  and  notes
thereto included in the Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form  10-
KSB.  The results of operations for interim periods presented are
not  necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full
year.

NOTE 2 - NOTE RECEIVABLE

   In  1995,  the  Company  extended  short-term  credit  to  the
Rangeview Metropolitan District.  The loan permits borrowings  up
to $150,000, is unsecured, bears interest based on the prevailing
prime rate plus 2% and, matures on December 31, 1995.

NOTE 3 - CONTINGENCY

   In October 1994, the Company joined in a lawsuit initiated  by
others   including  the  Rangeview  Metropolitan  District   (the
"District"), brought in the District Court of the City and County
of  Denver,  Colorado, against the Colorado State Board  of  Land
Commissioners  (the  "Board")  seeking  a  declaratory   judgment
affirming that the lease, as amended, (the "Lease"),  between the
Board and the District is valid and enforceable. Under the Lease,
the   Board  leased  the  development  rights  to  ground   water
underlying certain lands controlled by the Board, to the  current
lessee, the District.  The Company has an interest in such  water
by  reason  of  agreements entered into between the District  and
other parties.

  On March 1, 1995, a counterclaim was filed by the Board against
the  District,  the Company and other plaintiffs,  in  which  the
Board  asserts that the Lease is void because the original lessee
breached  his  fiduciary duty to the Board  and  that  successive
lessees  have breached the Lease.  The Board also claims  damages
of  unspecified  amounts  against the plaintiffs,  including  the
Company,  because of alleged wrongs done in connection  with  the
Lease and subsequent transactions.

   Based on ongoing settlement discussions,  management  believes
that the Rangeview litigation will be settled on terms acceptable
to the Company  during fiscal  year  1996.  However, if the Board 
were to  change  its current  position on settling the matter and 
were to prosecute and prevail on its  claims  that  the  Lease is   
void or unenforceable, that would have an effect on the Company's
contractual  rights  under its Water Commercialization  Agreement
(the "WCA") related to the water covered by the Lease  and  would
have a materially adverse effect on the Company.

             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION


Results of Operations

   General and administrative expenses for the three months ended
November 30, 1995 were approximately $14,000 higher than for  the
period ended November 30, 1994, primarily because of and increase
in  professional fees expense. Interest expense decreased for the
three  months  ended  November 30, 1995 by  approximately  $5,700
compared to the period ended November 30, 1994 primarily  because
of  a  lower average outstanding balance of notes payable in  the
first  quarter  of  fiscal 1996 compared to the  same  period  in
fiscal  1995.   Net loss for the three months ended November  30,
1995 increased approximately $20,900 compared to the three months
ended  November 30, 1994  primarily  because  the company did not
expercise its option  to  purchase  certain  water  rights  which
expired in November 1995.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

  At November 30, 1995, current assets exceed current liabilities
by  approximately  $654,675 and, the Company had  cash  and  cash
equivalents of $698,735.

   During  1993, a judgment in the amount of $214,000 was awarded
to  a broker pursuant to a complaint filed against the Company in
October of 1991.  The Company reached a settlement agreement with
the  broker  which involved the payment of $60,000  and  $154,000
plus  8% interest due on or before October 1, 1995.  The note  is
currently in default.

   The  Company is aggressively pursuing the sale and development
of  its  water rights.  The Company cannot provide any assurances
that  it  will be able to sell its water rights.  In the event  a
sale  of  the Company's water rights is not forthcoming  and  the
Company  is  not  able  to generate revenues  from  the  sale  or
development  of  its technology, the Company may sell  additional
portions  of  the  Company's  profit  interest  pursuant  to  the
WCA, incur short or long-term debt  obligations or  seek to  sell
additional  shares  of  Common  Stock,  Preferred  Stock or stock
purchase warrants as deemed necessary by the Company  to generate
operating capital.

  Development of any of the water rights that the Company has, or
is   seeking   to  acquire,  will  require  substantial   capital
investment by the Company.    Any such additional capital for the
development  of  the water rights is anticipated to  be  financed
through  the sale of water taps and water delivery charges  to  a
city   or  municipality.  A water tap charge refers to  a  charge
imposed  by  a municipality to permit a water user  to  access  a
water  delivery system (i.e. a single-family home's tap into  the
municipal water system), and a water delivery charge refers to  a
water  user's monthly water bill generally based on a  per  1,000
gallons of water consumed.
