NOTE 1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and,

Except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in

NOTE 2.   OIL AND LIMESTONE OPERATIONS

The Company acquired its limestone reserves in July, 1992 through
the acquisition of Calox Corporation.  The Company has not com-
menced production and developement activities on these acquired
reserves.  The following summarizes activity related to these
acquired reserves:

                                   LIMESTONE             OIL

The accompanying table reflects the standardized measure of
discounted future net cash flows relating to Petro Union, Inc.'s
interest in proved reserves as of June 30, 1996:

                                LIMESTONE             OIL      
Future cash inflows           $367,290,000        $ 37,453,500
Futere Costs:
     Developement              (18,000,000)         (3,000,000)
     Production               (202,000,000)        (21,809,145)
Future income tax expense      (44,074,800)         (3,793.307)

Future net cash flows          102,841,200           8,851,049
10% discount to reflect
  timing of cash flows         (77,698,967)         (3,412,463)

Standarized measure of
discounted future net
cash flows                      25,142,233           5,438,586 

Discounted future net cash
  flows before income tax       35,917,475           7,769,409 


Future cash inflows are computed by applying year-end prices of
limestone and oil relating to the year-end quantities of those
reserves.  Future developement and production cost are computed
by independent consultants by estimating the expenditures to be
incurred in developing and producing limestone and oil reserves
at the end of the year, based on year-end cost and assuming
continuation of existing economic conditions.

Future income tax expenses are computed by applying the
appropriate statutory tax rates to the future pretax net cash
flows relating to proved reserves, exclusive of the tax basis of
the properties involved.  The future income tax expenses give
effect to permanent differences and tax credits, but do not
reflect the impact of continuing operations.  Future income tax
expenses have been reduced by the estimated future
nonconventional fuel source income tax credits to be utilized. 

The 10% annual discount is applied to refect the timing of the
future net cash flows.  The standarized measure of discounted
cash flows is the future net cash flows less the computed
discounts.

The Company is obligated under various working interest leases
for oil extraction.  The Company's working interest in these
leases varies from 3 to 100%.  Working interest reserves are
included calculations of reserves and net future revenues.

The Company has elected to use the successful efforts method of
accounting for its oil and gas operations.

Coal Company, Inc., a Kentucky corporation for $3,052,000 cash
with $100,000 payable on April 10, 1993 and $2,952,000 due August
15, 1993, 1,000,000 restricted common shares and a 1% overriding
royalty on controlled reserves in place upon the signing of the
contract.  A $1,052,000 note due from the former stockholder to
be forgiven by the Company as a non-compete agreement for five
years.

In April, 1995, the Company discontinued the operations of its
coal mining segment.  This decision resulted from the following
events:

1.   Involuntary conversion of the Company's investment in Green 
     Coal Company by a Bankruptcy Judge on August 8, 1994; and

2.   Loss of the Company's leasehold interest in the Central City 
     coal reserves in Muhlenberg County, Kentucky, due to the
     Company's inability to pay lease royalties due April 1994,
     and April, 1995.

The discontinuance of the Company's coal operations was effective
as of August 8, 1994.  Accordingly, the revenues and expenses ap-
plicable to the discontinued segment have been removed from the
appropiate accounts and presented as a seperate line item in the
statement of operations. 



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

                           RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

              COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED June 30, 1996
                  TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED June 30, 1995

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1996 increased
$53,471 over the same period in 1995 due to horizontal drilling
service work performed in this quarter.

Cost of Revenue and General and Administrative Expenses decreased
$16,227 over the same period in 1995, due to a reduction of legal
and consulting charges.


                      LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Negative working capital of $1,023,603 at June 30, 1996 increased
$18,457 from the negative working capital of $1,005,146 for the
period ended March 31, 1996.

The Company has been unable to meet its obligations and on May
13, 1996 filed for Chapter 11 Reorganization in the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court.  The management is devoting the majority of its
time seeking funding for the Company, particularily from those
parties that demonstrated interest in the Company but were
reluctant due to the liabilities and contingent liabilities 
associated with the Company. 

                        PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

          Location:      United States Bankruptcy Court
                         Southern District of Indiana
          Case:          96-70559-BHL-11
          Description:   Chapter 11 Reorganization
          Date:          May 13, 1996

On May 13, 1996 the Company voluntarily filed a petition for
"Reorganization" persuant to Chapter 11 in the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Indiana.  The
filing was due to the liabilities and contingent liabilities
resulting from the acquisition and subsequent disposition of
Green Coal Comapny, Inc. 

The Company has been unable to attract the needed financings to
develop its properties and pursue its business opportunities as a
result of these liabilities.  It is management's belief that
filing for reorganization is in the best interest to protect the
company's assets and to attract investors that can be protected
through the Bankruptcy Court on a priority basis.

On August 16, 1996, the Company received the signed order dated
August 15, 1996 from the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Indiana approving a loan transaction with
Pembrooke Holding Corporation for a post-petition financing to
meet the Companys present working capital needs.  The Company has
entered into an agreement with Pembrooke Holding Corporation
whereby $150,000 will be loaned to the Company for a period of
180 days without interest, secured by a pledge of 50% of the
stock of Calox Corporation ( a wholly owned subsidiary of the
company).
 
Upon the Court's confirmation of the plan of reorganization
Pembrooke shall receive, in satisfaction of its $150,000 loan, a
debenture in the amount of $150,000 which shall be convertible to
stock at a price of 12.5 cents per share.  The Company shall also 
issue warrants for its stock to Pembrooke as a part of a plan of 
reorganization for a total of 2,333,3334 warrants exercisable at
58% of the market price at the time of exercise.  The company
will also receive $130,000 from Pembrooke to acquire a 60%
working interest in each well developed in a certain oil and gas
property. 

At such time that Pembrooke receives oil and gas production
payments equal to its investments in each well, Pembrooke's
working interest shall be reduced to 50%.

On April 11, 1996, the Company received a Letter of Intent from
Tiger Industrial Transportation Systems, Inc. to enter a contract
to mine and market lime and limestone products from the Company's
limestone reserve located in Monroe County, Indiana.  The
transaction is subject to a market survey that is being conducted
at this time.  Pembrooke Holding Corporation is financing an
independent market study and is soliciting customers for the
limestone products.
