Brian,
I, too, am a Mississippi mineral holder on a couple hundred acres. I was interested in the conversation between you and Mr. Cotten because I have the same concerns in a lease being negotiated in Wilkerson County as we speak.
The language of the lease clearly takes away our right to profit from horizontal drilling if they so choose.
They are unwilling to change it which leaves us in a Mexican standoff.
Mr Cotten surely appears to have a broad knowledge of the industry, huh?
Any activity, especially that in the Tuscaloosa Shale that you run across, I
would appreciate you posting it for my viewing. Information has been so
hard to come by especially when you are a layman in this business.
Thanks!
