I’ve heard that there is some drilling going on somewhere around Jane Lew right now. Does anyone know if that’s the case?

Received by Consol a lease that we inherited mineral rights on 1,196 acres and they are drilling in the center 40 acres, 8 to 12 wells. Not sure how to deal with this? Need advice, Freemans Creek area.

Was wondering if anyone in Lewis County has been contacted by CNX/Consol about leasing their minerals recently?

There’s definitely a little bit of activity going on in Lewis County. I haven’t been hired by anybody to negotiate anything, so I can’t say what kinds of numbers are being thrown around, but it seems to me you could probably negotiate a new lease up to $2,500/acre and 18% gross proceeds.
