NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 11-K, 20-F,
10-Q, N-SAR or the transition report portion thereof could not be filed
within the prescribed time period (Attach extra sheets if needed.)
Utah Resources International, Inc. (the "Company") is unable to file its
Form 10-KSB for the year end December 31, 1996, on a timely basis because to
do so would cause unreasonable effort and delay. Therefore, the Company
seeks to extend its filing date pursuant to this Form 12b-25.
The Company underwent two major changes in 1996: (i) on April 25, 1996,
the Company and Midwest Railroad Construction and Maintenance Corporation
("Midwest") entered into a Splitoff Agreement (the "Splitoff Agreement"),
whereby the Company rescinded a prior agreement whereby the Company had
exchanged 590,000 or 33% of its total shares in return for all of the shares
of Midwest; and (ii) Inter-Mountain Capital Corporation ("IMCC") acquired a
majority interest in the Company in July 3, 1996. For a more detailed
description of the above transactions see Form 10-KSB for year end December
31, 1995, filed with the SEC on January 8, 1997. The registrant anticipates
completing the subject report within 15 days of its prescribed due date.
