Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial 
Condition and Results of Operations

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Capital Expenditures

Effective September 30, 1993, the Company acquired certain oil 
and gas properties.  As a part of the financing of the 
acquisition, the Company entered into a volumetric production 
payment (see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) 
arrangement with Enron, which requires the Company to deliver 
substantial amounts of oil and gas.  Satisfying the delivery 
obligations is not expected to require all of the production or 
cash flows expected to be generated from the acquired properties.

The Company's 1994 production enhancement operations (on 6 wells) 
and its 1994 development drilling activities (3 operated wells 
and 1 non-operated well) had a negative impact on cash flows.  
Production enhancement operations require that a well's producing 
zones be shut-in while procedures are performed; while shut-in, 
the properties do not provide cash flows.  In addition, the 
production enhancement operations can be expensive.  Similarly, 
drilling operations required the expenditure of drilling funds 
months in advance of the receipt of revenues from the well 
drilled.  The effect of this combination of factors was seen in 
1994, when the Company recorded negative cash flows.

As of yearend 1994, the Company had drilled and completed 3 
wells, and was in the process or planning the drilling of 5 
additional wells.  The Company has, or is in the process of, 
permitting an additional 16 development locations for drilling in 
1995.  The Company expects to drill a total of at least 12 wells 
by mid-1995.  Cash flows from the 3 wells that were drilled and 
completed in 1994 were not received by the Company until late in 
the fourth quarter of that year.  The Company has budgeted 
$2,800,000 for the first phase of the drilling program.  It will 
then evaluate further drilling based upon the results of the 
initial drilling phase.

If, as intended, the Company pursues additional acquisitions of 
proven oil and gas properties, it will require additional 
acquisition capital.  The source of any such capital is not yet 
known, nor are any such acquisitions arranged.  If an acquisition 
is contracted, the Company would expect to finance it with a 
combination of debt and equity capital, although the details of 
such financing cannot be predicted at this time.  No assurance 
can be given that additional acquisitions will be arranged or 
that the acquisition capital necessary to complete them will be 
available.  

On April 15, 1994, the Company completed the private placement 
(the "Placement") of 400,000 shares of its Series B Mandatorily 
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share 
(the "Series B Stock").  The newly created Series B Stock bears 
an 8% dividend payable quarterly, and is convertible into shares 
of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $4.25 per 
share.  Gross proceeds from the Placement were $4,000,000; net 
proceeds were $3,774,000.  Mandatory redemption of this stock 
begins on April 1, 1997, when 20% of the total outstanding shares 
will be redeemed.  An additional 20% per year will be redeemed on 
each April 1 thereafter until all $4,000,000 of the Series B 
Stock has been redeemed.  The first $2,152,000 of net proceeds 
were applied to retire the net profits interest held by Enron 
(see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) that 
burdened certain of the Company's producing oil and gas 
properties.  The remaining net proceeds have been used to drill 
development wells and engage in other production enhancement 
operations on the Company's properties.

The Company is exploring several alternatives to realize the 
value of its mining properties.  Until a feasibility study 
relating to putting the Rio Chiquito deposit on production as a 
commercial gold and silver mine is completed, it is uncertain 
what the Company's share of any costs related to that undertaking 
will be.  No assurance can be given that the Company will be able 
to borrow its share of any capital required, although the Company 
may attempt to do so.  However, subsequent to yearend, the 
Company, in a private placement, sold 25,000 shares of Laguna's 
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for $2,500,000, which 
represents a 20% equity stake in Laguna.  Each share of Series A 
Preferred Convertible Stock includes 10 detachable warrants; each 
warrant represents the right to purchase one share of the 
Company's common stock at $2.50 per share.  The warrants expire 
on February 15, 2000.  Each share of Series A Convertible 
Preferred Stock can be converted into shares of Laguna common 
stock at the option of the stockholder, or automatically in the 
event of a public offering of the common stock of Laguna.  The 
private placement is scheduled to close on May 31, 1995.  The 
proceeds from this offering will be used to fund the operations 
of Laguna for a twelve month period.  The program includes 
additional core drilling to expand mineable reserves on the Rio 
Chiquito anomaly located on Laguna's Costa Rica concessions, and 
preparation of a bankable feasibility study for commercial 
development of Rio Chiquito in anticipation of making an initial 
public offering of Laguna stock when market conditions become 
favorable.  Proceeds will also be used to fund day-to-day 
operations of Laguna.  

At yearend, the Company had a working capital deficit of 
$1,764,000 compared to working capital of $462,000 at December 
31, 1993.  The decrease in working capital was caused primarily 
by increased accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,497,000.  
Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased due to costs 
incurred in drilling, reworking and development activities.  
Current liabilities also increased as a result of prepaid 
drilling advances of $207,000 compared to $103,000 last year.  
Accounts receivable increased by $257,000 due to higher joint 
interest billing receivables related to invoicing joint interest 
partners for enhancement work and the drilling program, partially 
offset by lower gas prices on gas sales receivable.  Inventory 
and other current assets decreased by $16,000.  

Further reducing the Company's ability to generate cash flows and 
positive working capital were the low gas prices received by the 
Company in the fourth quarter.  The low prices continued into the 
first quarter of 1995.  Generally, prices are beyond the control 
of the Company and it is limited in its ability to protect its 
economic interests from the effect of low prices.  

To relieve the working capital deficit, on February 15, 1995, the 
Company established a $2,500,000 line of credit with three 
private investors.  Borrowing under this line of credit bears 
interest at 11%, which is payable monthly.  The line of credit is 
collateralized by certain of the Company's oil and gas properties 
and is due February 15, 1998.  Amounts available under the line 
of credit will also be used to pay for the Company's drilling 
activities.  As of May 1, 1994, the Company had borrowed 
$2,000,000 under the line of credit.  Management believes that 
the ultimate result of the drilling activities, which are 
primarily aimed at oil production, will be to increase cash flow, 
thereby reduce the working capital deficit and increase 
liquidity.  However, drilling activities are subject to numerous 
risks, including the risk that no commercially productive oil or 
gas reservoirs will be encountered.  Also, the sales from 
successful drilling activities are affected by prevailing prices 
for oil and gas.  Hydrocarbon prices can be extremely volatile 
and can substantially affect the Company's revenues, cash flows 
and working capital.  There can be no assurance that the proceeds 
from the line of credit and drilling activities will eliminate 
the working capital deficit.  If they do not, however, the 
Company will take other measures to improve its working capital 
position.  While it has no current intention to do so, management 
could reduce expenses through staff layoffs and other means of 
expense reduction, sell non-core properties, or obtain additional 
financing.

The following table summarizes the revenues from oil and gas 
operations for the following years:

* Does include 961,000 mcf and 48,000 bbls in 1994 and 70,000 mcf 
and 6,000 bbls in 1993 delivered to Enron pursuant to the terms 
of the volumetric production payment agreement.

                     1994 Compared to 1993

The Company used net cash for operating activities of $235,000 in 
1994 compared to generating $10,114,000 in 1993.  Included in 
these losses is depreciation, depletion and amortization of 
$2,409,000 and $937,000, respectively.  Amortization of deferred 
revenue of $2,366,000 in 1994 and $184,000 in 1993 negatively 
impacted cash flow from operating activities.  A loss of 
$1,631,000 was incurred in 1994, $444,000 more than the loss of 
$1,187,000 experienced during 1993.  In 1993, proceeds from the 
volumetric production payment increased cash from operating 
activities by $10,002,000.  Other non-cash items were $93,000 and 
$210,000, in 1994 and 1993, respectively.  An increase in 
accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1,549,000 in 1994 
increased cash flows from operating activities, whereas increases 
in accounts receivable and other assets of $357,000 decreased 
available cash flows.

The Company's investing activities used cash flows of $2,081,000 
in 1994 compared with $13,056,000 last year.  The Company 
invested significantly more in reworking, recompleting, drilling 
and developing properties in 1994.  However, the Company 
completed a $22,400,000 acquisition effective January 1, 1993 (of 
which $7,343,000 was in the form of a note).  The adjusted 
purchase price on closing at September 30, 1993 was $20,391,000.  
The September 1993 acquisition of producing oil and gas 
properties has had a significant impact on the results of the 
Company's operations.  The results of operations from January 1, 
1993 to September 30, 1993 of the acquired properties were 
recorded as a reduction of the purchase price.

Financing activities netted cash flows of $1,440,000 in 1994, 
mainly due to the sale of the Company's Series B Stock resulting 
in net proceeds of $3,774,000.  Dividends on the Series B Stock 
totaled $228,000.  Also impacting cash flows provided by 
financing activities was payment of the Company's net profits 
interest and accrued interest, a change of $2,075,000 since 
yearend.  In 1993, financing activities provided cash flows of 
$3,683,000, reflecting the sale of $8,940,000 of the Company's 
common stock, proceeds from the exercise of options of $278,000, 
and the sale of the net profits interest of $1,998,000 which was 
reduced by a $120,000 origination fee.  Payments on long-term 
debt of $31,000 and $70,000 decreased cash provided by financing 
activities in 1994 and 1993, respectively.

Exclusive of quantities produced and delivered pursuant to the 
Company's volumetric production payment, 1994 oil and gas sales 
increased to $2,263,000 from $1,877,000 in 1993, representing a 
$386,000 (or 21%) increase.  This increase is due primarily to 
the September 1993 acquisition, and enhancement and drilling 
operations completed.  Oil production net to Mallon increased by 
28,000 barrels or approximately 40%.  Not included in the oil 
production totals presented above is 48,000 and 6,000 barrels in 
1994 and 1993, respectively, which were delivered to Enron in 
accordance with the terms of the volumetric production payment.  
Reserve engineering forecasts indicate oil production of 106,000 
barrels from proved developed producing reserves in 1995, after 
delivery of 37,000 barrels to Enron. These quantities do not 
include reserves to be produced from the Company's current 
drilling program.  Management believes that this drilling program 
will provide a substantial increase in oil production in 1995.  
Average oil prices increased from $14.75 per barrel in 1993 to 
$15.64 per barrel 1994, a 6% increase.  Through the first quarter 
of 1995, oil prices have continued to increase.

Gas production net to Mallon increased by 62,000 mcf (or 10%) in 
1994.  Natural gas production delivered to meet the demand of the 
volumetric production payment was 961,000 mcf in 1994, thereby 
limiting the net amount to the Company (70,000 mcf were delivered 
in 1993).  Further, production was curtailed in the Company's 
Burns Ranch area, further reducing gas production for the 
Company's account.  Reserve engineering forecasts indicate gas 
production of 490,000 mcf from proved developed producing 
reserves in 1995, after delivery of 849,000 mcf to Enron.  
Average gas prices decreased in 1994 by $.06 per mcf (or 4%).  
The decrease in gas prices adversely affects the Company's 
potential to generate cash flows.  However, prices have risen 
since yearend.

Included in total revenues for 1994 is $2,366,000 from the 
amortization of the Company's deferred revenues.  Deferred 
revenues were recorded from the sale of a volumetric production 
payment covering approximately 4.3 MMBTU of gas and 215,000 
barrels of oil.  The deferred revenue is amortized over eight 
years as deliveries are made to the purchaser.  The Company 
delivered approximately 961,000 mcf and 48,000 barrels to Enron 
in 1994.  The Company incurs all costs related to the production 
and delivery of these quantities.

Further limiting the Company's ability to generate cash flows was 
the fact that certain of the Company's significant wells, 
including the Mobil 12, the White Baby Comm. #1 and #2, the Eddy 
21 Federal #1, and the Allied 21 Federal #1 were shut-in during 
the first part of 1994 while production enhancement operations 
were performed.  Also, the South Carlsbad compressor was out of 
service during most of the first quarter.

Lease operating expense per equivalent barrel averaged $5.23 in 
1994, compared to $5.91 in 1993.  The decrease of $.68 (or 12%) 
is due primarily to the lower operating costs of the acquired 
properties and operational efficiencies employed by the Company's 
field personnel.  This reduction occurred despite substantial 
costs for significant workovers and repairs on the Company's 
properties in 1994.  The Company is constantly working to improve 
operations and decrease operating expense.  While total lease 
operating expenses may not decrease in 1995, management intends 
to continue the decrease in per barrel expense.

There were no sales of gold and silver in 1994 or 1993, and no 
sales are expected in the immediate future.  The Company 
recognized management fees of $81,000 associated with the Newmont 
operation in 1993.  This agreement expired as of March 31, 1993.  
Direct costs related to the mining operation were $169,000 in 
1994 and $133,000 in 1993.  Laguna has raised approximately 
$2,500,000 in early 1995.  The proceeds from this offering will 
be used to fund the operations of Laguna for a twelve month 
period.  The program includes additional core drilling to expand 
mineable reserves on the Rio Chiquito anomaly located on Laguna's 
Costa Rica concessions, and preparation of a bankable feasibility 
study for commercial development of Rio Chiquito in anticipation 
of making an initial public offering of Laguna stock when market 
conditions become favorable.  Proceeds will also be used to fund 
day-to-day operations of Laguna.  The net result should be an 
increase in cash flows to the Company in 1995.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased to $5.55 per 
barrel of oil equivalent for 1994, up from $5.13 in 1993.  The 
increase of $0.42 (or 8%) reflects a decrease in production in 
relation to the underlying reserve base, which declined due to 
low yearend gas prices and a significant downward revision as a 
result of decreased actual production on one of the Company's 
major properties.  As of December 31, 1994, the net book value of 
the Company's oil and gas properties exceeded the net present 
value of the underlying reserves by $916,000.  However, oil and 
gas prices have increased subsequent to yearend.  Applying these 
increased prices to yearend oil and gas reserves indicates that 
the oil and gas properties were not, in fact, impaired.  
Accordingly, the $916,000 impairment was not charged to expense 
as of December 31, 1994.

Interest and other expense of $116,000 was down significantly in 
1994 ($244,000 was incurred in 1993) as the Company incurred 
interest at 15% on its net profits interest in 1993.  The net 
profits interest was paid in April 1994.  However, the Company 
has a $2,500,000 line of credit established in 1995, which bears 
interest at 11%.  Accordingly, management expects interest 
expense to increase in 1995.

Total general and administrative costs were $1,806,000 in 1994, 
an increase of $623,000 (or 53%) over the $1,183,000 for 1993.  
The increase is due primarily to increased salary expense for 
additional personnel directly related to the September 1993 
acquisition.  Legal fees increased dramatically, as the Company 
was plaintiff in a complex lawsuit in which it sought substantial 
damages.  Travel expenses increased significantly due the effort 
in pursuing the realization of the mining property.  The Company 
had anticipated general and administrative expenses of 
approximately $1,500,000 for 1994.  The entire overrun was due 
almost exclusively to legal expenses of $360,000.  The Company 
has budgeted general and administrative expenses of approximately 
$1,600,000 for 1995.

The factors discussed above combined to result in a net loss of 
$1,631,000 for 1994, compared to a net loss of $1,187,000 for 
1993.  This represents a $444,000 (or 37%) decrease in the 
Company's profitability.

The Company paid the 8% dividend on its $4,000,000 face value 
Series B Stock.  This amount totaled $228,000 for the period from 
April 16, 1994 to December 31, 1994.  The annual dividend is 
$320,000, payable quarterly.

                     1993 Compared to 1992

The Company's revenues increased for 1993 to $2,391,000 from 
$1,977,000 in 1992 as a result of increased production, which is 
in turn attributable to having the Pennzoil Properties on 
production for the fourth quarter.  Mining revenues decreased as 
a contract expired in March 1993 and only three months of mining 
management fees were earned for the year.

Lease operating expense per equivalent barrel averaged $5.91 
during 1993 compared to $6.72 for 1992.  This improvement is 
primarily attributable to the lower operating costs of the 
Pennzoil Properties included in the operating results for the 
fourth quarter. 

Depreciation, depletion and amortization totaled $937,000 in 
1993, up $583,000 or 165% from the prior year.  This increase, 
which was expected, was the result of increased production and an 
increased depletion base.

General and administrative expenses also increased, as was 
expected, due to the acquisition of the Pennzoil Properties.  The 
increase of $292,000 was due largely to an increase in non-cash 
compensation paid to employees, consultants and directors of 
$44,000, an increase in salaries, bonuses and related taxes and 
benefits of $100,000, and an increase in professional fees of 
$40,000.

The 1993 net loss increased to $1,187,000 from a loss of $268,000 
in 1992.  The increased loss resulted because the increased 
revenues were more than offset by an increase in expenses, 
especially depreciation, depletion and amortization and interest 
expense.

Miscellaneous

The Company's oil and gas operations are significantly affected 
by certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the 
"Code") applicable to the oil and gas industry.  Current law 
permits the Company to deduct currently, rather than capitalize, 
intangible drilling and development costs incurred or borne by 
it.  The Company, as an independent producer, is also entitled to 
a deduction for percentage depletion with respect to the first 
1,000 barrels per day of domestic crude oil (and/or equivalent 
units of domestic natural gas) produced by it (if such percentage 
depletion exceeds cost depletion).  Generally, this deduction is 
15% of gross income from an oil and gas property, without 
reference to the taxpayer's basis in the property.  The 
percentage depletion deduction may not exceed 100% of the taxable 
income from a given property.  Further, percentage depletion is 
limited in the aggregate to 65% of the Company's taxable income.  
Any depletion disallowed under the 65% limitation, however, may 
be carried over indefinitely.

At December 31, 1994, the Company had a net operating loss 
("NOL") carryforward of approximately $7,000,000, which will 
begin to expire in 2005.  The amount and availability of an NOL 
carryforward is subject to a variety of interpretations and 
restrictions.  Under a provision of the Code, a corporation's 
ability to utilize an NOL carryforward to offset income following 
an "ownership change" is limited.  If an ownership change occurs, 
the ability of the Company to use its NOL carryforward will be 
limited so that a portion of the Company's NOL carryforward will 
not be available to offset the Company's taxable income in a 
particular year.  Management is not aware of any such ownership 
change.

The Company has in the past and may in the future engage in 
hedging transactions (transactions in which a portion of the 
Company's future oil and/or gas production is sold into the 
futures market) when management believes it is in the Company's 
interest to do so.  Such transactions "lock-in" prices, thus 
protecting against future price downturns, but they also limit 
the Company's ability to benefit from future price increases.

Inflation has not historically had a material impact on the 
Company's financial statements, and management does not believe 
that the Company will be materially more or less sensitive to the 
effects of inflation than other companies in the oil and gas 
business.

In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board 
released Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires an asset and 
liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for 
income taxes.  The new standard was adopted by the Company in 
fiscal 1993.  The impact of SFAS No. 109 on the Company's 
consolidated financial statements was immaterial.  At December 
31, 1994 the Company has a net deferred tax asset of $963,000, 
for which a valuation allowance for an equal amount was 
established.

                REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Mallon Resources Corporation

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in 
the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, 
the financial position of Mallon Resources Corporation and its 
subsidiaries at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of 
their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in 
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  These 
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the 
Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion 
on these financial statements based on our audits.  We conducted 
our audits of these statements in accordance with generally 
accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and 
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether 
the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An 
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting 
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 
assessing the accounting principles used and significant 
estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits 
provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

As discussed in Note 1, the Company restated its 1994 
consolidated financial statements related to accounting for its 
Series B Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock.

As of December 31, 1994, the Company had a net investment in 
mineral properties and equipment of approximately $4,500,000.  
The ability of the Company to recover this investment is 
dependent upon achieving and maintaining profitable operations at 
the mine or sale of the property.  Management's plans in this 
regard are discussed in Note 3.

audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating 
the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that 
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to 
above present fairly, in all material respects, the results of

            MALLON RESOURCES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING 
POLICIES

Organization:
    Mallon Resources Corporation (the "Company" or "MRC") was 
incorporated on July 18, 1988 under the laws of the State of 
Colorado.  The Company had no significant business activity until 
December 21, 1988 when the combination of two companies and 19 
limited partnerships into MRC became effective (the 
"Consolidation").  The participants in the Consolidation were 
Mallon Oil Company ("MOC"), a privately held Colorado 
corporation, Mallon Minerals Corporation (which is now known as 
Laguna Gold Company ("LGC")), a publicly held Colorado 
corporation, 15 Colorado limited partnerships for which MOC 
served as a general partner and four Colorado limited 
partnerships for which LGC served as a general partner.  
Effective December 21, 1988, the Company issued shares of its 
$0.01 par value common stock in exchange for all of the shares of 
MOC and LGC and for the net assets of all of the partnerships.

Principles of Consolidation:
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of 
MOC, LGC, and all of their wholly owned subsidiaries.  All 
significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been 
eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.

Cash Equivalents:
    Cash equivalents include amounts which are readily 
convertible into cash and have an original maturity of three 
months or less, such as bankers acceptances, certificates of 
deposit, and commercial paper.

Inventories:
    Inventories, which are composed of oil and gas lease and well 
equipment, and mining materials and supplies, are valued at the 
lower of average cost or estimated net realizable value.

Oil and Gas Properties:
    Oil and gas properties are accounted for using the full cost 
method of accounting.  Under this method, all costs associated 
with property acquisition, exploration and development are 
capitalized.  All such costs are in one cost center, the 
continental United States.  Costs incurred on foreign oil and gas 
properties are not material.

    Proceeds on disposal of properties are ordinarily accounted 
for as adjustments of capitalized costs, with no profit or loss 
recognized, unless such adjustment would significantly alter the 
relationship between capitalized costs and proved oil and gas 
reserves.  Costs capitalized net of accumulated depreciation, 
depletion and amortization, and the deferred revenue from the 
volumetric production payment, cannot exceed the estimated future 
net revenues, net of the related income tax effects, discounted 
at 10%, of the Company's proved reserves.

    Depletion is calculated using the units-of-production method 
based upon the ratio of current period production to estimated 
proved oil and gas reserves expressed in physical units, with oil 
and gas converted to a common unit of measure on the basis of 
their relative energy content.

    Estimated abandonment costs (including estimated plugging, 
site restoration, and dismantlement expenditures) are accrued if 
the estimated costs exceed estimated salvage values, as 
determined using current market values and other information.  
Abandonment costs are estimated based primarily on environmental 
and regulatory requirements in effect from time to time.  As of 
December 31, 1994, estimated salvage values equaled or exceeded 
estimated abandonment costs.

Mineral Properties and Equipment:
    The Company expenses general prospecting costs as incurred 
while the costs of acquiring and exploring unproved mining 
properties are capitalized, pending a decision as to the 
commercial profitability of projects.  Costs of subsequent 
development of mining operations are deferred.  When commercially 
profitable ore reserves are developed, deferred costs are 
amortized when operations commence using the units-of-production 
method based on the estimated tons of ore to be recovered.  Upon 
abandonment or sale of projects, all deferred costs relating to 
the specific project are expensed in the year abandoned or sold 
and the gain or loss is recognized.  Proceeds from advanced 
royalties are accounted for as adjustments of capital costs, with 
no profit or loss recognized.

    Mining equipment is depreciated using the units-of-production 
method, except during suspended operations.  When not in 
production, this equipment is depreciated at approximately 2% per 
year.

    Capitalized costs, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion 
and amortization, may not exceed the estimated net realizable 
value of the properties, as determined by management on a 
quarterly basis.  Management estimates net realizable values 
based on reserve reports (including informal deposit, resource 
and reserve estimates prepared by Company staff), feasibility 
studies, engineering data, commodity prices and market trends, 
actual or projected mining and operating costs, estimated income, 
severance and other taxes, and other information deemed to be 
relevant to such estimations.  As of December 31, 1994, 
capitalized costs were less than estimated net realizable values.

Other Property and Equipment:
    Other property and equipment are recorded at cost, and 
depreciated over their estimated useful lives (five to seven 
years) using the straight-line method.  The cost of normal 
maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred.  
Significant expenditures which increase the life of an asset are 
capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the 
asset. Upon retirement or disposition of assets, related gains or 
losses are reflected in operations.

Gas Balancing:
    The Company uses the entitlements method for recording 
natural gas sales revenues.  Under the entitlements method of 
accounting, revenue is recorded based on the Company's net 
working interest in field production.  Deliveries of natural gas 
in excess of the Company's working interest are recorded as 
liabilities while under-deliveries  are recorded as receivables.

Intangible Assets:
    Intangible assets are recorded at cost and are amortized over 
their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.

Deferred Revenues:
    Revenues billed in advance for services are deferred and 
recorded in income in the period in which the related services 
are rendered.  Revenues received in advance of production are 
classified as deferred revenue.  The deferred revenue is 
amortized as production and delivery occur.

Income Taxes:
    In fiscal 1993, the Company adopted the provisions of 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards  ("SFAS") No. 109, 
"Accounting for Income Taxes".  SFAS No. 109 requires the 
recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the 
expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between 
the carrying amounts and tax bases of those assets and 
liabilities.  The adoption of SFAS No. 109 had no impact on the 
Company's 1993 consolidated financial statements.

    The benefits of  tax credits will be reflected as a reduction 
of income tax expense in the year in which management determines 
that such credits are more likely than not realized.

Management Fees:
    Management fees received in connection with oil and gas 
properties are credited to the full cost pool.  All other 
management fees are recorded as income when earned.

Foreign Currency Translation:
    Management has determined the U.S. dollar to be the 
functional currency for Costa Rican operations.  Accordingly, the 
assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Costa Rican 
subsidiaries are measured in U.S. dollars.  Transaction gains and 
losses are not material for any of the periods presented.

Per Share Data:
    Per share data is calculated using the weighted average 
number of common shares outstanding during each period.  Common 
equivalent shares are excluded from the calculation because they 
are anti-dilutive.

Change in Reporting of Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible 
Preferred Stock:
    The Company has corrected the accounting for its Mandatorily 
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock.  The balance of such 
preferred stock has been reclassified and is now presented outside
the equity section.  Further, the Company is recording accretion for
the difference between the net proceeds received and the mandatory 
redemption amount of $4,000,000.  The effect of this correction was
to reduce stockholder's equity at December 31, 1994 by $3,804,000
and to increase the net loss available to common stockholders and
the net loss per common share for the year ended December 31, 1994
by $30,000 and $.01, respectively.

Note 2.  OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

    The Company's oil and gas activities are conducted entirely 
in the United States.  Although the Company has made a bid for 
oil and gas concessions in Costa Rica, no concessions have been 
awarded, and the Company has not incurred significant costs to 
date.  Therefore, all data herein is associated with the 
continental United States cost center.

    Depletion of oil and gas property costs were $2.57, $5.13 and 
$5.55 per equivalent barrel of oil production for the years ended 
December 31, 1992, 1993, and 1994, respectively.

    In March 1993, the Company signed a letter of intent for the 
purchase of interests in certain properties for $23 million.  On 
September 30, 1993, the Company closed the transaction for an 
adjusted purchase price of approximately $19,300,000.  The 
purchase price was paid through the sale of a volumetric 
production payment for net proceeds of $10,002,000, the sale of a 
net profits interest for $1,998,000, which was repaid in April 
1994, and a note payable to the seller of $7,343,000, which was 
paid in November 1993.

    The operations of the acquired properties have been included 
with the Company's accompanying consolidated statements of 
operations, beginning October 1, 1993.  The following represents 
the unaudited pro forma results of operations for the year ended 
December 31, 1993, assuming the acquisition had taken place as of 
January 1, 1993:

    Total revenues                                 $6,006,000

    Net loss available to common stockholders      $ (242,000)

</TABLE>

    The Company does not have significant costs of unproved 
properties or costs excluded from the full cost pool amortization 
base.  As of December 31, 1994, the net book value of the 
Company's oil and gas properties exceeded the net present value 
of the underlying reserves by $906,000.  However, oil and gas 
prices increased subsequent to yearend.  Applying these increased 
prices to yearend oil and gas reserves indicates that the oil and 
gas properties were not, in fact, impaired.  Accordingly, the 
$906,000 impairment was not charged to expense as of December 31, 
1994.

Estimated Quantities of Proved Oil and Gas Reserves (unaudited):
    Set forth below is a summary of the changes in the net 
quantities of the Company's proved crude oil and natural gas 
reserves estimated by an independent consulting petroleum 
engineering firm for the years ended December 31, 1992, 1993, and 
1994.  All of the Company's reserves are located in the 
continental United States.

</TABLE>

    Much of the downward revision in total gas reserves in 1994 
is attributable to a 27% decrease in gas prices and a significant 
downward revision as a result of decreased actual production on 
one of the Company's major properties.

</TABLE>

    Reserves to be delivered pursuant to the Company's volumetric 
production payment discussed in Note 6 are excluded from the SFAS 
No. 69 calculations presented herein.  Accordingly, the 
standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, which 
is cash flow based, does not include deferred revenues to be 
amortized as production and delivery occurs in the future.  
However, all costs related to such production and delivery, which 
is a commitment of the Company, are included.

    There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating 
quantities of proved oil and gas reserves and in projecting the 
future rates of production, particularly as to natural gas, and 
timing of development expenditures.  Such estimates involve the 
use of judgments which may not be realized due to curtailment, 
shut-in conditions and other factors which cannot be accurately 
determined.  The above information represents estimates only and 
should not be construed as the current market value of the 
Company's oil and gas reserves or the costs that would be 
incurred to obtain equivalent reserves.

Note 3.  MINERAL PROPERTIES

    The Company's principal precious metals property is the Rio 
Chiquito project located in Guanacaste Province, Costa Rica.  The 
net book value of the mineral properties and equipment was 
approximately $4,500,000 at December 31, 1994.  The Company, 
through its subsidiary LGC, holds 12 exploration concessions and 
one exploitation concession covering approximately 182 square 
kilometers or about 45,000 acres.  A 2% gross royalty on 
production from the Rio Chiquito is reserved for the government 
of Costa Rica.  Sunshine Mining Corp. owns a 5% net profits 
interest.  LGC believes that it has valid rights to the Rio 
Chiquito concessions, and that all necessary exploration work has 
been performed.

    In 1984, LGC began active exploration and evaluation of the 
Rio Chiquito prospect.  In April 1987, construction of a small 
open pit mine and pilot project processing facility commenced.  
Mining and leaching operations began in October 1987 and the 
first shipment of gold and silver concentrate occurred in January 
1988.  Subsequently, LGC experienced negative cash flow from 
operations due to low volume of ore processed and the resulting 
high unit operating cost.  LGC suspended mining operations 
effective July 1, 1989 and continuous recovery operations were 
terminated in October 1989.

    In order to achieve profitable operations, management 
believes that an additional capital investment is required for 
equipment and improvements which would increase production rates 
and lower unit costs.  Such equipment and improvements would 
include additional mining equipment, installation of permanent 
electricity, and improvements to the processing facilities.  
During the mine shutdown period, the Company pursued discussions 
with several possible joint venture partners for a possible joint 
exploration and development program and, on January 3, 1992, the 
Company signed an agreement with Newmont Mining Corporation 
whereby Newmont had certain rights to explore and develop the Rio 
Chiquito gold mine.  For these rights, Newmont agreed to expend 
$1.3 million on the property.  Newmont carried out a core drill 
program and geochemical sampling program before their agreement 
ended December 31, 1992.  The Newmont agreement was terminated as 
of December 31, 1992; however, Newmont agreed to continue paying 
to the Company the $30,000 per month management fee called for 
under the venture agreement through March 1993.  After Newmont's 
withdrawal, the project is owned 90% by the Company and 10% by 
Red Rock Ventures, Inc. ("Red Rock").  As part of the joint 
venture agreement, the owner of Red Rock bought 50,000 shares of 
the Company's common stock at $2.00 per share and 50,000 shares 
at $2.25 per share, and had options to buy 50,000 shares for 
$2.50 per share (which were exercised in March 1993) and 50,000 
shares for $2.75 per share in 1993 (which were exercised in 
September 1993).

    On January 6, 1993, Mallon signed a letter agreement with 
Polymet Resources Corporation (Polymet), a subsidiary of Minproc 
Corporation, to carry out a feasibility study on the Rio Chiquito 
mine.  The scope of this project was to study the ore body, the 
metallurgy of the ore, design an appropriate recovery system and 
present this information in an appropriate manner to help secure 
financing to open the mine and construct the proper processing 
facility.  For this work, Polymet was to receive an ownership 
interest in the mine.  That agreement expired.  Subsequent to 
December 31, 1994, the Company and Polymet completed an agreement 
under which the Company paid Polymet $200,000 in exchange for 
Polymet's  delivery to the Company of all studies, reports, data, 
and other information Polymet obtained in connection with the 
original feasibility study.

    Subsequent to yearend, the Company privately placed 25,000 
shares of LGC's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for 
$2,500,000.  The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are 
convertible into 20% of LGC's common stock.  The net effect of  
this sale is that the Company will retain an 80% equity stake in 
LGC.  Each share of Series A Preferred Convertible Stock includes 
10 detachable warrants; each warrant represents the right to 
purchase one share of the Company's common stock at $2.50 per 
share.  The warrants expire on February 15, 2000.  Each share of 
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock can be converted into 100 
shares of LGC $.01 par value common stock at the option of the 
stockholder, or automatically in the event of a public offering 
of the common stock.  The private placement is scheduled to close 
May 31, 1995.

Note 4.  NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT

    Effective April 18, 1988, LGC purchased certain ore crushing 
and handling equipment under a note agreement with an original 
principal balance of $91,000.  The balance at December 31, 1993 
of $30,000 was paid during 1994.

    On September 30, 1993, the Company purchased certain oil and 
gas properties.  The purchase price was paid in part by delivery 
of a promissory note in the principal amount of $7,343,000.  The 
principal and accrued interest (8%) thereon was paid on November 
24, 1993.  As part of the financing of the acquisition, the 
Company sold a net profits interest (the "NPI") that provided 
that 80% of the net revenues generated from the acquired 
properties (exclusive of production delivered in satisfaction of 
the Production Payment described in Note 6) were payable until 
such payments aggregated $1,998,000, plus interest thereon equal 
to 15% per annum.  The NPI and accrued interest (a total of 
$2,152,000) was retired in April 1994.

    On February 15, 1995, the Company established a $2,500,000  
line of credit pursuant to a loan agreement with three private 
investors.  Borrowings under this line of credit, which totaled 
$2,000,000 as of May 1, 1995, bear interest at 11%, which is due 
and payable monthly.  The line of credit is collateralized by 
certain of the Company's oil and gas properties and is due 
February 15, 1998.

Note 5.  DRILLING ADVANCES

    In 1988 the Company sold a portion of its working interest in 
seven proved developed and various undeveloped gas properties 
located in the Burns Ranch Field to a group of related and 
unrelated investors.  Proceeds from the sale were divided between 
acquisition costs and future drilling and completion costs which 
were recorded in the books under current liabilities as deferred 
revenues and drilling advances.

    Because gas prices are low and excess gas supplies exist, the 
Company has no current plans to drill in this area in 1995.  
Therefore, approximately 75% of these proceeds, which were 
advanced as turnkey drilling contracts payments, have been 
classified as long-term debt at December 31, 1993 and 1994.

Note 6.  DEFERRED REVENUE

    In connection with the Company's September 30, 1993 
acquisition of producing oil and gas properties, the Company sold 
a volumetric production payment payable out of the Company's 
interest in the acquired properties for net proceeds of 
$10,002,000.

    The production payment covers approximately 4,354,000 MMBTU 
of natural gas at an average price of $1.98 and 215 MBbls barrels 
of oil at an average price of $13.01 per barrel to be delivered 
over eight years.  The Company is responsible for production 
costs associated with operating the properties subject to the 
production payment agreement.  The amount received is recorded as 
deferred revenue.  Annual amortization of deferred revenue, based 
on the scheduled remaining deliveries under the production 
payment agreement is as follows:

Note 7.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Leases:
    The Company leases office space under non-cancelable leases 
which expire October 1997.  Rental expense is recognized on a 
straight-line basis over the term of the lease.  The Company has 
no other lease agreements that have initial or remaining non-
cancelable lease terms in excess of one year.  The total minimum 
rental commitments at December 31, 1994 are as follows:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
<S>             <C>
    1995         $  81,000
    1996            81,000
    1997            68,000

                 $ 230,000
</TABLE>

    Rent expense was $56,000, $56,000 and $74,000 for the years 
ended December 31, 1992, 1993, and 1994, respectively.

Benefit Plans:
    Effective January 1, 1989, the Company and its affiliates 
established the Mallon Resources Corporation 401(k) Profit 
Sharing Plan (the "401(k) Plan").  MRC and its affiliates match 
an employee's contribution to the 401(k) Plan in an amount up to 
25% of his or her eligible monthly contributions.  The Company 
may also contribute additional amounts at the discretion of the 
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, contingent upon 
realization of earnings by the Company which, in the sole 
discretion of the Compensation Committee, are adequate to justify 
a corporate contribution.  For the years ended December 31, 1992, 
1993 and 1994, the Company made $4,000, $6,000 and $8,000, 
respectively, of matching contributions and no discretionary 
contributions.

    The Company maintains a plan to provide additional 
compensation to employees from lease revenues which are included 
in a pool to be distributed at the discretion of the Chairman of 
the Board.  For the years ended December 31, 1992, 1993 and 1994, 
a total of $30,000, $40,000 and $59,000, respectively, was 
distributed to employees.

Contingencies:
    In 1993, the Minerals Management Service commenced an audit 
of royalties payable on certain oil and gas properties in which 
the Company owns an interest.  The operator of the properties is 
contesting certain deficiencies.  The audit is not complete, and 
it is not possible for the Company to estimate any potential 
liability.  However, management of the Company does not believe 
that the ultimate outcome of this matter will have a material 
negative impact on the financial position, liquidity or results 
of operations of the Company.  This matter has been dormant for 
more than a year.  

    The Company is a defendant in a matter which arises out of an 
automobile accident involving one of the Company's employees.  
The matter has been referred to the Company's automobile 
insurance carrier for defense.  The Company does not believe it 
will have exposure for damages beyond its insurance coverage 
limits.  

Note 8.  MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

    On April 15, 1994, the Company completed the private 
placement (the "Placement") of 400,000 shares  of its new Series 
B Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par 
value per share ("Series B Stock").  Mandatory redemption of this 
stock begins on April 1, 1997, when 20% of the total outstanding 
shares will be redeemed.  An additional 20% per year will be 
redeemed on each April 1 thereafter until all $4,000,000 of the 
Series B Stock has been redeemed.  The newly created Series B 
Stock bears an 8% dividend payable quarterly, and is convertible 
into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price 
of $4.25 per share. Gross proceeds from the Placement were 
$4,000,000 and net proceeds were approximately $3,774,000.  In 
connection with the Series B Stock, dividends of $228,000 were 
paid in 1994.

Note 9.  CAPITAL

Preferred Stock:
    The Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 
10,000,000 shares of preferred stock having a par value of $.01 
per share, to establish the number of shares to be included in 
each series and to fix the designation, rights, preferences and 
limitations of the shares of each series.

    The 1,100,919 shares of Series A Preferred Stock are 
convertible to common stock of the Company on a share for share 
basis at any time at the option of the holder, or automatically 
if the common stock of the Company trades at $5.39 per share.  
The Series A Preferred Stock provides for a non-cumulative, 
preferential dividend only to the extent declared by the 
Company's Board of Directors.  The Series A Preferred Stock has a 
preference on liquidation of $6,000,000 (the original face 
value); thereafter, after an equivalent amount has been 
distributed to the holders of common stock, it shares 
proportionately with the common stock.  It has the right to one 
vote for each share of common stock into which it could be 
converted, with voting powers equal to holders of common stock.  
In addition, the Series A Preferred Stock has the right to elect 
one director to the Company's Board of Directors.  The Series A 
Preferred Stock is not redeemable and may not be called.

Common Stock:
    The Company has reserved 1,113,173 and 941,177 shares of 
common stock for issuance upon a possible conversion of the 
Series A and Series B Stock, respectively.

    The Company adopted the Mallon Resources Corporation 1988 
Equity Participation Plan (the "Equity Plan").  Under the Equity 
Plan, 1,000,000 shares of common stock have been reserved in 
order to provide for incentive compensation and awards to 
employees and consultants.  The Equity Plan provides that a three 
member committee may grant stock options, awards, stock 
appreciation rights, and other forms of stock-based compensation 
in accordance with the provisions of the Equity Plan.  No grants 
or awards were made under the Equity Plan until June 22, 1990.

    On June 22, 1990, the Compensation Committee of the Board of 
Directors of the Company approved the grant of options for 
178,800 shares of the Company's common stock to certain officers 
and employees, exercisable at a price of $0.01 per share.  
Subsequently, options for 31,560 shares that had not vested were 
canceled due to employee resignations.  During 1994, an 
additional 69,000 options were issued to certain officers and 
employees exercisable at a price of $.01 per share, which vest 
annually beginning in 1995 through 1999.  As of December 31, 
1994, options for 112,380 shares were vested and exercisable.  
The difference between the exercise price and the estimated fair 
value of the shares at the date of grant is charged to 
compensation expense with a corresponding increase to 
Stockholders' Equity.

    Also on June 22, 1990, options exercisable at $.01 per share 
for 10 years were granted that do not vest until the market price 
of the Company's common stock exceeds certain prices for in 
excess of 120 consecutive days, as follows:

    Stock Price        Aggregate
    in excess of:    shares covered:
       $  8.00          20,750
       $10.00           20,750
       $12.00           41,500

    Management of the Company reviews the probability of these 
options vesting on a quarterly basis.  When management believes 
it is probable that the stock will reach the required levels for 
vesting, it will begin accruing compensation expense based on the 
difference between the market price of the stock at that date and 
the exercise price.  No compensation expense was recorded for 
these options during the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 
1992.  Any difference between the amount of accrued compensation 
at the date the stock has attained the required level for 120 
consecutive days and the amount accrued will be charged to 
operations in that period.

    The Board of Directors of the Company approved a Stock 
Compensation Plan for outside directors of the Company.  This 
plan provides that the Company's outside directors (presently 
three in number) will be compensated by periodically granting 
them shares of the Company's $0.01 par value common stock worth 
$1,000 for each board meeting, but no less than $4,000 per year, 
for each outside director.  The Company has expensed $8,000, 
$12,000 and $11,000  for the years 1992, 1993 and 1994, 
respectively.

    In November 1992, the Company granted to a consultant options 
to purchase 50,000 shares at $6.50 per share, exercisable from 
November 1993 through October 1997.

    During 1992, Red Rock Ventures, Inc. purchased 50,000 shares 
of the Company's common stock at $2.00 per share and 50,000 
shares at $2.25 per share.  During 1993, Red Rock purchased 
50,000 additional shares at $2.50 per share and 50,000 shares at 
$2.75 per share.  Red Rock is the Company's joint venture partner 
in the Rio Chiquito project.

    In April 1993, the Company sold 200,000 shares of its common 
stock for net proceeds of $931,000 in a private placement 
offering.

    Also in April 1993, the Company issued 30,000 shares of 
common stock at $5.00 per share to an existing stockholder in 
satisfaction of an obligation relating to the drilling of a well.

    In November 1993, the Company completed a private placement 
of its common stock, selling 2,013,888 shares at $4.50 per share 
resulting in net proceeds of $8,025,000.  A registration 
statement on Form S-3 was filed, and declared effective in 
November 1993, which will permit the investors to sell their 
shares without further registration.

    In February 1994, the Company issued 66,700 shares of its 
common stock to an individual who is a partner in the same law 
firm as one of the Company's directors.  The Company recorded the 
stock at the fair value of the stock on the date of grant of 
$300,000.  Subsequent to yearend, an additional 56,000 shares, 
valued at $112,000, were issued to the same individual.  Also 
subsequent to yearend, $32,000 was paid to this same individuals 
for consulting services provided.

    At December 31, 1994, for tax purposes the Company's 
remaining net operating loss ("NOL") carryforward was 
approximately $6,900,000 which will begin to expire in 2005.  
This tax loss carryforward is in addition to net operating losses 
arising from the operations of LGC prior to 1989 which can be 
utilized only to the extent of future taxable income of LGC, but 
limited to consolidated taxable income. 

    Under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the 
"Code"), the Company generally would be entitled to reduce its 
future federal income tax liabilities by carrying the unused NOL 
forward for a period of 15 years to offset its future income 
taxes.  The Company's ability to utilize any NOL in future years 
may be restricted, however, in the event the Company undergoes an 
"ownership change" as defined in the Code.  Management is not 
aware of any such change.

Note 13.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

    The accounts receivable from related parties consists 
primarily of joint interest billings to directors, officers, 
stockholders, employees and affiliated entities for drilling and 
operating costs incurred on oil and gas properties in which these 
related parties participate with MOC and MOC partnerships as 
working interest owners.  These amounts will generally be settled 
in the ordinary course of business without interest.

    Notes receivable of $41,000 and $43,000 at December 31, 1993 
and 1994, respectively, consist of loans to employees, which bear 
interest at prime plus 2%.

    On June 30, 1993, the Company acquired all of the stock of 
Fruitland Gas Corporation ("FGC") in exchange for 400,000 shares 
of the Company's common stock.  The acquisition was made in order 
to acquire the acreage in the Burns Ranch gas field that was 
owned by the seller.  The value of the acreage acquired, net of a 
$171,000 receivable owed by FGC to the Company, was set at 
$2,500,000, a value deemed "fair" in the opinion of an 
independent third party appraiser.  For purposes of the exchange, 
shares of the Company's common stock were valued at $6.25.  The 
shares issued in the transaction are restricted securities.  The 
acquisition was accounted for as a reorganization of entities 
under common control and recorded at predecessor cost.  The 
assets and operations of FGC are insignificant to the Company's 
balance sheet and results of operations.  FGC is owned by the 
former shareholders of MOC, two of whom are also directors of the 
Company, and one of whom is also chairman of the Company.  The 
former shareholders of FGC also own Deep Gas LLC, a Colorado 
limited liability company that acquired the mineral rights 
underlying the Burns Ranch gas field at depths more than 20 feet 
below the bottom of the Pictured Cliffs geologic formation from 
FGC immediately prior to the Company's acquisition of FGC.

    Certain oil and gas properties located in Alabama, in which 
the Company has working interests, are operated by a company 
owned by an individual who also owns, beneficially, in excess of 
5% of the Company's common stock.  As of December 31, 1993 and 
1994, the Company had a payable to the related company of $14,000 
and $7,000, respectively, which is included in accounts payable 
on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

    Red Rock is owned by an individual who owns, beneficially, in 
excess of 5% of the Company's common stock.  The Company has 
receivables from (payables to) the stockholder of $7,000 and 
$(9,000) as of December 31, 1993 and 1994, respectively, which 
are included in joint interest receivables on the accompanying 
consolidated balance sheets.

    During the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company paid 
legal fees of $1,100 to a law firm of which a director of the 
Company is a senior partner.  That firm is also representing the 
Company in connection with a current litigation matter.  
Additionally, consulting fees valued at $300,000 were paid to a 
member of the firm in the form of 66,700 shares of the Company's 
common stock.  In January 1995, an additional 56,000 shares 
valued at $112,000 were issued for services to the same 
individual.  Also in 1995, fees of $32,000 were paid to this 
individual.

    During the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company recorded 
consulting and other fees of $200,000, of which $16,667 was 
payable at yearend to an investment banking firm in which a 
director is a partner.  The Company also has a consulting 
agreement with that firm for investment banking services of 
$400,000 in 1995.

    In February 1995, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement 
establishing a $2,500,000 line of credit facility pursuant to 
which it can borrow funds from three entities, two of which are 
affiliates of an individual who owns, beneficially, in excess of 
5% of the Company's outstanding common stock.
