I’m trying to get information on how leasing mineral rights work! Can someone help me out?
Try the NARO website for some basics. If you do not want to pay for a membership, you can try Google Gemini. If you enter a good set of prompts, then you will get decent information in return.
If you are new, the Mineral Help tab above is a good place to start. Read that first. There are several good books. “Look Before you Lease” by Jim Stafford is a good primer. A bit out of date, but a general guideline. Ask questions in the forum using the Counties tab above.
The National Association of Royalty Owners www.naro-us.org is an excellent organization for royalty/mineral owners. They have webinars by state and topic, conferences, minerals management trainings, etc. Check out their upcoming events.
