SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION & OPERATIONS

Quest Minerals & Mining Corp. (“Quest,” the “Registrant,” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Utah on November 21, 1985. The Company has leasehold interests in certain properties in Eastern Kentucky, is seeking to re-commence full coal mining operations on these properties, and is looking to acquire additional coal properties.

Quest’s subsidiary, Gwenco, Inc. (“Gwenco”), leases over 700 acres of coal mines, with approximately 12,999,000 tons of coal in place in six seams. In 2004, Gwenco had reopened Gwenco’s two former drift mines at Pond Creek and Lower Cedar Grove, and had begun production at the Pond Creek seam. This seam of high quality compliance coal is located at Slater’s Branch, South Williamson, Kentucky.

On March 2, 2007, Gwenco filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky. Management felt this was a necessary step to further the Company’s financial restructuring initiative and to protect Gwenco’s assets from claims, debts, judgments, foreclosures, and forfeitures of those creditors and stakeholders with whom both Quest and Gwenco were unable to negotiate restructured agreements. Gwenco is currently overseeing its operations as a debtor in possession, subject to court approval of matters outside the ordinary course of business. On August 3, 2007, the Bankruptcy Court approved Gwenco’s request for debtor-in-possession financing in an amount of up to $2,000,000 from holders of Gwenco’s existing debt obligations in order to fund operating expenses. Gwenco intends to continue its mining operations at Pond Creek mine at Slater’s Branch while this matter is completed. Under Chapter 11, claims against Gwenco in existence prior to the filing of the petitions for reorganization relief under the federal bankruptcy laws are stayed while Gwenco is in bankruptcy.

On September 30, 2009, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”). Secured and non-priority unsecured classes of creditors voted to approve the plan, with over 80% of the unsecured claims in dollar amount voting for the plan, and over 90% of responding lessors supporting it. The Plan became effective on October 12, 2009. Note 16 shows the effects of the above reorganization as though it occurred as of the balance sheet date September 30, 2009.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instruction to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

F-5

QUEST MINERALS AND MINING CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008

(Unaudited)

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Accordingly, the results from operations for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated December 31, 2008 financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Quest Mineral & Mining, Ltd., Quest Energy, Ltd., and Gwenco, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Critical estimates include amortization of intangible assets, depreciation, and the fair value of options and warrants included in the determination of debt discounts and share-based compensation.

Major Customers and Suppliers

The Company had three customers who accounted for 49%, 41% and 10%, respectively of revenues in 2009.

Costs of the Company’s two major vendors, who provided contract mining and trucking services, accounted for 73% and 14%, respectively, of the Company’s production costs for the period ended September 30, 2009.

Dependency on Key Management

The future success or failure of the Company is dependent primarily upon the efforts of the Company’s President, sole director, and controlling stockholder. The Company does not have insurance covering such officer’s liability and term life insurance. The Company entered into a five-year employment contract with the President in 2005.

Mineral Interests

The purchase acquisition costs of mineral properties are deferred until the properties are placed into production, sold, or abandoned. These deferred costs will be amortized on the unit-of-production basis over the estimated useful life of the properties following the commencement of production or written-off if the properties are sold, allowed to lapse, or abandoned.

Mineral property acquisition costs include any cash consideration and the fair market value of common shares and preferred shares, based on the trading price of the shares, or, if no trading price exists, on other indicia of fair market value, issued for mineral property interests, pursuant to the terms of the agreement or based upon an independent appraisal.

Administrative expenditures are expensed in the year incurred.

F-6

QUEST MINERALS AND MINING CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008

(Unaudited)

Since the Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain adequate financing (see Note 3), the carrying value of the mineral rights does not necessarily represent liquidation value if the Company were force to sell the mineral rights in liquidation in a liquidation proceeding under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Coal Acquisition Costs

The costs to obtain coal lease rights are capitalized and amortized primarily by the units-of-production method over the estimated recoverable reserves. Amortization occurs either as the Company mines on the property or as others mine on the property through subleasing transactions.

Rights to leased coal lands are often acquired through royalty payments. As mining occurs on these leases, the accrued royalty is charged to cost of coal sales.

Mining Acquisition Costs

The costs to obtain any interest in third-party mining operations are expensed unless significantly proven reserves can be established for the entity. At that point, capitalization would occur.

Mining Equipment

Mining equipment is recorded at cost. Expenditures that extend the useful lives of existing plant and equipment or increase the productivity of the asset are capitalized. Mining equipment is depreciated principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 3 to 15 years.

Deferred Mine Expense

Costs of developing new mines or significantly expanding the capacity of existing mines are capitalized and amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated recoverable reserves that are associated with the property being benefited.

Asset Impairment

If facts and circumstances suggest that a long-lived asset may be impaired, the carrying value is reviewed under the guidance of ASC 360-10, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” If the review indicates that the value of the asset will not be recoverable, as determined based on projected undiscounted cash flows related to the asset over its remaining life, then the carrying value of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value.

Revenue Recognition

Coal sales revenues are sales to customers of coal produced at the Company’s operations. The Company recognizes revenue from coal sales at the time title passes to the customer.

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company began recording compensation expense associated with stock options and other forms of equity compensation in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10 “Stock Compensation”. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company had accounted for stock options according to the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations, and therefore no related compensation expense was recorded for awards granted with no intrinsic value. The Company adopted the modified prospective transition method provided for ASC 718-10, and, consequently, has not retroactively adjusted results from prior periods.

QUEST MINERALS AND MINING CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008

(Unaudited)

There were 50,000 options issued to the Company’s President during the year ended December 31, 2008. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the 50,000 options were exchanged and cancelled for a new option grant of equal value, which grant shall be consummated upon the Company’s adoption of a new stock incentive plan. As of September 30, 2009, there were 75 options issued and outstanding. See Note 12 for details.

Income Taxes

The Company provides for the tax effects of transactions reported in the consolidated financial statements. The provision, if any, consists of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities, if any, represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. As of September 30, 2009, the Company had no material current tax liability, deferred tax assets, or liabilities to impact on the Company’s financial position because the deferred tax asset related to the Company’s net operating loss carry forward was fully offset by a valuation allowance.

Fair Value

The FASB issued ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements,” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, but does not require any new fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with the exception of all non-financial assets and liabilities, which will be effective for years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted the required provisions of ASC 820-10 that became effective in its first quarter of 2008. The adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In February 2008, the FASB issued ASC 820-10-15, “Effective Date of FASB ASC 820-10.” ASC 820-10-15 delays the effective date of ASC 820-10 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for certain items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). In October 2008, the FASB issued ASC 820-10-35, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active.” ASC 820-10-35 applies to financial assets within the scope of accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements in accordance with ASC 820-10. This ASC clarifies the application of ASC 820-10 in determining the fair values of assets or liabilities in a market that is not active. In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 820-10-65, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.” ASC 820-10-65 does not change the definition of fair value as detailed in ASC 820-10, but provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with ASC 820-10 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. The provisions of ASC 820-10-65 are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. If early adoption is elected for either ASC 320-10 or ASC 825-10 and ASC 270-10, ASC 820-10-65 must also be adopted early.

ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820-10 requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels.

There are three general valuation techniques that may be used to measure fair value, as described below:

Market approach – Uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. Prices may be indicated by pricing guides, sale transactions, market trades, or other sources;

Cost approach – Based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost); and

Income approach – Uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on current market expectations about the future amounts (includes present value techniques and option-pricing models). Net present value is an income approach where a stream of expected cash flows is discounted at an appropriate market interest rate.

Financial assets and liabilities are valued using either level 1 inputs based on unadjusted quoted market prices within active markets or using level 2 inputs based primarily on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active or inactive markets. For certain debt, fair value is based on present value techniques using inputs derived principally or corroborated from market data. Using level 3 inputs using management’s assumptions about the assumptions market participants would utilize in pricing the asset or liability. In the Company’s case, this entailed assumptions used in pricing models for note discounts. Valuation techniques utilized to determine fair value are consistently applied.

The Company’s notes payable are the only items that are subject to ASC 820-10 as of September 30, 2009 as follows:


Notes Payable (level 1)	$	4,592,959
Convertible Notes Payable (level 1)		2,431,190
Convertible Notes Payable (level 3)		171,287

Earnings (loss) per share

The Company adopted ASC 260-10 and the guidance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 98, which provides for the calculation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period; after provisions for cumulative dividends on Series A preferred stock. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings similar to fully diluted earnings per share. The assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and the conversion of convertible securities were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because the assumed exercises and conversions would be anti-dilutive for the periods presented.

Recently Adopted Accounting Principles

In September 2009, the FASB published FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-12, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820)—Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). This update amends Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Overall, to permit a reporting entity to measure the fair value of certain investments on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent). This update also requires new disclosures, by major category of investments about the attributes of investments within the scope of this amendment to the Codification. The guidance in this update is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this update will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2009, FASB Accounting Standards Update 2009-05 included amendments to Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Overall, for the fair value measurement of liabilities and provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update. This update also clarifies that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of a liability and that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2009, the FASB issued ASC 105-10, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” ASC 105-10 established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. ASC 105-10 will supersede all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other nongrandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in ASC 105-10 will become nonauthoritative. Following ASC 105-10, the FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, the FASB will issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve only to: (a) update the Codification; (b) provide background information about the guidance; and (c) provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification. ASC 105-10 and the Codification are effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC 105-10 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The FASB has issued ASC 855-10, “Subsequent Events.” ASC 855-10 established general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Specifically, ASC 855-10 provides (a) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements; (b) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements; and (c) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. ASC 855-10 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. The adoption of this ASC did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The FASB has issued ASC 825-10-65, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” ASC 825-10-65 amends ASC 825-10-50, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instrument, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. ASC 825-10-65 also amends ASC 270-10, Interim Financial Reporting, to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. ASC 825-10-65 is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. ASC 825-10-65 does not require disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. In periods after initial adoption, ASC 825-10-65 requires comparative disclosures only for periods ending after initial adoption. The adoption of this ASC did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The FASB has issued ASC 805-10, “Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies —an amendment of FASB Statement No. 141 (Revised December 2007), Business Combinations.” ASC 805-10 addresses application issues raised by preparers, auditors, and members of the legal profession on initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. ASC 805-10 is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. ASC 805-10 will have an impact on the Company’s accounting for any future acquisitions and its consolidated financial statements.

The FASB has issued ASC 350-10, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets.” ASC 350-10 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under ASC 350-10, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” ASC No. 350-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this ASC did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The FASB has issued ASC 815-10, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133.” ASC 815-10 requires enhanced disclosures regarding derivatives and hedging activities, including: (a) the manner in which an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) the manner in which derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification 815-10, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities;” and (c) the effect of derivative instruments and related hedged items on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. ASC 815-10 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted ASC 815-10 effective January 1, 2009 and the adoption had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

The FASB has issued ASC 810-10-65-1, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). In ASC 810-10-65-1, the FASB established accounting and reporting standards that require non-controlling interests to be reported as a component of equity, changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling interest to be accounted for as equity transactions, and any retained non-controlling equity investment upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary to be initially measured at fair value. ASC 810-10-65-1 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Retroactive application of ASC810-10-65-1 is prohibited. The Company adopted ASC 810-10-65-1 effective January 1, 2009 and the adoption had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

The FASB has issued ASC 808-10, “Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements.” ASC 808-10 prescribes the accounting for parties of a collaborative arrangement to present the results of activities for the party acting as the principal on a gross basis and report any payments received from (made to) other collaborators based on other applicable GAAP or, in the absence of other applicable GAAP, based on analogy to authoritative accounting literature or a reasonable, rational, and consistently applied accounting policy election. Further, ASC 808-10 clarified the determination of whether transactions within a collaborative arrangement are part of a vendor-customer (or analogous) relationship subject to Issue No. 01-9, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer.” ASC 808-10 is effective for collaborative arrangements that exist on January 1, 2009 and application is retrospective. The Company adopted ASC 808-10 effective January 1, 2009 and the adoption had no material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

The FASB issued ASC 815-40-15, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock.” ASC 815-40-15 provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. It also clarifies the impact of foreign currency denominated strike prices and market-based employee stock option valuation instruments on the evaluation. ASC 815-40-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted ASC 815-40-15 effective January 1, 2009, and the adoption had no material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred net operating losses of $2,079,490 and $2,739,993 for the periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and had a working capital deficit (current assets less current liabilities) of $8,435,349 and $8,226,110 at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. These factors indicate that the Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain adequate financing.

The Company will require substantial additional funds to finance its business activities on an ongoing basis and will have a continuing long-term need to obtain additional financing. The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on numerous factors including, but not limited to, continued progress developing additional mines and increasing mine production. Currently, the Company is in the process of seeking additional funding to achieve its operational goals.

On September 30, 2009, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”). The Plan became effective on October 12, 2009. See Note 16 for the terms and effects of the Plan.

Even though the Bankruptcy Court has confirmed the Plan, it is still possible that the Bankruptcy Court could convert Gwenco’s case to Chapter 7 and liquidate all of Gwenco’s assets if the Court determines that Gwenco is unable to perform under the Plan. In the case of a Chapter 7 conversion, the Company would be materially impacted and could lose all of its working assets and have only unpaid liabilities. In particular, the carrying value of the mineral rights (see Note 5) does not necessarily represent liquidation value if the Company were force to sell the mineral rights in liquidation in a liquidation proceeding under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. In addition, the Company might be forced to file for protection under Chapter 11 as it is the primary guarantor on a number of Gwenco’s contracts.

NOTE 4 - LEASEHOLD INTERESTS

Certain former owners of the Company’s indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Gwenco, Inc. (“Gwenco”) commenced an action in the Circuit Court of Pike County against Gwenco for damages resulting from an alleged failure to pay past royalties and other amounts allegedly due. On May 19, 2006, the former owners obtained a default judgment in this action in the amount of $687,391. Foreclosure on the judgment was stayed against Gwenco as a result of Gwenco’s filing of a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. (See Notes 15 and 16.) On June 20, 2007, Gwenco entered into a settlement agreement with one of the former owners (and the holder of the $458,260 judgment), pursuant to which the former owner agreed to accept payment of $150,000 in exchange for a release of the judgment amount of $458,260.

On July 1, 2009, Gwenco entered into a settlement agreement with another former owner (and the holder of the $229,130 judgment), pursuant to which the parties agreed that the former owner would have an allowed unsecured claim of $92,238, plus interest in the amount of $25,000, for a total of $117,238, to be paid along with the other allowed unsecured claims under Gwenco’s Chapter 11 Plan. The former owner has the right to convert up to $40,000 of the claim into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of eighty five percent (85%) of the average of the five (5) per share market values immediately preceding a conversion date, with a minimum conversion price of the par value of the Company’s common stock. On July 21, 2009, the Court approved the settlement agreement. (See Notes 15 and 16.)

On June 30, 2009, Gwenco entered into a settlement agreement with last former owner of Gwenco, pursuant to which the parties agreed that the former owner would have an allowed unsecured claim of $161,824, plus interest in the amount of $40,000, for a total of $201,824, to be paid along with the other allowed unsecured claims under Gwenco’s Chapter 11 Plan. The former owner has the right to convert up to $40,000 of the claim into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of eighty five percent (85%) of the average of the five (5) per share market values immediately preceding a conversion date, with a minimum conversion price of the par value of the Company’s common stock. On July 21, 2009, the Court approved the settlement agreement.

As of September 30, 2009, Gwenco owed approximately $257,526 in lease and/or royalty payments. Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, these accrued amounts are due on or before October 12, 2012.

NOTE 5 - LEASED MINERAL RESERVES

All of the Company’s existing reserves remain in Gwenco, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary. The total reserves are a combination of several coal seams throughout the spectrum of leased properties.

At September 30, 2009, the leased mineral reserves, valued at $5,196,577, net consisted of the following:

	Proven Reserves
Seams	Tons

Winifrede		214,650

Taylor		1,783,500

Cedar Grove		3,702,600

Pond Creek		4,074,598

Total Reserves		9,775,348

The Company maintains a number of coal leases with minimum lease or royalty payments that vary by lease as defined in the separate agreements. Several of the landowners have contended that the Company is in default under certain of these leases and that said leases are terminated. The Company disputes these contentions. Pursuant to ASC 360-10, management has reviewed the recoverable value of the Company’s mineral reserves and has determined that no impairment loss has occurred as of September 30, 2009. As long as the recoverable amount continues to exceed its carrying value, amortization will occur based on a proportionate ratio of depleted reserves as a result of future coal mining activity.

The Company maintains a number of coal leases with minimum lease or royalty payments that vary by lease as defined in the separate agreements. Several of the landowners have contended that the Company is in default under certain of these leases and that said leases are terminated. The Company disputes these contentions. As a result of the confirmation of Gwenco’s Plan, Gwenco has assumed all coal leases and is obligated to pay cure claims due under each lease. Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, these accrued amounts are due on or before October 12, 2012.

On May 19, 2006, the former owners obtained a default judgment in this action in the amount of $687,391. Since the judgment was approximately $500,000 above what the Company believes to have owed, the Company reclassified the difference and recorded additional expense to account for the liability.

In addition, the Company accrued $25,544 as an estimated royalty payable in connection with an August 2008 financing. This amount is currently being amortized over the life of the underlying note involved in the financing. (See Notes 8, 15, and 16).

(b)

During the period ended December 31, 2004, the Company’s bank initiated a claim for an overdraft recovery. Since it was later determined that there was a much larger malice perpetrated against the Company by existing bank employees, estimates for the resolution of a claim against a defunct subsidiary have been accrued until a resolution can be determined.

(c)

The Company recorded an accrued liability for indemnification obligations of $390,000 to its officers, which represents the fair value of shares of the Company’s common stock, which the officers pledged as collateral for personal guarantees of a loan to the Company. The Company defaulted on the loan and the lender foreclosed on the officer’s pledged shares. In January 2007, the Company satisfied $260,000 of this accrued liability by issuing 260,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. See Note 11. The Company has accrued the remaining $130,000 due to its former officer. In addition, during the period ended December 31, 2004, the Company had recorded accrued expenses of $468,585 from its subsidiaries, E-Z Mining Co. and Gwenco, Inc. as acquisition for mining expenses recorded on their books and records. The Company continues to carry these balances until further validity can be determined.

On December 31, 2005, the Company closed E-Z Mining Co., Inc. These current notes consist of various third parties related to the former CFO of the Company. All notes are due on demand except $110,000, which is due from future royalties. All notes are non-interest bearing.

(b)

From February 22, 2005 through April 18, 2005, the Company entered into unit purchase agreements with sixteen third-party investors for a total sale amount of $1,425,000. Each unit was sold at $25,000 and consisted of a 7% senior secured convertible note due March 6, 2006 and 3.75 Series A Warrants. The notes were secured by certain of the Company’s assets and were initially convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the rate of $20,000.00 per share, which conversion price was subject to adjustment. Each Series A Warrant was exercisable into one (1) share of common stock at an exercise price of $200.00 and one (1) Series B Warrant. Each Series B Warrant was exercisable into one (1) share of common stock at an exercise price of $40,000.00. The Company categorized the convertible notes as a liability in the amount of $1,425,000. During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company amended and restated the 7% convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,250,000, which became due on dates ranging from February 22, 2007 to April 18, 2007. As part of the amendments and restatements, one of the note holders forgave a 7% senior secured convertible note in the principal amount of $125,000. The amended and restated notes are convertible at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $3,000.00 per share; provided, that if the market price of the Company’s common stock was less than $4,000.00 per share for ten consecutive trading days, the conversion price would reduced to $2,000.00 per share; provided, further, that if the market price of the Company’s common stock was less than $2,000.00 per share for ten consecutive trading days, the conversion price would become the lesser of (i) $2,000.00 per share or (ii) 70% of the average of the 5 closing bid prices of the common stock immediately preceding such conversion date. The lenders have made periodic partial conversions to pay down the remaining principal on the notes.

Quest had recognized derivative liability of $1,580,575 upon restatement of these notes in accordance with ASC 815-10 and ASC 815-40. In particular, Quest compared (a) the number of then authorized but unissued shares, less the maximum number of shares that could be required to be delivered during the contract period under existing commitments (i.e. the other convertible notes and warrants) with (b) the maximum number of shares that could be required to be delivered under share settlement (either net-share or physical) of these notes. Since the amount in (b) exceeded the amount in (a), and because Quest was required to obtain shareholder approval to increase its authorized common shares or otherwise effect a recapitalization in order to net-share or physically settle all contracts, Quest determined that share settlement was not within its control, and accordingly, derivative liability classification was required.

On February 9, 2007, Quest amended its articles of incorporation to increase its authorized common stock to 975,000,000 shares, and to authorize its board of directors to effectuate a stock split or reverse stock split without stockholder approval. As a result of this amendment, Quest no was no longer required to obtain shareholder approval to effect a recapitalization in order to net-share or physically settle any of its convertible notes or warrants, and accordingly, obtained full control of share settlement of these notes. As a result, Quest reclassified the conversion options on these notes, then valued at $322,963, as permanent equity.

In accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversions and Other Options, the Company also recognized an imbedded beneficial conversion feature present in these notes. The Company allocated a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid in capital. The Company recognized and measured $1,183,139 of the proceeds, which is equal to the intrinsic value of the imbedded beneficial conversion feature, to additional paid in capital and a discount against the notes. The debt discount attributed to the beneficial conversion feature was amortized over the notes’ maturity period as interest expense.

On September 3, 2008, Quest issued 5,000 shares of common stock to a noteholder that did not participate in the 2006 exchange in exchange of an original note of $25,000 and warrants for 3.75 shares of common stock. Quest credited the principal amount of $25,000 and accrued interest of $6,217 to paid-in capital and also incurred $2,611 as an induced conversion expense in connection with this exchange.

As of September 30, 2009, $25,000 in principal amount of the original $1,425,000 in notes remains outstanding and in default.

(c)

On May 16, 2005, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a third party lender in which $245,000 was issued as a 10% note due August 19, 2005. According to the credit agreement, the lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make additional loans to the Company of $255,000 for an aggregate total of $500,000. Additionally, the lender was issued 257 warrants. The loans subject to the credit agreement are secured by certain assets of the Company. The warrants had an exercise price of $4,000.00 per share, subject to adjustment, and expired on May 31, 2007. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had made a payment of $5,500. On February 14, 2006, in connection with a settlement agreement with the lender, the Company made a payment of $264,000 and issued an amended and restated 10% note in the amount of $100,000. The note covered accrued interest and additional legal fees. The amended and restated note is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a rate of $40.00 per share and was due February 22, 2007. On June 6, 2007, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with the lender, under which the holder exchanged the $100,000 note and all remaining warrants held by such lender for a new convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000. The new note became due on June 6, 2008, with an annual interest rate of seven percent (7%), and is convertible into Quest’s common shares at a conversion price of 70% of the average of the 5 closing bid prices of the common stock immediately preceding such conversion date. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the holder made a final conversion to satisfy the remaining principal and interest on the note.

In accordance with ASC 470-20, the Company recognized an imbedded beneficial conversion feature present in this note.

During January of 2006, the Company entered into a loan agreement to receive up to $300,000 in funds for operations in return for a 12% percent note due in May of 2006. As additional collateral, the officers of the Company guaranteed the loan and pledged their own shares of common stock. As of the three months ended March 31, 2006, the lender has made advances totaling $132,000. On April 3, 2006, the lender declared a default under the terms of the loan agreement. The Company failed to repay the lender as required under the loan agreement. The lender then enforced guarantees made by the officers of the Company and foreclosed on shares of the officer’s common stock pledged to the lender to secure the guarantee. Along with accrued interest, the Company recorded a capital contribution from its officers of $390,000. The Company has indemnified one officer and is currently negotiating the terms of indemnification of the other officer as a result of this foreclosure. Since 2006 through June 30, 2009, the lender, and its successor in interest, has continued to advance operational funding into the Company. Since there had been no formal agreement regarding the balance owed, the Company accrues a 5% annual interest on the principal with the intent that a mutual arrangement will be resolved between both parties.

On May 1, 2007, the Company entered into a settlement and release agreement with a third party pursuant to which the Company issued a convertible secured promissory note in the principal amount of $10,000. The note was due on May 1, 2008, with an annual interest rate of ten percent (10%). The note is convertible into the Company’s common shares at a fixed rate of $160 per share. The holder may not convert any outstanding principal amount of this note or accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the extent such conversion would result in the holder beneficially owning in excess of 4.999% of the then issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.

In accordance with ASC 470-20, the Company also recognized an imbedded beneficial conversion feature present in this note. The Company allocated a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid in capital. The Company recognized and measured $2,500 of the proceeds, which is equal to the intrinsic value of the imbedded beneficial conversion feature, to additional paid in capital and a discount against the note. The debt discount attributed to the beneficial conversion feature is amortized over the note’s maturity period as interest expense.

On December 8, 2005, the Company issued a convertible secured promissory note in the principal amount of $335,000. The note was due on December 8, 2006, with an annual interest rate of eight percent (8%), and is convertible into the Company’s common shares at an initial conversion price of $20.00 per share, subject to adjustment. As of December 31, 2006, the Company was in default. In January, 2007, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with the note holder and holders of 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, under which the holders exchanged the note and the 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for a series of new convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $635,000. The new notes were due on March 31, 2007, with an annual interest rate of eight percent (8%), and are convertible into the Company’s common shares at an initial conversion price of the greater of (i) $2.00 per share or (ii) 50% of the average of the 5 closing bid prices of the common stock immediately preceding such conversion date. During the first quarter of 2007, the note holders made partial conversions of the principal and accruing interest.

Quest had recognized derivative liability of $306,284 upon exchange of these notes in accordance with ASC 815-10 and ASC 815-40. In particular, Quest compared (a) the number of then authorized but unissued shares, less the maximum number of shares that could be required to be delivered during the contract period under existing commitments (i.e. the other convertible notes and warrants) with (b) the maximum number of shares that could be required to be delivered under share settlement (either net-share or physical) of these notes. Since the amount in (b) exceeded the amount in (a), and because Quest was required to obtain shareholder approval to increase its authorized common shares or otherwise effect a recapitalization in order to net-share or physically settle all contracts, Quest determined that share settlement was not within its control, and accordingly, derivative liability classification was required.

The note is convertible into the Company’s common shares at an initial conversion price equal to the greater of (a) $2.00 per share, and (b) 50% of the average market price during the three trading days immediately preceding any conversion date. The holder may not convert any outstanding principal amount of this note or accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the extent such conversion would result in the holder beneficially owning in excess of 4.999% of the then issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.

Quest had recognized derivative liability of $625,319 upon issuance of the note in accordance with ASC 815-10 and ASC 815-40.

On February 9, 2007, Quest amended its articles of incorporation to increase its authorized common stock to 975,000,000 shares, and to authorize its board of directors to effectuate a stock split or reverse stock split without stockholder approval.

On April 28, 2004, in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Gwenco, Inc., the Company assumed a promissory note, which was in default. The note was secured by certain assets of Gwenco. The former stockholder of Gwenco has personally guaranteed most of the above loans. On May 20, 2005, the lender, Duke Energy, was awarded a judgment of $670,964 plus legal fees of $56,000, which accrues interest at the rate of twelve percent. Duke Energy has obtained a judgment lien against the Company and its assets. (See Note 15.) As of September 30, 2009, the balance remains outstanding. On or about August 20, 2008, Duke Energy sold its right, title, and interest in and to the various judgments, judgment liens, and security interests, all of which are based on the note issued to Duke Energy of Kentucky, also referenced in Note 15, to a third party investor. This claim is classified as a Class 1 Claim in Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization and will be satisfied pursuant to the terms of the Plan. (See Note 16).

(q)

Certain former owners of Gwenco commenced an action in the Circuit Court of Pike County against Gwenco for damages resulting from an alleged failure to pay past royalties and other amounts allegedly due. On May 19, 2006, the former owners improperly obtained a default judgment in this action in the amount of $687,391. Foreclosure on the judgment was stayed against Gwenco as a result of Gwenco’s filing of a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. (See Note 16.) On June 20, 2007, Gwenco entered into a settlement agreement with one of the former owners (and the holder of the $458,260 judgment), pursuant to which the former owner agreed to accept payment of $150,000 in exchange for a release of the judgment amount of $458,260.

On August 15, 2007, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court approved a DIP Financing Motion authorizing the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Gwenco, Inc., which is currently in Chapter 11 reorganization proceedings, to borrow up to $2,000,000 (“Total Facility”) in post-petition debt from a pre-petition creditor pursuant to a Debtor-In-Possession loan agreement and promissory note between Gwenco and the lender dated June 29, 2007. Additionally, the Court approved prior budgeted advances from July of up to $350,000, which, in turn, adjusted the Total Facility to $1,700,000. The loan advances carry a 17% interest rate per annum and matured on July 31, 2008. As of September 30, 2009, advances totaled $1,710,374 and continue to accrue interest.

On July 11, 2009, Gwenco and the lender under the Total Facility extended the maturity date on the Total Facility to the earliest of (i) December 31, 2010, (ii) the date of confirmation of a plan of reorganization or liquidation in the Bankruptcy Case; (iii) the date of closing of a sale of all or substantially all of Gwenco’s assets pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code; or (iv) the approval of a disclosure statement in respect of a plan of reorganization or liquidation not supported by the lender.

Under Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization, the Court approved an exit facility under which Interstellar Holdings LLC will provide up to $2 million in financing to Gwenco. Gwenco intends to pay off the Total Facility with borrowings from the exit facility. The exit facility consists of a 5 year secured convertible line of credit note, which note is convertible into common stock of the Company at a rate of the lower of (i) $0.001 per share and (ii) 40% of the average of the three lowest per shares market values of the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days before a conversion; provided that the holder shall be prohibited from converting if such conversion would result in it holding more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

(t)

The Company has guaranteed payment on a note in the amount of $300,000 made to a former stockholder of Gwenco by another former stockholder of Gwenco. This note is secured by 50% of the outstanding capital stock of Gwenco. The debt required 4 annual payments of approximately $75,000 plus interest. As of December 31, 2005, the Company was in default. Additionally, a 3.7% annual rate note in the amount of $495,000 due in December 2007 was agreed upon in consideration for royalties to be paid out on a schedule based on the level of production from the mine. Since the initial agreement was made effective in March of 2004, the Company has accrued two years of interest expense and has adjusted its paid in capital to reflect the future correction on the issuance of preferred stock associated with the original acquisition of Gwenco, Inc. On August 24, 2006, the Company amended the original note of $300,000 to $180,884, which included the remaining principal and interest, has an interest rate of 5.21%, and is due on September 24, 2009. The Company also amended the $495,000 note due on December 10, 2007 to $545,473, which included the accrued interest, has an interest rate of 5.26%, and is to be paid through monthly payments equal to the sum of $.50 per clean sellable ton of coal removed from the property. As of September 30, 2009, $593,703 of the notes remains outstanding and in default.

These claims are classified as Class 3 Claims in Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization and will be satisfied pursuant to the terms of the Plan. (See Note 16). The former stockholder also has the has the right to convert up to $15,000 of the claim each month into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of eighty five percent (85%) of the average of the five (5) per share market values immediately preceding a conversion date, with a minimum conversion price of the par value of the Company’s common stock.

NOTE 9 -

INCOME TAXES

The Company recognized no income tax benefit for the loss generated for the periods through September 30, 2009.

ASC 740-10 requires that a valuation allowance be provided if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company’s ability to realize the benefit of its deferred tax asset will depend on the generation of future taxable income. Because the Company has yet to recognize significant revenue from the sale of its products, it believes that the full valuation allowance should be provided.

The Company has not filed corporate federal, state, or local income tax returns since 2002, and believes that, due to its operating losses, it does not have a material tax liability.

On January 12, 2007, the Company entered into an indemnity agreement with the Company’s President, who is also the Company’s Secretary and sole director. Under the indemnity agreement, the Company issued 260,000 shares of its Series C Preferred Stock to the President to indemnify him for a loss he incurred when he delivered a personal guarantee in connection with a loan agreement. Under the loan agreement, the President personally guaranteed repayment of the loan and pledged 2,000,000 shares of common stock held by him as collateral for the amounts loaned under the loan agreement. The Company eventually defaulted under the loan agreement, and the lender foreclosed on the shares which the President had pledged. On the date of foreclosure, the President’s shares had a market value of approximately $260,000. The board of directors has determined that the President delivered the guarantee and pledged the shares in the course and scope of his employment, as an officer and director, and for benefit of the Company.

On December 21, 2004, the Company issued 5 common stock warrants at $60,000.00 as finder’s fee. The warrants have anti-dilution privileges and piggyback registration rights.

(c)

On March 4, 2005, the Company signed a series of unit purchase agreements with thirteen individual third-party lenders for a total sale amount of $375,000. Each unit was sold at $25,000 and consisted of a 7% senior secured convertible note due March 6, 2006 and 3.75 Series A Warrants. The notes are secured by certain of the Company’s assets and were initially convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the rate of $20,000.00 per share, which conversion price is subject to adjustment. Each Series A Warrant is exercisable into one (1) share of common stock at an exercise price of $20,000.00 and one (1) Series B Warrant. Each Series B Warrant is exercisable into one (1) share of common stock at an exercise price of $40,000.00. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, 3.75 Series A and Series B warrants were exercised on a cashless basis pursuant to the agreements. On September 3, 2008, in connection with an exchange agreement involving related convertible debt, 7.5 Series A and Series B warrants were cancelled.

(d)

On April 5, 2006, the Company issued an aggregate of 1.25 units at a price of $100,000 per unit. The aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of the units were $125,000. Each unit consists of a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $100,000 and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $8,400 per share. The unit notes are due on July 5, 2007. The notes bear interest at a rate of six percent (6%) and are convertible into Quest common shares at an initial conversion price of $4,200 per share, subject to adjustment, including a “weighted-average” reduction of the conversion price in the event that the Company issued additional stock or stock equivalents at a price lower than the conversion price. Commencing on the fifth month of the notes, the Company must make amortizing payments of the outstanding principal amount and interest on each note until the principal amount and interest have been paid in full, either in cash of 102% of the monthly amount due or by conversion of such amount into our common shares at a conversion rate of seventy-five percent of the volume weighted average price of our common shares for the five trading days prior to a conversion date, subject to certain limitations. Based on the calculation terms of the agreement, a total of 2,968 warrants were issued. On April 1, 2008, the company entered into an agreement with one of the remaining lenders where one unit consisting of a $100,000 promissory note and 23 warrants was exchanged for a 7% convertible note due March 31, 2009. The existing warrants were subsequently cancelled upon issuance of this agreement.

(e)

On May 18, 2006, the Company granted non-qualified options to honor employment agreements previously entered into with each of its President and Vice President. Each agreement called for the President and Vice President to receive options to purchase up to 12.5 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to a new stock compensation plan adopted by the Company. The options would be exercisable at $2,000.00 per share, the fair market value at the time of grant, and would vest as follows: (i) options to purchase up to 50 shares vesting immediately, (ii) options to purchase up to 50 shares vesting upon the Company’s receipt of an aggregate of $25,000 in cash or cash equivalents in its accounts, and (iii) options to purchase up to 25 shares vesting six months after the date of the option agreements. The 12.5 options were valued at $476,846 using the Black Scholes method, of which $286,108 was deferred against Paid-in capital. Since 50 of these options would vest six months from issuance and 75 would vest upon a stipulated performance, the Company has accrued a deferred stock compensation allowance against the issued capitalization. On May 31, 2006, the Company’s then-President resigned. The Company and the former President then entered into a consulting agreement, under which it was agreed that 50 options initially awarded to him would remain vested and 2,500 options would be allowed to vest in six months. 50 options that vested upon the Company’s raising one million dollars were mutually voided. The Company credited both the deferred stock compensation and the accrued paid-in capital by $95,369, which reversed the valued portion of the issuance. On November 18, 2006, the 50 options vested pursuant to the agreements. The Company adjusted the deferred stock compensation and expensed $95,369 for compensation. On January 2, 2007, the current President (former Vice President) and the Company mutually agreed to cancel his stock option agreement.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company has guaranteed payment on a note in the amount of $300,000 made to a former stockholder of Gwenco by another former stockholder of Gwenco. This note is secured by 50% of the outstanding capital stock of Gwenco. The debt required 4 annual payments of approximately $75,000 plus interest. As of December 31, 2005, the Company was in default. Additionally, a 3.7% annual rate note in the amount of $495,000 due in December 2007 was agreed upon in consideration for royalties to be paid out on a schedule based on the level of production from the mine. Since the initial agreement was made effective in March of 2004, the Company has accrued two years of interest expense and has adjusted its paid in capital to reflect the future correction on the issuance of preferred stock associated with the original acquisition of Gwenco. On August 24, 2006, the Company amended the original note of $300,000 to $180,884, which included the remaining principal and interest, which has an interest rate of 5.21% and is due on September 24, 2009. The Company also amended the $495,000 note due on December 10, 2007 to $545,473, which also included the accrued interest, having an interest rate of 5.26% to be paid through monthly payments equal to the sum of $.50 per clean sellable ton of coal removed from the property. The interest expense for the two notes amounted to $7,545 and $21,918, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. These claims are classified as Class 3 Claims in Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization and will be satisfied pursuant to the terms of the Plan. (See Note 8(t)). The former stockholder also has the has the right to convert up to $15,000 of the claim each month into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of eighty five percent (85%) of the average of the five (5) per share market values immediately preceding a conversion date, with a minimum conversion price of the par value of the Company’s common stock.

On January 12, 2007, the Company entered into an indemnity agreement with the Company’s President, who is also the Company’s Secretary and sole director. Under the indemnity agreement, the Company issued 260,000 shares of its Series C Preferred Stock to the President to indemnify him for the loss he incurred as a result of the foreclosure by the lender on the shares, which the President had pledged. On the date of foreclosure, the President’s shares had a market value of approximately $260,000. The board of directors has determined that the President delivered the guarantee and pledged the shares in the course and scope of his employment, as an officer and director, and for benefit of the Company. The board of directors has further determined that the President’s conduct was in good faith and that he reasonably believed that his conduct was in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company. The Company recorded a beneficial conversion expense of $292,500 as a result of the issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock. The issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock to the President effectively transferred control of the company to the President. The Company is currently negotiating the terms of indemnification of with the other former officer as a result of this foreclosure.

The agreement also contains the following material provisions: (i) participation in the Company's executive bonus plan on the same basis as other senior executive officers of the Company; (ii) reimbursement for all reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with his employment; (iii) four (4) weeks paid vacation leave, which shall accumulate in the event that the President elects not to take such vacation leave in any fiscal year; (iv) medical and dental benefits as those provided to other senior executive officers of the Company; (v) a severance payment of six (6) month’s salary at the then-applicable base salary rate in the event that the Company terminates the President's employment without cause; (vi) a severance payment of all base salary due under the remaining term of the employment agreement in the event that the President’s employment is terminated due to death or disability; (vii) a payment of 5,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock in the event of a change in control of the Company as such term is defined in the employment agreement; (viii) a severance payment, at the President's election, in the event that (a) the President is required to relocate as a condition of employment, (b) there is a substantial change in the President's responsibilities at the direction of the Company's board of directors, or (c) a change in control of the Company.

The Company is subject to certain asserted and unasserted claims encountered in a fraud action committed by former employees of the Company against a local bank. It is the Company’s belief that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations, however, the Company cannot provide assurance that damages that result in a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations will not be imposed in these matters.

On or about December 21, 2004, the Company terminated its Chief Financial Officer for cause, as it had reason to believe he had participated in a bank fraud scheme. The Chief Financial Officer’s replacement has not been appointed at this time.

During the period ended December 31, 2004, the Company’s bank initiated a claim for an overdraft recovery. Since it was later determined that there was a much larger malice perpetrated against the Company by existing bank employees, allowances have been accrued until a resolution can be determined. The bank’s insurer commenced an action in Pike County Court, Kentucky against Quest Energy, the Company’s subsidiary, for subrogation of monies it has paid to the bank and repayment of deductibles by the bank as a part of an alleged criminal scheme and conspiracy by former employees of the bank and other individuals. The insurer alleged that former employees or associates of Quest Energy, including the Company’s former CEO and CFO, were primarily involved in the alleged scheme, that Quest Energy is accordingly responsible for the actions of these former employees and associates, and that Quest Energy obtained a substantial material benefit as a result of this alleged scheme. Quest Energy has denied these allegations, that it had any involvement with or responsibility for any of the actions alleged by the insurer, and it further denies that it has benefited from any such alleged scheme. Further, Quest Energy filed a counterclaim against the bank and the insurer contending that the negligent actions and inactions by the bank caused severe damage and loss to Quest Energy and the Company.

Since management has determined that the existing liabilities and debt from the Company were all related to the issues involving these claims, the assets have been written down in consideration for the allowance already accrued by the Company. The Company has accrued the existing liabilities until validity can be determined. As of September 30, 2009, no outcome has been determined.

In light of these occurrences and due in part to the apparent participation of its former Chief Financial Officer in this scheme, the Company determined that the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) have not been effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to them to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company is currently reviewing and revising its controls and procedures to increase the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures.

In or about May 2004, National City Bank of Kentucky commenced an action in Boyd County Court, Kentucky against the Company’s indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Gwenco, Inc., and a former director of the Company for breach of various promissory notes issued by Gwenco. Duke Energy Merchants and First Sentry Bank were joined in the action. National City Bank and Duke Energy obtained judgment in that action in the amounts of approximately $340,000 and $670,000, respectively, and have obtained judgment liens based thereon.

On July 19, 2006, National City Bank of Kentucky sold its right, title, and interest in and to various judgments, judgment liens, security interests, and lines of credit, all of which are based on the Gwenco notes issued to National City Bank of Kentucky, to a third party investor. The judgment has since been satisfied.

On or about August 20, 2008, Duke Energy sold its right, title, and interest in and to the various judgments, judgment liens, and security interests, all of which are based on the note issued to Duke Energy of Kentucky, also referenced in Note 15, to a third party investor. This claim is classified as a Class 1 Claim in Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization and will be satisfied pursuant to the terms of the Plan. (See Note 16).

The Company has not filed corporate federal, and state and local income tax returns since 2002, and believes that, due to its operating losses, it does not have a material tax liability and the penalties owed are minimal. The failure to file income tax returns may invoke penalties for failure to file from the taxing authorities but these penalties are small in amounts and the company had large losses in every one of the filing periods.

On July 10, 2006, the Company entered into a settlement arrangement with an existing equipment lessor for the bill of sale on two pieces of equipment, of which the Company had retained possession while in default of prior lease payments. On October 10, 2006, the Pike County Circuit court entered an order enforcing this settlement agreement, and on December 19, 2006, the lessor was awarded summary judgment in the amount of $35,000 plus 8% accrued interest from August 9, 2006. As of September 30, 2009, the Company remains in default.

Certain former owners of the Company’s indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Gwenco, Inc. (“Gwenco”) commenced an action in the Circuit Court of Pike County against Gwenco for damages resulting from an alleged failure to pay past royalties and other amounts allegedly due. On May 19, 2006, the former owners obtained a default judgment in this action in the amount of $687,391. Foreclosure on the judgment was stayed against Gwenco as a result of Gwenco’s filing of a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. (See Note 16). On June 20, 2007, Gwenco entered into a settlement agreement with one of the former owners (and the holder of the $458,260 judgment), pursuant to which the former owner agreed to accept payment of $150,000 in exchange for a release of the judgment amount of $458,260.

In the fourth quarter of 2008, a former attorney for the Company commenced an action alleging breach of contract for unpaid legal fees. The Company has denied the allegations and is actively defending the matter. Furthermore, the Company has filed a counterclaim against the attorney alleging legal malpractice in connection with the attorney’s representation of the Company in several matters. The matter is currently pending.

In October 2008, the Company received a Wells notice (the “Notice”) from the staff of the Salt Lake Regional Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) stating that they are recommending an enforcement action be filed against the Company based on the Company’s financial statements and other information contained in reports filed with the Commission for the period 2004 and thereafter. The Notice states that the Commission anticipates alleging that we have violated Sections 10(b), 13(a) and 13(b)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1 and 13a-13 thereunder. The Company contends that the Company did not commit any wrongdoings or the violations referred to in the Notice. The Company cannot predict whether the Commission will follow the recommendations of the staff and file suit against the Company. If any enforcement proceeding is instituted by the Commission, and intends to vigorously defend itself against the Commission’s claims.

The Company believes that it may incur significant costs and expenses in connection with this investigation. There can be no assurance that litigation asserting such claims will not be initiated, or that the Company would prevail in any such litigation.

The Company is unable to predict the extent of its ultimate liability with respect to any and all future securities, bankruptcy, or other litigation matters. The costs and other effects of any future litigation, bankruptcy proceedings, government investigations, legal and administrative cases and proceedings, settlements, judgments and investigations, claims and changes in these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and operating results.

The Company is subject to other legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of its business. Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may occur, the Company believes that the final disposition of such matters should not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

NOTE 16 -

PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

On March 2, 2007, Gwenco filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky. On September 30, 2009, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”). The Plan became effective on October 12, 2009.

There were 5 classes of Claims under the Plan: (i) Class 1—The Interstellar Duke claim, in the aggregate amount of $1,091,121; (ii) Class 2—Priority Claims, in aggregate amount of $391,558; (iii) Class 3—General Unsecured Claims, in the aggregate amount of $1,415,661; (iv) Class 4-Subordinated Claims, consisting of claims of affiliates of the debtor totaling $3,453,996; and (v) Class 5—Equity Holder Interest in the amount of $202,954.

The Class 1 Claim will be satisfied by the issuance to Interstellar Holdings, LLC of a 5 year secured convertible promissory note, which note is convertible into common stock of the Company at a rate of the lower of (i) $0.001 per share and (ii) 40% of the average of the three lowest per shares market values of the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days before a conversion; provided that the holder shall be prohibited from converting if such conversion would result in it holding more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

The Class 2 Claims were due and payable as of the effective date of the Plan.

The Class 3 Claims will be satisfied by cash payments equal to the value of their claim on the earlier of (i) the 60th month after the effective date of the Plan or (ii) the date on which, in Gwenco’s sole discretion, proceeds from the exit facility are sufficient to satisfy the claims. Further, Class 3 Claimholders shall receive their pro-rata share of royalty payments to reduce their claims beginning in the month following the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain creditors in this Class negotiated settlements as more specifically set forth in the Plan.

The Class 4 Claims will be paid after holders of all allowed claims in other classes have been paid in full. The Class 5 Claims were deemed unimpaired.

Gwenco, as a reorganized debtor, will operate its coal mining business and will use current and future income from operations to meet current and future expenses and to make payments called for under the Plan. In addition, the Court approved an exit facility under which Interstellar Holdings LLC will provide up to $2 million in financing to Gwenco. The exit facility consists of a 5 year secured convertible line of credit note, which note is convertible into common stock of the Company at a rate of the lower of (i) $0.001 per share and (ii) 40% of the average of the three lowest per shares market values of the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days before a conversion; provided that the holder shall be prohibited from converting if such conversion would result in it holding more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

As of September 30, 2009, Gwenco had assets of $5,693,624, which included all of the mineral rights of the Company valued at $5,196,577 and liabilities (other than liabilities that have been guaranteed by the Company or another of its wholly-owned subsidiaries) of $7,911,522. Of these liabilities, $3,453,996 was owed to Quest Minerals & Mining and Quest Energy, Ltd. These receivables are unsecured and Quest Minerals & Mining and Quest Energy, Ltd have reserved 100% of the receivable as doubtful at September 30, 2009. Gwenco also currently holds all of the company’s current receivables, which are restricted to specific limitations, since the company now acts as a Debtor-In Possession (DIP) as per the Chapter 11 requirements.

The Company accounted for the reorganization in accordance with ASC 852 “Reorganization,” formerly American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Statement of Position 90-7, Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code (“SOP 90-7”). In accordance with ASC 852, entities whose plans have been confirmed by the court and have thereby emerged from Chapter 11 should apply the reporting principles required by the standard as of the confirmation date or as of a later date when all material conditions precedent to the plan’s becoming binding are resolved. Hence, the Company did not recognize the effect of the reorganizaton as of September 30, 2009 since the confirmation date of the Plan is subsequent to September 30, 2009. However, ASC 852 requires certain disclosures that give effect to the confirmed Plan of Reorganization.

(a)

Prior to the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization, the Company itemized accrued interest. Since most of the interest bearing claim amounts were frozen and reclassed into long term payout plans, the various accruals totaling $850,515 were recatagorized with their corresponding long term classifications. The company also recatagorized accrued uncured royalty claims of $202,954 (less net present value adjustment) that were reclassified with a 3 year payout plan. Furthermore, a $30,000 class 2 claim resulting from the confirmed plan was accrued under current liabilities. The existing long term debts were restructured with a conversion option allowing them to convert a maximum of $40,000 of their remaining claims into the parent company's underlying common stock at an 85% discount to market. A beneficial discount of $4,696 was accrued against the face-value of the notes and posted to Paid-in Capital. It will be amortized as interest expense over the life of the notes.

(b)

Pursuant to the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization, the Company's bank loans were restructured with a 5 year payout plan; which are to be paid through a pro-rata basis of $2.50 per clean ton of coal sold by the company. The present value amount of these Class 3 unsecured loans totaling $147,488 were recatagorized under long term debt.

(c)

Pursuant to the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization, the Company's related party loans were restructured with a 5 year payout plan and are to be paid through a pro-rata basis of $2.50 per clean ton of coal sold by the Company. The present value amount of these Class 3 unsecured loans totaling $128,809 were recatagorized under long term debt. In addition, these claims were given a conversion option, which allows the holder to convert a portion of the debt each month into the parent company's underlying common stock at an 85% discount to market. A Beneficial discount of $84,961 was accrued against the face value of the restructured debt and posted to Paid-in Capital. It will be amortized as interest expense over the life of the note.

(d)

Pursuant to the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization, the Company's DIP financing was recatagorized as a Class 1 secured claim with a 5 year payout plan pursuant to the terms of the Exit Facility, which will allow the creditor to convert the parent company's underlying common stock at a lower of 40% discount to market or par ($.001) price. A beneficial conversion discount of $1,984,397 was accrued against the face value of the restructured debt and posted to Paid-in Capital. It will be amortized as interest expense over the life of the note.

(e)

Pursuant to the conversion features awarded to the various Class 3 unsecured claims, as well as the Class 1 secured claims, the Company accrued additional face-value note beneficial conversion discounts of $3,160,479 that were posted against Paid-in Capital and will be amortized as interest expense over the life of the notes.

(f)

As a result of the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization, most of the Company's debt was restructured with long term payout plans of 3 to 5 years. Based on an assumed 12% cost of capital and the resulting present values of the restructured debt obligations, the Company posted a gain on debt settlements for the difference between the carrying value of the liabilities and the present value of the amounts to be paid in accordance with the Plan.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In accordance with FASB ASC 855, “Subsequent Events,” the Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date of filing, November 23, 2009.

On September 30, 2009, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky confirmed the Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) for the Company’s subsidiary, Gwenco, Inc. The Plan became effective on October 12, 2009. Note 16 shows the effects of the Plan as though it became effective as of September 30, 2009.

On October 14, 2009, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with an investor, pursuant to which the investor exchanged $125,000 of evidences of indebtedness, for a new convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $125,000. The new note is due October 14, 2014 and bears interest at an annual interest rate of six percent (6%). The new note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per share.

On October 23, 2009, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with an unrelated third party where the Company issued a $50,000 convertible promissory note. The note is due October 23, 2011 and bears interest at an annual interest rate of eight percent (8%). The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of forty five percent (45%) of the average of the five (5) lowest per share market value during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding a conversion date.

NOTE 18 -

RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company’s previously issued financial statements have been restated as a result of an internal review of its previously issued financial statements, which review was prompted by the Company’s receipt of a Wells Notice from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. After review of the inquiry and investigation and further analysis, the Company determined that it had made several errors in the application of generally accepted accounting principles relating to its accounting treatment in connection with convertible debt and warrant financing transactions. These errors include the following:

The Company did not properly evaluate the fair value of the warrants and beneficial conversion features associated with these financing transactions;

The Company did not properly account for the fair value of the warrants and beneficial conversion features associated with these financing transactions;

In certain cases, the Company improperly recorded a derivative liability in connection with these transactions;

In those cases where the Company did properly record a derivative liability in connection with a financing or a restructuring of a prior financing, the Company did not properly calculate the derivative liability associated therewith; and

In certain cases, the Company did not properly account for the conversion of the convertible notes and convertible preferred stock and the exercise of the warrants.

The Company also believes such restatements reflect the correction of any errors and omissions of material disclosures in the financial statements in accordance with ASC 250-10, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.

The following are explanations of the restatement adjustments and presentation of affected accounts in the consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations as previously reported and restated:

September 30, 2008 Statement of Operations

As a result of the restatements, the following changes were made:

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2008

Production costs increased by $485,492 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, from $97,147 to $582,639 as a result of reclassification of expenditures relating to mine operations.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $37,412 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, from $1,463,375 to $1,500,787, due to the reversal of loan settlement expenses that the Company previously recorded in connection with conversion of convertible notes and convertible preferred stock and capitalization of expenditures relating to mine development.

Gain on derivatives decreased by $389,374 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, from $389,374 to $0, due to recalculation of derivative liability and due to the reclassification of derivative liability to permanent equity.

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

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Quest’s consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this report. This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The statements contained in this report that are not historic in nature, particularly those that utilize terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “believes,” or “plans” or comparable terminology are forward-looking statements based on current expectations and assumptions. Various risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Please refer to the Risk Factors section of Quest’s annual report on Form 10-K, as amended, for a description of these risks and uncertainties.

All forward-looking statements in this document are based on information currently available to Quest as of the date of this report, and Quest assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

General

Quest Minerals & Mining Corp. acquires and operates energy and mineral related properties in the southeastern part of the United States. Quest focuses its efforts on properties that produce quality compliance blend coal.

Quest is a holding company for Quest Minerals & Mining, Ltd., a Nevada corporation, or Quest (Nevada), which in turn is a holding company for Quest Energy, Ltd., a Kentucky corporation, or Quest Energy, and of Gwenco, Inc., a Kentucky corporation, or Gwenco. Quest Energy is the parent corporation of E-Z Mining Co., Inc, a Kentucky corporation, or E-Z Mining, and of Quest Marine Terminal, Ltd., a Kentucky corporation, or Quest Marine.

Gwenco leases over 700 acres of coal mines, with approximately 12,999,000 tons of coal in place in six seams. In 2004, Gwenco had reopened Gwenco’s two former drift mines at Pond Creek and Lower Cedar Grove, and had begun production at the Pond Creek seam. This seam of high quality compliance coal is located at Slater’s Branch, South Williamson, Kentucky.

2009 Developments

Coal Production. Due to economic conditions in the first quarter of 2009, domestic steel production dropped significantly, thereby reducing demand for Quest’s coal. In order to conserve costs, Quest temporarily suspended operations in the second quarter of 2009. Quest procured a new contract for the sale of coal to a new customer in the second quarter of 2009. In addition, it received new coal orders from another coal distribution company and we re-started coal production in July 2009. In July and August 2009, Quest encountered temporary delays and stoppages that are normally associated with resuming dormant mine operations. In September, Quest was able to operate without any significant delays or stoppages, which allowed it to increase coal production and generate $235,000 in coal sales for the month. In October, Quest increased its production to generate $292,000 in coal sales. Furthermore, as Quest advances further in the mine, it has been encountering thicker coal seams, which resulted in improved rates of recovery in the recent months.

Gwenco, Inc. Chapter 11 Reorganization. On March 2, 2007, Quest’s wholly owned subsidiary, Gwenco, Inc., filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky. Management felt this was a necessary step to further the company’s financial restructuring initiative and to protect Gwenco’s assets from claims, debts, judgments, foreclosures, and forfeitures of those creditors and stakeholders with whom both Quest and Gwenco were unable to negotiate restructured agreements. The company is currently overseeing Gwenco’s operations as a debtor in possession, subject to court approval of matters outside the ordinary course of business.

On August 3, 2007, the Bankruptcy Court approved Gwenco’s request for debtor-in-possession financing in an amount of up to $2,000,000 from holders of Gwenco’s existing debt obligations in order to fund operating expenses. Gwenco intends to continue its mining operations at Pond Creek mine at Slater’s Branch while this matter is completed. Under Chapter 11, claims against Gwenco in existence prior to the filing of the petitions for reorganization relief under the federal bankruptcy laws are stayed while Gwenco is in bankruptcy.

The Class 2 Claims were due and payable as of the effective date of the Plan.

The Class 4 Claims will be paid after holders of all allowed claims in other classes have been paid in full. The Class 5 Claims were deemed unimpaired.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of Quest’s financial conditions and results of operations is based upon Quest’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of financial statements requires managers to make estimates and disclosures on the date of the financial statements. On an on-going basis, Quest evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to revenue recognition. It uses authoritative pronouncements, historical experience, and other assumptions as the basis for making judgments. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Quest believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Mineral Interests

The purchase acquisition costs of mineral properties are deferred until the properties are placed into production, sold or abandoned. These deferred costs will be amortized on the unit-of-production basis over the estimated useful life of the properties following the commencement of production or written-off if the properties are sold, allowed to lapse or abandoned.

Coal Acquisition Costs

The costs to obtain coal lease rights are capitalized and amortized primarily by the units-of-production method over the estimated recoverable reserves. Amortization occurs either as Quest mines on the property or as others mine on the property through subleasing transactions.

Rights to leased coal lands are often acquired through royalty payments. As mining occurs on these leases, the accrued royalty is charged to cost of coal sales.

Mining Acquisition Costs

The costs to obtain any interest in third-party mining operations are expensed unless significantly proven reserves can be established for the entity. At that point, capitalization would occur.

Deferred Mine Equipment

Asset Impairment

If facts and circumstances suggest that a long-lived asset may be impaired, the carrying value is reviewed under the guidance of ASC 360-10, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” If the review indicates that the value of the asset will not be recoverable, as determined based on projected undiscounted cash flows related to the asset over its remaining life, then the carrying value of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value.

Revenue Recognition

Coal sales revenues are sales to customers of coal produced at Quest’s operations. Quest recognizes revenue from coal sales at the time title passes to the customer.

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, Quest began recording compensation expense associated with stock options and other forms of equity compensation in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10 “Stock Compensation.” Prior to January 1, 2006, Quest had accounted for stock options according to the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations, and therefore no related compensation expense was recorded for awards granted with no intrinsic value. Quest adopted the modified prospective transition method provided for ASC 718-10, and, consequently, has not retroactively adjusted results from prior periods.

Income Taxes

Quest provides for the tax effects of transactions reported in the consolidated financial statements. The provision, if any, consists of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities, if any, represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. As of September 30, 2009, Quest had no material current tax liability, deferred tax assets, or liabilities to impact on Quest’s financial position because the deferred tax asset related to Quest’s net operating loss carry forward was fully offset by a valuation allowance. However, Quest has not filed its corporate income tax returns since 2002.

Fair Value

The FASB has issued ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements”, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, but does not require any new fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with the exception of all non-financial assets and liabilities, which will be effective for years beginning after November 15, 2008. Quest adopted the required provisions of ASC 820-10 that became effective in its first quarter of 2008. The adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on Quest’s consolidated financial statements. In February 2008, the FASB issued ASC 820-10-15, “Effective Date of FASB ASC 820-10.” ASC 820-10-15 delays the effective date of ASC 820-10 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for certain items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). In October 2008, the FASB issued ASC 820-10-35, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active.” ASC 820-10-35 applies to financial assets within the scope of accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements in accordance with ASC 820-10. This ASC clarifies the application of ASC 820-10 in determining the fair values of assets or liabilities in a market that is not active. In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 820-10-65, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.” ASC 820-10-65 does not change the definition of fair value as detailed in ASC 820-10, but provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with ASC 820-10 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. The provisions of ASC 820-10-65 are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. If early adoption is elected for either ASC 320-10 or ASC 825-10 and ASC 270-10, ASC 820-10-65 must also be adopted early.

ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date ASC 820-10 requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels.

There are three general valuation techniques that may be used to measure fair value, as described below:

Cost approach – Based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost); and

Financial assets and liabilities are valued using either level 1 inputs based on unadjusted quoted market prices within active markets or using level 2 inputs based primarily on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active or inactive markets. For certain debt, fair value is based on present value techniques using inputs derived principally or corroborated from market data. Using level 3 inputs using management’s assumptions about the assumptions market participants would utilize in pricing the asset or liability. In Quest’s case, this entailed assumptions used in pricing models for note discounts. Valuation techniques utilized to determine fair value are consistently applied.

Earnings (loss) per share

Quest adopted ASC 260-10 and the guidance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 98, which provides for the calculation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period, after provisions for cumulative dividends on Series A preferred stock. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings similar to fully diluted earnings per share. The assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and the conversion of convertible securities were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because the assumed exercises and conversions would be anti-dilutive for the periods presented.

Stock Split

All references to common stock and per share data have been retroactively restated to account for the 1 for 10 reverse stock split effectuated on November 4, 2008 and the 1 for 100 reverse stock split effectuated on August 4, 2009.

Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008

Net sales. Revenues for Quest were $348,334 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $223,305 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. In January 2008, we retained White Star Mining to conduct all mining operations at Pond Creek. As a result of this change in mine operators, we had to cease mining operations to obtain new permitting and to conduct further rehabilitation of the mine. White Star retained all necessary permits to begin mining operations in February 2008, and we resumed mining operations in July 2008. We generated revenues of $223,305 in the three months ended September 30, 2008 as a result of coal produced in connection with remediation of the mine prior to opening in July 2008.

We continued to generate mining in the first quarter of 2009, similar to other periods since reopening of the mine in July 2008. However, due to economic conditions in the first quarter of 2009, domestic steel production dropped significantly thereby reducing demand for our coal. In order to conserve costs, we temporarily suspended operations in the second quarter of 2009.

Quest procured a new contract for the sale of coal to a new customer in the second quarter of 2009. In addition, it received new coal orders from another coal distribution company and we re-started coal production in July 2009. In July and August 2009, Quest encountered temporary delays and stoppages that are normally associated with resuming dormant mine operations. In September, Quest was able to operate without any significant delays or stoppages, which allowed it to increase coal production. As a result, Quest was able to generate revenues of $348,334 in the third quarter. Quest has continued to operate without any significant delays or stoppages since the end of the third quarter through the date of this report. Furthermore, as Quest advances further in the mine, it has been encountering thicker coal seams, which has resulted in improved rates of recovery in its mining operations.

Production costs. Production costs were $655,566 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $582,639 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Our increase in production costs is due to our increased level of mining operations in the three months ended September 30, 2009 versus the comparable period in 2008. Furthermore, Quest and its contract miner, White Star Mining, have modified their arrangement from a stated dollar-per-ton mined basis to a “cost-plus” basis.

Selling, general, and administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $574,981 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, from $1,500,787 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses results primarily from the elimination of compensation expense from the issuance of stock options as well as significantly reduced consulting expense.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $40,862, or approximately 66%, for the three months ended September 30, 2009, from $120,411 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. In 2008, Quest wrote off approximately $213,000 in equipment, resulting in significantly lower depreciation in the third quarter of 2009 as compared to the prior period. This decrease was offset by amortization of mine development expenditures that occurred in 2008.

Operating loss. Quest incurred an operating loss of $923,075 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared to an operating loss of $1,980,532 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. It had lower operating losses in the three months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2008 primarily from the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses and lower depreciation.

Loan settlement and extinguishment cost. Quest recorded a loss of $1,200,305 on loan settlement and extinguishment costs in the three months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a loss of 78,635 on loan settlement and extinguishment costs in the comparable period in 2008. This loss primarily results from negotiated resolution of outstanding contested matter with Quest’s largest creditor.

Interest. Interest expense increased to $233,189 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, from $196,793 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Quest’s interest expense results from various outstanding debt obligations, including obligations that Quest assumed in connection with the acquisition of Gwenco and various notes issued in various financings since October 2004. In addition, it includes expense associated with the issuance of securities with beneficial conversion features. The increase results primarily from increased borrowings as well an increase in beneficial conversion expense in the third quarter of 2009 from the prior period.

Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008

Net sales. Revenues for Quest were $678,648 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $282,392 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. In January 2008, we retained White Star Mining to conduct all mining operations at Pond Creek. As a result of this change in mine operators, we had to cease mining operations to obtain new permitting and to conduct further rehabilitation of the mine. White Star retained all necessary permits to begin mining operations in February 2008, and we resumed mining operations in July 2008. We have continued to generate mining in the first quarter of 2009, similar to other periods since reopening of the mine in July 2008. We generated revenues of $282,392 in the nine months ended September 30, 2008 as a result of coal produced in connection with remediation of the mine prior to opening in July 2008.

Quest procured a new contract for the sale of coal to a new customer in the second quarter of 2009. In addition, it received new coal orders from another coal distribution company and we re-started coal production in July 2009. In July and August 2009, Quest encountered temporary delays and stoppages that are normally associated with resuming dormant mine operations. In September, Quest was able to operate without any significant delays or stoppages, which allowed it to increase coal production. As a result, Quest was able to generate revenues of $348,334 in the third quarter. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, coal revenues were $678,648. Quest has continued to operate without any significant delays or stoppages since the end of the third quarter through the date of this report. Furthermore, as Quest advances further in the mine, it has been encountering thicker coal seams, which has resulted in improved rates of recovery in its mining operations.

Production costs. Production costs were $1,344,334 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $624,229 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Our increase in production costs is due to our increased level of mining operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 versus the comparable period in 2008. Furthermore, Quest and its contract miner, White Star Mining, have modified their arrangement from a stated dollar-per-ton mined basis to a “cost-plus” basis. As Quest’s operations were dormant for significantly longer stretches during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 than during the comparable period in 2009, the costs of labor and supplies were commensurably higher.

Selling, general, and administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $1,295,002 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, from $2,225,520 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses results primarily from the elimination of compensation expense from the issuance of stock options as well as significantly reduced consulting expense.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation expense decreased to $118,802, or approximately 31.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, from $172,636 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. In 2008, Quest wrote off approximately $213,000 in equipment, resulting in significantly lower depreciation in the first nine months of 2009 as compared to the prior period. This decrease was offset by amortization of mine development expenditures that occurred in 2008.

Operating loss. Quest incurred an operating loss of $2,079,490 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared to an operating loss of $2,739,993 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. It had lower operating losses in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2008 primarily from the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses and lower depreciation, partially offset by the increase in production costs associated with mining operations.

Loan settlement and extinguishment cost. Quest recorded a loss of $1,201,226 on loan settlement and extinguishment costs in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a gain of $49,743 on loan and settlement and extinguishment costs in the comparable period in 2008. This loss primarily results from negotiated resolution of outstanding contested matter with Quest’s largest creditor.

Interest. Interest expense increased to $526,738 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, from $459,318 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Quest’s interest expense results from various outstanding debt obligations, including obligations that Quest assumed in connection with the acquisition of Gwenco and various notes issued in various financings since October 2004. In addition, it includes expense associated with the issuance of securities with beneficial conversion features. The increase results primarily from increased borrowings as well an increase in beneficial conversion expense in the first three quarters of 2009 from the prior period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Quest has financed its operations, acquisitions, debt service, and capital requirements through cash flows generated from operations, and through issuance of debt and equity securities. Its working capital deficit at September 30, 2009 was $8,435,349. It had cash of $251 as of September 30, 2009. In addition, Gwenco, as debtor in possession, had $32,046 in restricted cash and $122,103 in restricted accounts receivable as of September 30, 2009, which amounts are excluded from the working capital deficit.

Quest used $906,421 of net cash in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared to using $1,118,699 in the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was mainly due to Quest’s net loss of $3,807,454. This was offset by non-cash expenses of $118,802 in depreciation and amortization, $571,348 of stock issued for services, a loss on debt extinguishment of $1,201,226, amortization of deferred issuance costs of $226, $142,022 of amortized discount on convertible notes, $12,316 of amortized royalty costs, an increase of accounts payable and accrued expenses of $441,123 and an increase in debt transfer and credits from accrued expenses of $543,678. These amounts were offset by an increase of $120,873 in accounts receivable and an increase of $8,835 in prepaid expenses.

Net cash flows used in investing activities was $37,567 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $172,066 of net cash flows used in investing activities for the comparable period in 2008. The net cash flows used in investing activities in 2009 resulted from $12,000 in equipment purchases and $5,916 in security deposits, which was offset by an increase of $19,651 in restricted cash.

Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $930,800 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared to net cash flows provided by financing activities of $1,317,532 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. This increase in net cash provided by financing activities is due to Quest’s borrowings, including borrowings under its debtor-in-possession credit facility, of $1,097,869, offset by repayment of $167,069 of debt.

Financings and Debt Restructurings

Upon Gwenco’s recommencement of mining operations in the third quarter of 2009, the debtor-in-possession lender required Gwenco to assign all of its accounts receivable to the lender and have all payments on the receivables paid into an escrow account. The lender has been making advances under the facility to Gwenco against the accounts receivable, and the advances are being repaid as payments are made to the escrow account. In connection therewith, the Company issued a convertible promissory note to a third party investor for facilitation of the escrow arrangement. The note is due September 16, 2011 and bears interest at an annual interest rate of eight percent (8%). The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of forty five percent (45%) of the average of the five (5) lowest per share market value during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding a conversion date.

On September 30, 2009, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”). The Plan became effective on October 12, 2009. Under Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization, the Court approved an exit facility under which Interstellar Holdings LLC will provide up to $2 million in financing to Gwenco. Gwenco intends to pay off the Total Facility with borrowings from the exit facility. The exit facility consists of a 5 year secured convertible line of credit note, which note is convertible into common stock of the Company at a rate of the lower of (i) $0.001 per share and (ii) 40% of the average of the three lowest per shares market values of the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days before a conversion; provided that the holder shall be prohibited from converting if such conversion would result in it holding more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

A third-party lender advances operational funding to Quest. Since there has been no formal agreement regarding the balance owed, Quest accrues a 5% annual interest on the principal with the intent that a mutual arrangement will be resolved between both parties. On June 26, 2009, Quest entered into an exchange agreement with the third party investor, pursuant to which the investor exchanged approximately $1,082,411 of the evidences of indebtedness, along with $ 124,195 of accrued interest thereon, for a new convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $1,200,000. The new note is due June 26, 2011 and bears interest at an annual rate of six percent (6%). The new note is convertible into shares of Quest’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per share, subject to adjustment. As of September 30, 2009, there continues to be no formal agreement regarding the remaining evidences of indebtedness of $136,497, and Quest continues to accrue 5% annual interest on the principal with the intent that a mutual arrangement will be resolved between both parties.

On August 14, 2008, Quest issued an 8% $400,000 convertible promissory note to a single accredited investor. The note is due on July 23, 2010 and is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of sixty percent (60%) of the average of the five (5) lowest per share market value during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding a conversion date. The proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The holder may not convert any outstanding principal amount of this note or accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the extent such conversion would result in the holder beneficially owning in excess of 4.999% of the then issued and outstanding common shares of Quest. On August 28, 2009, the Company amended the conversion price to be forty five percent (45%) of the average of the five (5) lowest per share market value during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding a conversion date in connection with the Company’s common stock being removed from quotation from the OTC Bulletin Board.

On August 28, 2009, Quest borrowed $12,500, and in connection therewith, issued a promissory note that is due on demand and bears interest at an annual interest rate of twelve percent (12%).

Capital Requirements

As stated in the report of Quest’s independent accountants for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, Quest has incurred operating losses since inception and requires additional capital to continue operations, and these conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Quest believes that, as of the date of this report, in order to fund its plan of operations over the next 12 months, it will need to fund its operations out of cash flows generated from operations, to the extent such operations are resumed, and from the sale of additional securities.

Quest is continuing to seek to fund its capital requirements over the next 12 months from the additional sale of its debt and equity securities. It is possible that Quest will be unable to obtain sufficient additional capital through the sale of its securities as needed. Quest has also obtained debtor-in-possession financing through the Gwenco bankruptcy proceedings to fund the capital requirements of Gwenco, Inc. Under Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization, this debtor-in-possession facility is to be replaced with an exit facility on the terms described above.

Part of Quest’s growth strategy is to acquire additional coal mining operations. Where appropriate, Quest will seek to acquire operations located in markets where it currently operates to increase utilization at existing facilities, thereby improving operating efficiencies and more effectively using capital without a proportionate increase in administrative costs. Quest does not currently have binding agreements or understandings to acquire any other companies.

Quest intends to retain any future earnings to pay its debts, finance the expansion of its business and any necessary capital expenditures, and for general corporate purposes.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been made known to them in a timely fashion. In addition, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have identified significant deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that they consider to be “material weaknesses.” The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board has defined a material weakness as a “significant deficiency or combination of significant deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.” In light of the material weaknesses described below, we performed additional procedures to ensure that the consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Annual Report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

We did not design and maintain effective entity-level controls as defined in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Specifically:

1. We lacked the technical expertise and did not maintain adequate procedures to ensure that the accounting for derivative financial instruments under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments, and under Emerging Issues Task Force 00-19, was appropriate. Procedures relating to convertible debt and warrant financing transactions did not operate effectively to (a) properly evaluate embedded derivative liability and warrant liability accounting treatment, (b) meet the documentation requirements of SFAS No. 133 and EITF 00-19, and (c) adequately assess and measure derivative liability values on a quarterly basis. This material weakness resulted in a restatement of prior financial statements, as described in Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and, if not remediated, has the potential to cause a material misstatement in the future.

2. We did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of generally accepted accounting principles commensurate with our financial accounting and reporting requirements and low materiality thresholds. This material weakness contributed to the restatement of prior financial statements, as described in Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and, if not remediated, has the potential to cause a material misstatement in the future.

3. Due to the previously reported material weaknesses, as evidenced by the restatements related to derivative liabilities, management has concluded that the controls over the period-end financial reporting process were not operating effectively. Specifically, controls were not effective to ensure that significant non-routine transactions, accounting estimates, and other adjustments were appropriately reviewed, analyzed, and monitored on a timely basis. A material weakness in the period-end financial reporting process has resulted in our not being able to meet our regulatory filing deadlines and, if not remediated, has the potential to cause a material misstatement or to miss a filing deadline in the future.

These conditions constitute deficiencies in both the design and operation of entity-level controls. As a result of these deficiencies, our original Annual Report on Form 10-KSB did not contain all material information which is required to be disclosed, and in particular, our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. In addition, in 2007, we restated our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the interim consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2005, June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005, March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006, and September 30, 2006. Furthermore, we have restated our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

These significant deficiencies in the design and operation of our internal controls include the needs to hire additional staffing and to provide training to existing and new personnel in SEC reporting requirements and generally accepted accounting principles. Furthermore, the deficiencies include the need for formal control systems for journal entries and closing procedures, the need to form an independent audit committee as a form of internal checks and balances and oversight of our management, to implement budget and reporting procedures, and the need to provide internal review procedures for schedules, SEC reports, and filings prior to submission to the auditors and/or filing with the SEC.

These deficiencies have been disclosed to our Board of Directors. Additional effort is needed to fully remedy these deficiencies and we are seeking to improve and strengthen our control processes and procedures. We are in the process of improving our internal control over financial reporting in an effort to remediate these deficiencies by adding additional accounting personnel, improving supervision and increasing training of our accounting staff with respect to generally accepted accounting principles, providing additional training to our management regarding use of estimates in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, increasing the use of contract accounting assistance, and increasing the frequency of internal financial statement review. We will continue to take additional steps necessary to remediate the material weaknesses described above.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have also evaluated whether any change in our internal controls occurred during the last fiscal quarter and have concluded that there were no changes in our internal controls or in other factors that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, these controls.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Potential SEC Action. On October 31, 2008, we received a Wells notice (the “Notice”) from the staff of the Salt Lake Regional Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) stating that they are recommending an enforcement action be filed against us based on our financial statements and other information contained in reports filed by us with the Commission by us for our 2004 year and thereafter. The Notice states that the Commission anticipates alleging that we have violated Sections 10(b), 13(a) and 13(b)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1 and 13a-13 thereunder. We contend that we have not committed any wrongdoing or the violations referred to in the Notice. We cannot predict whether the Commission will follow the recommendations of the staff and file suit against us. As of the date of this report, the Commission has not commenced any enforcement action against us. If any enforcement proceeding is instituted by the Commission, we will defend the action. We cannot predict the outcome or timing of this matter.

Gwenco, Inc. Chapter 11 Reorganization. On March 2, 2007, our wholly owned subsidiary, Gwenco, Inc., filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky. Management felt this was a necessary step to further our financial restructuring initiative and to protect Gwenco’s assets from claims, debts, judgments, foreclosures, and forfeitures of those creditors and stakeholders with whom both Quest and Gwenco were unable to negotiate restructured agreements. We are currently overseeing Gwenco’s operations as a debtor in possession, subject to court approval of matters outside the ordinary course of business. On August 3, 2007, the Bankruptcy Court approved Gwenco’s request for debtor-in-possession financing in an amount of up to $2,000,000 from holders of Gwenco’s existing debt obligations in order to fund operating expenses. Gwenco intends to continue its mining operations at Pond Creek mine at Slater’s Branch while this matter is completed. Under Chapter 11, claims against Gwenco in existence prior to the filing of the petitions for reorganization relief under the federal bankruptcy laws are stayed while Gwenco is in bankruptcy.

The Class 2 Claims were due and payable as of the effective date of the Plan.

The Class 4 Claims will be paid after holders of all allowed claims in other classes have been paid in full. The Class 5 Claims were deemed unimpaired.

In or about May 2004, National City Bank of Kentucky commenced an action in Boyd County Court, Kentucky against Quest’s indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Gwenco, Inc., and Albert Anderson for breach of various promissory notes issued by Gwenco. Duke Energy Merchants and First Sentry Bank were joined in the action. National City Bank and Duke Energy obtained judgment in that action in the amounts of approximately $340,000 and $670,000, respectively, and have obtained judgment liens based thereon.

On or about August 20, 2008, Duke Energy sold its right, title, and interest in and to the various judgments, judgment liens, and security interests to a third party investor. This claim is classified as a Class 1 Claim in Gwenco’s Plan of Reorganization and will be satisfied pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

On or about August 25, 2004, Valley Personnel Services, Inc. commenced an action in the Circuit Court of Mingo County, West Virginia against Quest’s indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, D&D Contracting, Inc. and Quest Energy, Ltd. for damages in the amount of approximately $150,000, plus pre and post judgment interest as provided by law, costs, and fees. This action was stayed against Gwenco as a result of Gwenco’s Chapter 11 filing.

The Federal Insurance Company, the insurer for Community Trust Bank, commenced an action in Pike County Court, Kentucky against Quest Energy for subrogation of monies it has paid to the bank and repayment of deductibles by Community Trust as a part of an alleged criminal scheme and conspiracy by Mr. Runyon, Ms. Holbrook, Mr. Stollings, and Mr. Wheeler. The insurer alleged that former employees or associates of Quest Energy, including Mr. Runyon and Mr. Wheeler, were primarily involved in the alleged scheme, that Quest Energy is accordingly responsible for the actions of these former employees and associates, and that Quest Energy obtained a substantial material benefit as a result of this alleged scheme. Quest Energy has denied these allegations, that it had any involvement with or responsibility for any of the actions alleged by the insurer, and it further denies that it has benefited from any such alleged scheme. Further, Quest Energy filed a counterclaim against the Federal Insurance Company and Community Trust contending that the negligent actions and inactions by Community Trust caused severe damage and loss to Quest Energy and Quest. The court granted Community Trust’s motion to dismiss the counterclaim.

Mountain Edge Personnel has commenced an action in the Circuit Court of Mingo County, West Virginia against Quest’s now-dissolved indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, J. Taylor Mining, for damages in the amount of approximately $115,000, plus pre and post judgment interest as provided by law, costs, and fees. This matter was settled in January 2009 for payment of approximately $25,000.

An action has been commenced in the Circuit Court of Pike County, Kentucky against Quest and its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries, Gwenco, Inc., Quest Energy, Ltd., and J. Taylor Mining, for unspecified damages resulting from personal injuries suffered while working for Mountain Edge Personnel, an employee leasing agency who leased employees to Quest’s subsidiaries. Quest Energy is actively defending the action. This action was originally stayed against Gwenco as a result of Gwenco’s Chapter 11 filing. However, in March, 2008, the plaintiff obtained relief from stay and as a result the lawsuit has reopened against Gwenco.

BHP, Inc. commenced an action in the Circuit Court of Pike County, Kentucky against Quest’s indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Quest Energy, Ltd., for damages resulting an alleged failure to pay for certain equipment leases in the amount of approximately $225,000, plus pre and post judgment interest as provided by law, costs, and fees. July 10, 2006, Quest Energy entered into a settlement arrangement with BHP for the bill of sale on two pieces of equipment, of which Quest Energy had retained possession while in default of prior lease payments. On October 10, 2006, the Pike County Circuit Court entered an order enforcing this settlement agreement, and on December 19, 2006, BHP was awarded summary judgment in the amount of $35,000 plus 8% accrued interest from August 9, 2006. BHP, Inc. has since repossessed the equipment.

Christopher Younger and Sharon Preece commenced an action in the Circuit Court of Pike County against Quest’s indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Gwenco, Inc., for damages resulting from an alleged failure to pay past royalties and other amounts allegedly due. The plaintiffs have obtained a default judgment in this action in the amount of $687,391. Foreclosure on the judgment was stayed against Gwenco as a result of Gwenco’s filing of a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In 2007, Gwenco settled the claim of Sharon Preece for $150,000. The settlement was approved by the bankruptcy court.

In the second quarter of 2009, Gwenco commenced an adversary proceeding against Christopher Younger and Gwen Slater (the third former owner of Gwenco) relating to their claims against Gwenco. One of the claims is based upon the unsettled portion of the $687,391 default judgment described herein, and both claims are derived from accrued royalties owed to them under a 1990 stock purchase agreement. In the adversary proceeding, Gwenco contended that the amounts of the claims that should be allowed are substantially lower than the claims presented by the former owners. In addition, Gwenco contends that the default judgment was obtained without proper service of process and is void.

Gwenco has entered into settlement agreements with each of Gwen Slater and Christopher Younger, pursuant to which the parties agreed that Ms. Slater would have an allowed unsecured claim of $161,824, plus interest in the amount of $40,000, for a total of $201,824, and that Mr. Younger would have an allowed unsecured claim of $92,238, plus interest in the amount of $25,000, for a total of $117,238, each of which is to be paid along with the other allowed unsecured claims under Gwenco’s Chapter 11 plan of reorganization. Each of Ms. Slater and Mr. Younger has the right to convert up to $40,000 of their claim into Quest’s common stock at a conversion price of eighty five percent (85%) of the average of the five (5) per share market values immediately preceding a conversion date, with a minimum conversion price of the par value of Quest’s common stock. On July 21, 2009, the Court approved the settlement agreements.

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS

As a “small reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this item.

ITEM 2 – CHANGES IN SECURITIES

(a)

(1) During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, Quest issued an aggregate of 37,014,294 shares of common stock upon conversions of various convertible notes. The aggregate principal and interest amount of these notes that were converted was $234,155. The issuances were exempt pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act as well as Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

(2) On July 11, 2009, Quest and Gwenco entered into a settlement and release agreement with Quest’s largest lender to resolve various disputes that had arisen between Quest and the lender. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the lender waived certain defaults under various debt obligations. In exchange for this consideration, Quest issued the lender a new convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000. The note is due July 11, 2011 and bears interest at an annual interest rate of six percent (6%). The new note is convertible into shares of Quest’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per share, subject to adjustment. The issuance was exempt pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

(3) On July 13, 2009, Quest issued a consulting bonus in the form of a convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $200,000 to a third party consulting company owned by a stockholder of Quest. The note is due July 13, 2011 and bears interest at an annual interest rate of six percent (6%). The new note is convertible into shares of Quest’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per share, subject to adjustment. The issuance was exempt pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

(5) On August 28, 2009, Quest borrowed $12,500, and in connection therewith, issued a promissory note that is due on demand and bears interest at an annual interest rate of twelve percent (12%). The issuance was exempt pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

(6) On September 16, 2009, Quest issued a convertible promissory note to a third party investor for facilitation of Gwenco’s Debtor-In-Possession financing. The note is due September 16, 2011 and bears interest at an annual interest rate of eight percent (8%). The note is convertible into shares of Quest’s common stock at a conversion price of forty five percent (45%) of the average of the five (5) lowest per share market value during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding a conversion date. The issuance was exempt pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

(b) None.

ITEM 3 – DEFAULT UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

(a) Please see our disclosure under Item 2—(a)(2) above which is incorporated herein by reference.

(b) None.

ITEM 4 – SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

Please see our Definitive Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed with the SEC on September 22, 2009, which is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 5 – OTHER INFORMATION

(1) Quest’s previously issued financial statements have been restated as a result of an internal review of its previously issued financial statements, which review was prompted by Quest’s receipt of a Wells Notice from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. After review of the inquiry and investigation and further analysis, Quest determined that it had made errors in the application of generally accepted accounting principles relating to its accounting treatment in connection with convertible debt and warrant financing transactions. These errors include the following:

Quest did not properly evaluate the fair value of the warrants and beneficial conversion features associated with these financing transactions;

Quest did not properly account for the fair value of the warrants and beneficial conversion features associated with these financing transactions;

In certain cases, Quest improperly recorded a derivative liability in connection with these transactions;

In those cases where Quest did properly record a derivative liability in connection with a financing or a restructuring of a prior financing, Quest did not properly calculate the derivative liability associated therewith; and

In certain cases, Quest did not properly account for the conversion of the convertible notes and convertible preferred stock and the exercise of the warrants.

The Company also believes such restatements reflect the correction of any errors and omissions of material disclosures in the financial statements in accordance with SFAS 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (as amended).

The nature of the errors and the restatement adjustments that Quest has made to its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 are set forth in Note 18 of its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and the years then ended as filed on Form 10-K for the year then ended.

The restatements also affected the quarterly results of operations for the periods ended March 31, 2008, June 30, 2008, and September 30, 2008. The nature of the errors and the restatement adjustments that Quest has made to its consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 are set forth in Note 18 of its consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2009 and the three and nine months then ended, which are contained in this report.

Accordingly, the Board of Directors has determined that Quest’s previously issued consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007, and applicable reports of its independent registered public accounting firm, and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2008, June 30, 2008, and September 30, 2008, should no longer be relied upon.

Quest has filed with the SEC an Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K, an Amendment No. 1 to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which contain restated financial statements for the above-referenced periods. The Board of Directors and management of Quest have discussed the matters disclosed herein with Quest’s independent registered public accounting firm.

(2) On November 23, 2009, Quest amended its articles of incorporation to reduce the par value of our common stock from $0.001 per share to $0.0001 per share.
