                             INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Board of Directors
American Resources of Delaware, Inc.:


We have audited the accompanying statements of revenues and direct operating
expenses of the Arakis Properties purchased by American Resources of Delaware,
Inc. for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 1995.
These statements of revenues and direct operating expenses are the
responsibility of the property owner's management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these statements of revenues and direct operating expenses
based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the statements of revenues and direct
operating expenses are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the statements of revenues and direct operating expenses.  An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the statements
of revenues and direct operating expenses.  We believe that our audits of the
statements of revenues and direct operating expenses provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

The accompanying statements were prepared as described in note 1 for the purpose
of complying with certain rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) for inclusion in certain SEC regulatory reports and filings and
are not intended to be a complete financial presentation.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of revenues and direct operating
expenses present fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and direct
operating expenses of the Arakis Properties purchased by American Resources of
Delaware, Inc. for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31,
1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

            NOTES TO STATEMENTS OF REVENUES AND DIRECT OPERATING EXPENSES


(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

    Basis of Presentation

    The accompanying statements present the revenues and direct operating
    expenses of the working interests in certain oil and gas properties
    purchased by American Resources of Delaware, Inc. (ARI) from AKS Energy
    Corp. during February 1996 for $4.2 million in cash, stock and warrants of
    ARI (the Arakis Properties).  The Arakis Properties are located in the
    state of Kentucky.

    The statements of oil and gas revenues and direct lease operating expenses
    include only the oil and gas revenues and direct lease operating expenses
    attributable to the Arakis Properties.  Oil and gas revenues and direct
    lease operating expenses included herein are not necessarily representative
    of future operations.  Additionally, the financial statements do not
    include depreciation, depletion and amortization, general and
    administrative expenses, interest expense, or federal and state income
    taxes.

    Revenue Recognition

    The entitlements method is used for accounting for gas revenues.

(2) Supplemental Disclosures of Selected Expenditures (Unaudited)

    Total exploration and development costs and general administrative expenses
    for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 are as follows:

                                                             1995       1994

                                                           --------  ---------

    (3)  Supplemental Oil and Gas Reserve Information (Unaudited)

    Total proved and proved developed oil and gas reserves of the Arakis
    Properties at December 31, 1995 have been estimated based on reserve
    estimates prepared by Richard M. Russell & Associates, Inc., as of January
    1, 1996.  No comparable estimates were available for prior periods.
    Therefore, reserves for 1994 and 1995 have been calculated by adjusting the
    January 1, 1996 amounts for prior period producing activities and,
    consequently, no revisions of previous estimates have been reflected.  All
    reserve estimates are based on economic and operating conditions existing
    at January 1, 1996.  The future net cash flows from production of these
    proved reserve quantities were computed by applying current prices of oil
    and gas (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by
    contractual arrangements) as of January 1, 1996 to estimated future
    production of proved oil and gas reserves less the estimated future
    expenditures (based on current costs) as of January 1, 1996, to be incurred
    in developing and producing the proved reserves.  Income taxes were
    calculated without consideration of any remaining historical cost basis of
    the Arakis Properties.  The Arakis Properties are located in the state of
    Kentucky.

                                                                     (Continued)
