Are you getting paid on lithium in produced water? If so, could you share who your operator is? I’ve heard that several operators are paying, but would love to hear from you the mineral owner if you have an operator who is already paying you or you have signed a recent lease recognizing your rights.
Thanks for your help.

Lana, do you have an example of a lease recognizing Lithium production?

@Don_Ayres I’ve seen several now. We are working on some language that we may be able to share with members soon.
