Such factors are discussed under the headings Item 1.  Description of Business, and Item 6.

History and Organization  Desert Mining, Inc. was originally incorporated on June 6, 1979 as Holidays of America, Inc. pursuant to the Nevada Business Corporation Act.  Its original Articles of Incorporation provided for authorized capital of 2,500 shares of common stock with a $0.25 par value.  Our Company was formed with the stated purpose of conducting any lawful business activity.  However, no business was undertaken until 1988.  In 1988 we raised $11,625 through private sales of its stock, all of which was expended in the evaluation of a joint venture with Controlled Environment Leaching Systems in the development of certain placer mining claims located in Kern County, California.  After review of all reports and subsequent field examinations, it was determined that we did not have the resources to pursue the project and all attempts to engage in business ended in 1990, and we again became dormant.  On November 3, 2000, the shareholders amended the articles of incorporation, changing our name to Desert Mining, Inc., and increasing the authorized capital to 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share.   The shareholders also authorized a 200 to 1 forward split of the outstanding shares.  The amended articles were filed with the State of Nevada on November 28, 2000.  Management then began seeking potential operating businesses and business opportunities with the intent to acquire or merge with such businesses. In June of 2003, there was a change in control of our Company.  Following the change in control, we cancelled 1,594,000 common shares and effected a ten for one forward split of its issued and outstanding stock for shareholders of record as of July 15, 2003.  As a result of the change in control, we moved our operations and business location to 1135 Lincoln Avenue, Suite 1, Loveland, Colorado 80537.  On November 1, 2004 we moved our operations again to 4328 Hwy. 66, Longmont, CO 80504. Our telephone number is (970) 535-6213.  Management is currently focused on expanding its activities in the mining industry and has continued to actively seek oil and gas leases.  Our Business  Desert Mining is in the exploration stage and is engaged in the activity of seeking developmental mineral properties.  In particular Desert is focusing on the oil and gas industry and is actively pursuing oil and gas leases along with joint ventures or acquisitions to complement the intended business operation.  3    In 2005 we drilled the Smith 3-12 located in Campbell County Wyoming. The well was drilled to test the potential of the Spotted Horse prospect and we encountered gas during the drilling process. In the second quarter of 2006, the Company acquired two additional wells in the prospect and began installing gas gathering and water handling facilities. The facilities were completed in July and we achieved our first production on July 31.  From that date through February 28, 2007 we averaged 181 mcf per day in sales.  This is significant because most coal bed methane wells do not produce any gas until there has been an extensive dewatering period.  Our wells are producing without the benefit of any dewatering.  We drilled and completed a water disposal well in the first quarter of 2007 and have just received approval from the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality to start using it.  We expect to begin injecting produced water into the well on a full time basis in April.  As a result of this dewatering, we expect our sales to increase significantly. We have contracted Baker Energy from Sheridan Wyoming to prepare the Plan of Development for an additional 14 wells on our Federal acreage adjacent to our current wells and expect to have the plan ready for submission in the second quarter of 2007. Separately, we have received two approved well permits for our Dripping Rock project and are currently evaluating development alternatives. As a part of our planned operations, Desert is actively seeking to develop joint ventures or acquire businesses with current operations in the oil and gas production areas.  Item 2. Description of Property.  We have 19,799 Federal acres, 11,451 State acres and 1,484 private acres of oil and gas leases.  In addition to our leases, we have minimal office equipment, vehicles and no other assets.  We are obligated to a two year office lease of $2,375 per month which expired September 30, 2006.  The lease also includes two one year extension options and we exercised the first year option.  We have approximately 4,500 square feet of office space and believe this will be sufficient to support our operations.  Item 3. Legal Proceedings.  Our subsidiary, 44 Mag Production, Inc., has been named in Civil Action No. 25781 filed in Campbell County, Wyoming.  44 Mag Production, Inc. was named in the action because it has an overriding royalty interest in the disputed mineral lease.  This suit was settled by the litigants with no impact on 44 Mag Production, Inc.  Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders  None.  PART II  Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters.  Our common stock is listed on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB"), under the symbol "DSRM".  As of March 28, 2007, we had 76 shareholders holding 14,162,647 shares of common stock.  Of the issued and outstanding common stock, 6,962,647 are free trading, the balance are restricted stock as that term is used in Rule 144.  4     CLOSING BIDCLOSING ASK2006HighLowHighLowFirst Quarter1.30.251.85.50Second Quarter.62.251.01.29Third Quarter.70.18.83.20Fourth Quarter.55.20.80.322005HighLowHighLowFirst Quarter1.351.011.501.05Second Quarter1.10.651.30.95Third Quarter1.20.601.35.95Fourth Quarter1.801.052.001.20  The above quotations, as provided by Pink Sheets, LLC, represent prices between dealers and do not include retail markup, markdown or commission.

In June 2005, we sold a lease for a profit which is included in Other Expense for an amount of $109,520.

This resulted in a net loss for the year of $1,126,628.

The Company received $750,000 under a note payable dated October 19, 2004 which is due June 19, 2006 (subsequently extended)  including interest at 6%.  The terms of the note includes warrants to purchase 500,000 common shares of the Company at $1.50 per share, at the option of the note holder, at any time before April 19, 2007 and includes a cashless exercise provision. At December 31, $45,123 interest payable was accrued.  5    The significant increase in expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 are attributed to depreciation and amortization, annual lease rentals and dry hole costs.  Depreciation and amortization increased by 401% while annual lease rentals increased 562% over the prior year.  There were no dry hole costs in prior years.  There was also a 17% increase in administrative costs.

During 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 the Company purchased 32,734 net acres of oil and gas leases consisting of 19,799 acres from the State of Wyoming, 11,451 acres from the BLM and 1,484 net acres from private individuals.  The terms of the BLM leases are for ten years and require yearly payments of $17,177 starting one year after the issuance of the leases. The terms of the State of Wyoming leases are for five years with yearly payments of $19,799 starting one year after the date of issuance of the leases.  The private leases vary from 19 months to 52 months and do not require any annual payments.  The initial payments for the leases are being amortized over the remaining life of the leases.  The required yearly payments are expensed as paid.  During 2004 the Company sold 240 net acres of State leases retaining an overriding royalty of 4.34% and reducing annual payments by $240.

MADSEN & ASSOCIATES, CPAS INC. 684 East Vine Street, Suite 3 Certified Public Accountants and Business Consultants Murray, Utah  84107 Telephone 801-268-2632                    Fax 801-262-3978    Board of Directors Desert Mining, Inc. and Subsidiary Salt Lake City, Utah   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM  We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Desert Mining, Inc. and subsidiary (exploration stage company) at December 31, 2006 and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the period June 6, 1979 (date of inception) to December 31, 2006.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.  We conducted out audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards 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.  An 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 ouropinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Desert Mining, Inc. and subsidiary at December 31, 2006 and the results of operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the period June 6, 1979 to December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company will need additional capital to service its debt and for its planned activity, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Managements plans in regard to these matters are described in the notes to the financial statements.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.    /s/ Madsen & Associates, CPAs Inc.

F-6    DESERT MINING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (Exploration Stage Company) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT December 31, 2006  ___________________________________________________________________________________  1. ORGANIZATION  The Company was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on June 6, 1979 with the name Holidays of America, Inc. with authorized common stock of 2,500 shares at no par value.  On November 28, 2000 the name was changed to Desert Mining, Inc. and the authorized common stock was increased to 100,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.001 in connection with a forward stock split of two hundred shares for each outstanding share.  This report has been prepared showing after stock split shares from inception with a par value of $0.001.  The Company is in the exploration stage and is engaged in the activity of acquiring and exploring oil and gas leases.  2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  Accounting Methods  The Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method of accounting.  Dividend Policy  The Company has not yet adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends.  Income Taxes  The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under the liability method deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial reporting and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect, when the differences are expected to reverse.  An allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded, when it is more likely than not, that such tax benefits will not be realized.  On December 31, 2006, the Company had a net operating loss available for carry forward of $2,006,690. The tax benefit of approximately $602,000 from the loss carry forward has been fully offset by a valuation reserve because the use of the future tax benefit is doubtful since the Company has limited operations.  The net operating loss will expire starting in 2018 through 2027.  Financial and Concentrations Risk  The Company does not have any concentration or related financial credit risks except the Company maintains bank accounts over the insured amount of $100,000. However, they are maintained in banks with high quality.     F-7


DESERT MINING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (Exploration Stage Company) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) December 31, 2006    2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued  Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share  Basic net income (loss) per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average number of shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share amounts are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding as if shares had been issued on the exercise of any common share rights unless the exercise becomes antidilutive and then only the basic per share amounts are shown in the report.  Statement of Cash Flows  For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  Revenue Recognition  The Company is in the business of exploring for, developing, producing and selling crude oil and natural gas.  Crude oil revenue is recognized when the product is taken from the storage tanks on the lease and delivered to the purchaser.  Natural gas revenues are recognized when the product is delivered into a third party pipeline downstream of the lease.  Occasionally the Company may sell specific leases and the gain or loss associated with those transactions will be shown separately from the profit or loss from normal ongoing operations.  Advertising and Market Development  The company expenses advertising and market development costs as incurred.  Estimates and Assumptions  Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses.  Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in preparing these financial statements.  Financial Instruments  The carrying amounts of financial instruments are considered by management to be their estimated fair values due to their short term maturities.     F-8   DESERT MINING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (Exploration Stage Company) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) December 31, 2006    2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued  Principles of Consolidation  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary from its inception.  All significant intercompany accounts and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements  The Company does not expect that the adoption of other recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.  3.  OIL & GAS LEASES  During 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 the Company purchased 32,734 net acres of oil and gas leases consisting of 19,799 acres from the State of Wyoming, 11,451 acres from the BLM and 1,484 net acres from private individuals.  The terms of the BLM leases are for ten years and require yearly payments of $17,177 starting one year after the issuance of the leases. The terms of the State of Wyoming leases are for five years with yearly payments of $19,799 starting one year after the date of issuance of the leases.  The private leases vary from 19 months to 52 months and do not require any annual payments.  The initial payments for the leases are being amortized over the remaining life of the leases.  The required yearly payments are expensed as paid.  During 2004 the Company sold 240 net acres of State leases retaining an overriding royalty of 4.34% and reducing annual payments by $240.  In June 2005, the Company sold 2,103 net BLM acres retaining a 2.5% overriding royalty and reducing annual payments by $3,155.  In March 2006 the Company sold 640 State acres reducing annual payments by $640 and in December 2006 the Company sold an additional 640 State acres retaining a 3.33% overriding royalty and reducing annual payments by $640.  The Company intends to drill for oil and natural gas on their leases.  Drilling costs will be treated as work in progress until such time as the well has been finished and its commercial potential evaluated.  In 2004, the Company drilled the Smith 3-12 located in Campbell County, Wyoming.  This well was drilled to test the potential of the Spotted Horse prospect and encountered gas during the drilling process.  In the second quarter of 2006, the Company acquired two additional wells in this prospect and began installing gas gathering and water handling facilities.  First production from the prospect occurred on July 31, 2006 and the wells have produced continuously since.  Expenditures for well permits and related work on other prospects are included in the work in progress category at year end.  The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting and will capitalize successful wells and related leasehold costs.  These costs will be amortized using the unit of production method.  Dry hole and related leasehold costs will be expensed.

DESERT MINING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (Exploration Stage Company) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) December 31, 2006    6.  DESPOSITS  The Company has placed deposits with the US Department of the Interior  Bureau of Land Management ($10,000) and State of Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission ($75,000).  State and Federal regulations require all oil and gas well operators to have on deposit with the appropriate regulatory agency, an amount sufficient to reclaim any wells the Operator is responsible for.  7.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS  Officers-directors and a Company manager have acquired 16% of the common capital stock issued.  The Company acquired two gas wells from a related party at the predecessor cost by the issuance of 150,000 shares of common stock and cash of $150,000.  GDH Roustabouts, a company owned by Gabriel D. Holt, a Director of the Company, performed general labor and roustabout services on the Spotted Horse project.  8.  CONTINUING LIABILITIES  The Company is obligated under a two year office lease of $2,375 per month which expired September 30, 2006.  The lease also includes two one year extension options and the Company has exercised the first year option.  9.  GOING CONCERN  On the balance sheet date the Company did not have sufficient working capital to service its debt and for its planned activity for the coming year.  Continuation of the Company in its planned activity is dependent upon obtaining additional working capital and the management of the Company has developed a strategy, which it believes will accomplish this objective through seeking additional equity funding, and long term financing, which will enable the Company to be successful in its efforts.
