Hello friends:

Hoping some of you seasoned land owners can advise me here-

Here is the legal description of my property:

Acres: 5.000 Blk: 45 Tract: 23 AB 3826 SEC 23 BLK 45PSL SE/4 SW/4 NW/4 E/2

Here is an online link to the State of Texas lease agreement, which includes my 5 acres:

[https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=gmail&attid=0.1&thid=1390c2fa8f5b0f0c&mt=application/pdf&url=https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=b9e6564417&view=att&th=1390c2fa8f5b0f0c&attid=0.1&disp=safe&realattid=f\_h5o1k8kp0&zw&sig=AHIEtbSjTYZPlfk0IxPGQl6GGT601xCLqg](https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=gmail&attid=0.1&thid=1390c2fa8f5b0f0c&mt=application/pdf&url=https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=b9e6564417&view=att&th=1390c2fa8f5b0f0c&attid=0.1&disp=safe&realattid=f_h5o1k8kp0&zw&sig=AHIEtbSjTYZPlfk0IxPGQl6GGT601xCLqg)

I have been actively seeking whether I own only surface rights or mineral rights as well. That is not my issue here. I came across this agreement online, between the State of Texas and a private company, leasing both surface and mineral rights to them. My 5 acres falls within this lease, and I am wondering if I am entitled to any of the lease proceeds. If so, whom do I contact to pursue legal action? Thanks so much, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Lauren

Cannot open the document, but you can contact the lessee and see if they show you as a mineral owner. Otherwise, you need to do a title search to determine what you own.
