- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense
and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should
be completed. (Check box if appropriate)
(a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part II of this form

(b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on
Form 10-K, Form 20- F, 11-K or Form N-SAR, or portion thereof will be filed on
or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the
subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q, or portion thereof

Part III - Narrative
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q,
N-SAR or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the
prescribed time period.
Registrant's Chairman, CEO and President is also the President of a
non-affiliated exploration drilling company which occupied an
significant amount of his time and required him to be out of town, due
to a large seasonal increase in business performed by the
non-affiliated company. The Registrant has no other employees who
could perform the tasks needed to supply the Registrant's independent
accountants with the information needed to prepare the financial
section of the Form 10-Q. Registrant is of the opinion that none of
the Form 10-Q should be filed without the subject financial
information. The Form 10-Q will be filed on or before August 18, 1998.
