Totally lost. Inherited mineral rights with brother covering about 37 percent of 160 acres. Owners of 50 percent won’t talk with me. (They are angry that my cousin sold 100 percent surface rights and only half of mineral rights.)
Lease offer made for 5 years at 50 dollars an acre and 1/6th royalties. (Section 24/Township 24S/Range 22E) By the time I investigated, the offer was dropped. Half of the 50 percent owners (sister) signed a lease. Don’t know if her brother and his wife signed a lease. Can leases be secured without everyone on board?
What should my next step be?
