                ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

During the three months ended November 30, 1996, the Company's operations
resulted in a negative working capital, a $6,300 decrease from the August 31,
1996 amount. This decrease was due to the debt incurred to prepay expenses
related to a stock offering. See note 4 to these financial statements for more
detail.

In December 1996, the Company completed a public offering of units, each
consisting of one share of common stock and one common stock purchase warrant.
The Company sold 1,000,000 units at $1.50 per unit and received net proceeds of
$1,300,000. The net proceeds will be used for the Company's oil and gas
activities.

Management believes that the Company's liquidity is sufficient to meet future
cash needs for operations. Management does not anticipate any future material
sales of oil and gas properties solely to raise working capital.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

Current Quarter Compared to Previous Quarter
- --------------------------------------------
Revenues from oil and gas sales increased by approximately $20,700 compared to
the previous quarter.  Oil and gas revenues for the quarter ended November 30,
1996, were $167,500 and for the quarter ended August 31, 1996, $146,000. This
increase was due to the sale of more gas during the fall quarter and revenue
generated from recently acquired producing properties.

Production costs, including taxes, decreased by approximately $18,100 during the
current quarter when compared to the previous quarter. The decrease can be
attributed to more costs being incurred in the prior quarter for summer
activities on the Company's properties.

Exploration costs decreased by $71,600 when compared to the previous quarter.
This decrease is attributed to the Company having incurred $22,600 in dry hole
costs along with the abandonment of $24,900 more of nonproducing properties in
the previous quarter than in the current quarter.

General and administrative costs increased by $23,900 when compared to the
previous quarter. This increase is due to an increase in shareholder relation
costs and professional fees paid.

Interest income remained fairly stable over the two quarters.

Operations in the current quarter resulted in a $21,700 net income compared to a
net loss of $1,600 for the previous quarter. The aforementioned increase in
sales revenues combined with the decrease in exploration costs lead to the
$23,300 change in net income (loss) between the quarters.

                ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Current Quarter Compared to Corresponding Quarter
- -------------------------------------------------

Oil and gas revenues increased by $102,100 compared to the same quarter in 1995
due mainly to higher prices and higher production. This is a 156% increase over
the prior year's sales revenue.

Production costs, including production taxes, increased $11,500 to coincide with
the increased revenue generated.

Exploration costs decreased by $22,000 when compared to the corresponding
quarter in 1995. This decrease is mainly attributed to the lower expiration of
nonproducing leases during the current quarter.

General and administrative expenses increased by $17,900 when compared to the
same quarter a year ago. The reasons for the increase were due to expenses
incurred to promote interest in a prospective developmental property, increased
professional fees and raises given to employees.

Depreciation and depletion expense increased by $13,400 when compared to the
corresponding quarter. This increase is due to the addition of a producing
property in the previous year along with higher production from some of the
Company's older producing properties.

The change in net income (loss) of $77,291 can be attributed to the
significantly higher sales of oil and gas in the current quarter.
