NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Condensed financial statements

The balance sheet of Tatonka Energy, Inc. (the "Company") as of
March 31, 1996, the statements of operation for the quarters 
ending March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the statements of cash flows 
for the periods then ended have been prepared by the Company, 
without audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments 
(which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to 
present fairly the financial position, results of operations and 
cash flows for all periods presented have been made.

The balance sheet at December 31, 1995 has been taken from the 
audited financial statements at that date, and condensed.  
Certain other 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 condensed financial 
statements be read in conjunction with the Company's audited 
financial statements and notes thereto included in its December 
31, 1995 annual report to shareholders.  The results of 
operations for the period ended March 31, 1996 are not 
necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full 
year.

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, only cash is used 
as the Company does not have any items meeting the definitions
 of cash equivalents contained in Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standards No. 95.

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

Three months ended March 31, 1996 versus
three months ended March 31, 1995

Results of Operations

Interest income decreased by $307 for the three month period 
ended March 31, 1996, as compared to the same period for 1995.  
This is due to a reduction in cash available for investment.

Depreciation decreased by $658 for the three month period ended 
March 31, 1996, as compared to the same period for 1995. General 
and administrative expenses decreased by $2,484 for the three 
month period ended March 31, 1996, as compared to the same 
period for 1995.  This decrease is mainly due to reduced 
professional services.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's working capital at March 31, 1996 was $97,786 
versus $104,805 at December 31, 1995, for a decrease in working 
capital of $7,019.  This is due to the payment of administrative 
fees such as audit and management fees.  

Management is of the opinion that the Company is dependent upon 
obtaining additional working capital to continue operations.  
The Company's immediate needs for working capital include 
development or purchase of oil and gas properties.  The Company 
is currently looking to acquire larger working interest in a 
small number of properties with increased upside potential.  In 
the future, the Company's efforts to obtain additional capital 
include continuing efforts to conduct a public or private 
offering of the Company's equity securities, and proposed 
acquisitions of additional oil and gas properties in exchange 
for common stock of the Company.  During 1995, management met 
with several investment bankers and broker-dealers in an effort 
to generate interest in conducting a public offering of the 
Company's securities.  However, as of March 31, 1996 such 
discussions had not resulted in an agreement for such offering.  
Nonetheless, the Company will continue to investigate 
opportunities which are presented through the contacts of 
management.

The Company does not have a formal plan for capital expenditures 
in 1996 and will continue to depend on internally generated 
funds as its major source of liquidity, as it has no unused line 
of credit or any formal arrangements with any lending 
institution to borrow any funds.
