Item 9.  Regulation FD Disclosure

Mallon Resources Corporation (the "Company") issued the following press
release, dated November 21, 2000, the text of which follows:

    Denver, Colorado -- Mallon Resources Corporation (Nasdaq:  "MLRC") Mallon
Resources Corporation (Nasdaq:  "MLRC") today reported that it has resumed the
natural gas development drilling program at its East Blanco Field in the San
Juan Basin.  To date, Mallon has drilled 26 of the 34 wells it planned to
drill in 2000, and it expects to complete all of its scheduled drilling by
year-end.

    In addition to the drilling of new development wells, Mallon is focusing
its attention on recompleting existing wells in the northern portion of East
Blanco in order to commingle and produce the gas from multiple formations
within the wells. Most of Mallon's wells in this field contain three to five
pay zones, ranging in depth from 1,200 to 4,000 feet. Prior to recompletion,
the gas from each pay zone in a well is produced separately. Commingling
recompletions permit the gas from multiple zones to be produced up one string
of production tubing. Commingling also allows Mallon to (1) produce its gas
reserves more rapidly, (2) increase its proved producing reserves in the
field, (3) increase the present value of its proved reserves, and (4) reduce
operating costs. During the recompletion process the wells are shut-in, but
Mallon expects to see increased production and more efficient wells once the
work is complete. To date, Mallon has completed the commingling and
recompletion of seven wells, and it expects to complete 16 more by year-end.

Outlook

    Based on its operations to date and its expectations for the balance of
the year, Mallon currently forecasts that its total production during 2000
will be between 6.5 Bcfe and 7 Bcfe. Based on its expectations for its 2001
drilling program, which calls for the drilling of 53 new wells, Mallon expects
its total production during 2001 will be between 10 Bcfe and 13 Bcfe.

   George Mallon, CEO, said, "Our operations are going forward on schedule.
But the most exciting news is that because of our $15.2 million equity
financing in late September, for the first time in over a year we are able to
dedicate some of our drilling dollars to exploration. We are in the process of
permitting five new wells designed to test the Lewis Shale that lies just
below our current productive zones at East Blanco. Three older East Blanco
wells penetrated the Lewis Shale, where they encountered gas shows. We hope to
drill the first of these exploration wells in December 2000."

    The foregoing information contains forward-looking statements and
forecasts, the realization of which cannot be assured. Actual results may
differ significantly from those forecast. Inaccurate geologic and engineering
interpretations, the volatility of commodity prices, unbudgeted cost
increases, unforeseen delays in operations, and operations that prove less
successful than anticipated are risks that can significantly affect Mallon's
operations. These and other risk factors that affect Mallon's business are
discussed in Mallon's Annual Report.
