Mineral Joe,
I seem to have lost the remainder of my message to you.
Thank you for your reply. I leased with Quicksilver Resources in February of this year. The legal is: NWNW Section 10, Township 6N, Range 91W in Craig, CO.
In July, I received a certified, return receipt letter from GP offering a lease with three options: two that had different bonus amounts and royalties and one that said if I didn’t want either, then I would share in the production costs of 1.5 million.
I contacted QS only to be told that evidently GP didn’t know we were already leased with them and to just ignore the letter - which I did. She also seemed surprised that GP was drilling on my mineral interest. She told me she would call me back after speaking to her field agent - she hasn’t yet. This entire scenario makes me nervous.
Since that time, I have contacted a couple of government officials from Denver and Moffat County who told me I am a ‘non-working’ party. Quicksilver is a ‘working interest’ which means they share in the production costs and I don’t. I was also told that whatever royalty interest I have agreed upon in my lease to QS, is the percentage I will receive from this well, should it be productive. The well is named the Elgin Well, 11-01-1.
I hope this will clarify things for you to answer my earlier questions.
Lee
