I have mineral rights in Rusk County, Texas and hope that I will be contacted to renew my lease. Sabine Oil had leased previously and we were ready to begin drilling for natural gas when they filed for bankruptcy. I have heard from no one in a few years now so am hopeful someone will contact me to sign a lease and begin the drilling. Can anyone share what leases are going for nowadays? I previously got $650 an acre.

Hey Cathy,
There are currently only two rigs in all of Rusk County, and they are in the far northern part of the county; the rigs are for Rockcliff and TANOS.
The last lease taken in your survey was in 2017, by a company called Cinron Energy. There are a few leases taken in adjacent surveys by Twin Resources, KJ Energy and Concord Land Services. I do not know the bonus rates.

Hey Mark,
Do you have a legal description for your property?

Hello Trey,
Thank you for your response. We have two tracts that are separated by FM 3135. “The McWilliams Bros” - larger tract description is as follows: 300.8-acre tract Benjamin Brown Survey, A-145, Rusk County. The 146-acre tract sits on a separate survey and is on the north side of FM 3135. Total is 446+/- acres. Thoughts??
Regards, Mark McWilliams
