     REPORT ON REVIEW BY INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

Board of Directors
Golden Triangle Industries, Inc.
Albuquerque, New Mexico

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Golden
Triangle Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 1997, and
the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for
the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of
interim financial information consists principally of applying
analytical review procedures to financial data and making inquiries of
persons responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a
whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to the accompanying financial statements for them
to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31,
1996, and the related consolidated statements of operations, retained
earnings and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented
herein); and in our report dated March 16, 1997, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those financial statements.  In our opinion,
the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated
balance sheet as of December 31, 1996 is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it
has been derived.

        SELECTED INFORMATION FOR CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               (Unaudited)
                              June 30, 1997


NOTE 1:  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with instructions to Form 10-01 of Regulation
S-X.  They do not include all information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements.  However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no
material change in the information included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.  In the opinion
of Management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  The
report of Robert Early & Company, P.C. commenting on their review
accompanies the condensed financial statements included in Item 1 of Part
1.  Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 1997, are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending December 31, 1997.


NOTE 2:  REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

During May 1997, the board of directors and shareholders approved a
reverse stock split in the ratio of one for 3.5 shares held.  This
reverse split was approved in an effort to improve the share price of
the outstanding shares in order to be able to move up in the markets 
for the stock of the Company.  The ultimate goal is to make the stock 
more tradeable.

The stock amounts and paid in capital at December 31, 1996 have been
restated in order to provide comparative information.  The weighted
average shares and the earnings per share have also been restated to
present the information on a consistent basis.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<PAGE>

NOTE 3: ACQUISITION OF PRODUCING ROYALTIES

During the first and second quarters of 1997, the Company acquired
additional interests in Australian producing concessions 299P and 267P. 
These interests were purchased at approximately 36 month payout based on
current production levels.  However, activity on these concessions
indicates increased development work by the operator.  As illustrated in
the financial statements, revenues from oil and gas which is primarily
from Australia increased significantly over the prior year.  Total costs
incurred were $41,428.


NOTE 4: OTHER RECEIVABLES

During the first quarter, the Company loaned $50,000 to Dewatering, Inc.,
a startup Company specializing in unique controlled fluid disposal.  This
loan carries a 5% interest rate and calls for Dewatering to issue stock
equal to 5% of its outstanding shares to the Company.  This note is
collateralized by personal guarantees from officers of Dewatering, Inc.

During the second quarter, the Company loaned $31,500 to Osage
Environmental, Inc. for the purchase of a tractor and trailer.  This note
is secured by the equipment.  The Company is to receive its loan back and
retain an ongoing percentage of the revenue from the equipment.


NOTE 5:  UTILIZATION OF TAX LOSS CARRY-FORWARDS

During 1996, the Company essentially used up all of its tax loss carry-
forwards in offsetting and reducing its income tax liabilities. 
Beginning in 1997, the Company does not have loss carry-forwards to
offset its income tax liability and will be forced to utilize a portion
of its cash flow to pay income taxes.


NOTE 6:  SALE OF PROPERTY AND ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY

During June 1997, the Company sold the Amando salt water disposal well
and all related fixtures and equipment to TransTexas Gas Corporation
(TransTexas) for cash of $410,913 and a promise to make certain
improvements to the Altair property described below.  This transaction
was the result of the exercise by TransTexas of an option which it held
under the original sale contract for the Company's purchase of this
facility in 1996.  Under that agreement, TransTexas had an option to
repurchase the facility at any time within five years.  The sale of this
facility results in the removal of assets with original costs of
$750,246.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<PAGE>

On June 30, 1997, the Company purchased 95% of a 2881.8 acre property
known as the Altair Ranch from Parker Brothers & Co. Inc. for $1,096,100
cash.  The purchase includes all existing materials located on the land
and approximately 90% of the mineral rights.  The Company intends to sell
off existing land materials and develop storage facilities for oil and gas
equipment as well as pursue the possibility of building salt water
disposal facilities, which is the main source of revenues for the
Company.  This property has several possible uses which the Company
intends to explore.  As mentioned above, TransTexas agreed to perform
certain work on this property in the way of improvements.  The estimated
value of these services is a minimum of $269,000 which was included in
the sale price of the Amando disposal.  

The purchase price was allocated to existing assets under the terms of
the contract.  A summary of the allocation follows: buildings and
depreciable real estate - $127,500; fencing and equipment - $246,000;
water retention facilities - $60,000; land - $462,743; inventory of raw
materials - $200,000.  The improvements TransTexas is to make includes
rebuilding office/storage facilities, drilling two disposal wells,
clearing land, provision of water holding tanks and pumps, and installing
new gates.

Item 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations.

ASSETS:

The Company's total assets have continued to increase, rising to
$6,988,729 at June 30, 1997.  This represents a 7% increase in total
assets in the past six months.  The increase is primarily attributable
to the major land acquisition of the Altair Ranch near Houston, Texas
for $1,096,100.  The ranch assets include the land, buildings,
fencing, equipment, water retention facilities, and raw materials. 
The balance sheet categories of land, buildings and other real estate,
and inventory (raw materials) increased because of this acquisition. 
However, the Company sold its Amando disposal facility which resulted
in a decrease in the production equipment category even after the
addition of some production equipment assets from the Altair purchase. 
The sale of the Amando was to TransTexas Gas Corporation for cash of
$410,913 and a promise to make certain improvements at the Altair
property including rebuilding storage facilities, drilling two
disposal wells, clearing land, providing tanks and pumps, and
installing new gates.  These services have a minimum estimated value
of $269,000 which was included in the sale price of the Amando and is
a component of accounts receivable-trade at June 30, 1997.  Of the
remainder of accounts receivable-trade, $49,077 is attributable to oil
and gas receivables and the balance is due to salt water disposal
operations.  It is not uncommon for receivables to be high when
providing services to energy companies.  

The Company's cash position was down to $70,928 on June 30, 1997,
compared to $298,521 at December 31, 1996, because of the cash outlay
for the purchase of the Altair Ranch which closed on June 30, 1997. 
Current assets remained about the same when comparing June 30, 1997 to
June 30, 1996, while net property and equipment increased because of
the ranch acquisition discussed above.  

The $100,904 cash-restricted item under other assets represents a cash
bond in place for Southwest Tire Processors, Inc. (SWTP).  This bond
is expected to be released back to the Company during the third
quarter of 1997.  Other investments totaling $417,930 consists of the
Company's 7% ownership in Signature Motorcars, Inc., a 12.5% interest
in SWTP, and a 20% participation in Oil Seeps, Inc.  The notes
receivable-long-term consists of $151,724 due from SWTP with the
balance due from the non-current portion of Apache Ranch land sales.

Current liabilities were reduced when comparing June 30, 1997 to June
30, 1996, but increased when comparing to December 31, 1996 because of
income taxes payable.  During 1996, the Company used up its tax loss
carry-forwards that had been offsetting and reducing income tax
liabilities and will have to begin paying income taxes in 1997.

The ratio of current assets to current liabilities represents the
Company's liquidity.  The liquidity ratio at June 30, 1997 was 3.24:1
compared with 5.35:1 at December 31, 1996 and 1.86:1 on June 30, 1996. 
It is important to note that the Company has no bank or other debt
against its assets.

Stockholders' equity continued to build for the Company to $6,481,940
on June 30, 1997.  This is up $322,336 over December 31, 1996 and
$525,928 over June 30, 1996.  

REVENUES:

Total operating revenues remained about the same comparing the first
quarter ($762,913) to the current quarter ($728,649), however, the
first six months revenues of 1997 were $1,491,562 which is up from
$1,367,454 for the same period of 1996.  This represents a 9% increase
in revenues.  Revenues for the second quarter of 1996 were $775,964
which is also about the same as the current quarter.  The most
significant change in revenues is the increase in oil and gas
revenues, increasing from $79,464 for the second quarter in 1996 to
$125,526 for the current quarter.  This represents a 58% increase in
revenues for this comparison and a 96% increase in oil and gas
revenues when comparing the first half of 1997 to the first half of
1996.  The increase is due to increased oil sales in Australia on the
Company's overriding royalties, especially ATP 299 and ATP 267. 
Australian revenues accounted for $113,246 out of the second quarter's
oil and gas revenues and $212,253 out of the first half of 1997 oil
and gas revenues.  Santos, the operator of ATP 299, has been very
aggressive in building production through additional drilling and
through efforts to bring existing wells into production.  Oil and gas
revenues for the previous quarter was $135,500 which is approximately
the same as the current quarter.  

The Company acquired additional interests during the second quarter in
ATP 299 and ATP 267 which add to interests already owned in these
Australian oil an gas concessions.  Note 3 of the financial statements
provides additional information regarding the purchase of these
interests for $41,428.

Of major importance is the acquisition of 95% of the 2,881.8 acre
Altair Ranch which is located within 45 miles of Houston, Texas.  The
sources of potential revenues for both short and long term are very
exciting for the Company.  See Note 6 of the financial statements for
further information.  

COST OF REVENUES:

Cost of revenues has remained fairly constant when comparing the
current quarter to the previous quarter, as well as to the second
quarter of 1996.  The item that did increase was the Australian
marketing costs.  This cost is directly related to the increase in oil
production from the Australian producing properties.  Direct materials
and supplies continued to decline from $80,159 for the quarter ended
June 30, 1996 and $47,977 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to the
current quarter amount of $36,065.  The six month figures also
reported a decline in material and supplies expenses from 1996 to 1997
($141,475 to $84,042, respectively).  This decline in materials and
supplies expense is related to the revamping and upgrading of certain
equipment and facilities in previous quarters.

Gross profit after costs of revenues remained about the same for the
second quarter of 1997 ($592,251) as the second quarter of 1996
($611,207) as well as the quarter ended March 31, 1997 which reported
$603,126 in gross profit.  The first six months gross profit of 1997
($1,195,377) increased $132,633 over the same six month period in 1996
($1,062,744).

OPERATING EXPENSES:

There were no material differences in operating expenses when
comparing the second quarter of 1997 ($381,291) to the previous
quarter ($300,500) or to the second quarter of 1996 ($330,961).  The
six month comparisons were also about the same.

Income from operations declined from $302,626 for the previous quarter
to $210,960 for the current quarter and also decreased when comparing
to the second quarter of 1996 ($280,246).  The six month periods,
however, reflect an increase when comparing the first six months of
1996 ($442,673) to the first six months of 1997 ($513,586).

NET INCOME:

Income before taxes for the current quarter reached $227,009 compared
to $320,306 for the previous quarter, and $272,868 for the second
quarter of 1996.  The income before taxes for the first six months of
1997 ($547,315) increased $108,344 over the same period in 1996
($438,971).

Net income for the current quarter is $215,612 compared to $152,679
for the previous quarter and $124,102 for the second quarter in 1996. 
These net income figures reflect a $.40 per share earnings for the
current quarter, $.28 for the previous quarter, and $.14 for the
second quarter of 1996.  The first six months of 1997 reported net
income of $368,291 compared to the same period of 1996 of $255,118. 
Per share earnings are $.68 and $.25 respectively.  See Note 2 of the
financial statements regarding the effect of the 1 for 3.5 reverse
stock split on the Company's financial statements.
