Hi, DeeDee. No, I am also new to this. I am trying to learn what I can about the whole thing. It seems like a lot of people are finding out they own mineral rights and a lot of people are trying to lease them. My gut feeling is to go slowly and do your homework. Here is a website I found: [http://www.mineralweb.com/](http://www.mineralweb.com/)

I have received lease offers each of the last two years from different exploration companies on my mineral interests in San Augustine County, Texas. I am corresponding with the agent of the most recent entity to offer a lease and researching from afar as I don’t live nearby. Is anyone aware of exploration activity or gas wells that have been completed within the last 12 months in San Augustine County? Has anyone else received a recent lease offer and, if so, from which company?

There are lots of wells completed and a few being drilled in northwestern San Augustine County. They are finishing one on my property now. I talked with an EXCO rep earlier this week. He said due to the price of natural gas they are just drilling to hold leases now. What part of San Augustine is your land in?

I am an oil and gas attorney in Texas and have done some work in the San Augustine area. Can I ask what sort of information you are looking for? Are you familiar with researching County records and the online resources of the Railroad Commission of Texas?

I just received a lease from an oil and gas company. It was for $500 per acre and 1/6 royalty. Is this a good offer? My land is north of San Augustine in San Augustine County.

A 1/4 royalty seems to still be the norm for the area. Do you know the name of the Operator or Broker that’s making the offer and also how long the lease term is? I have acreage available near the new James Lime wells to the south of San Augustine.

To Margaret: in regard to your recent offer from Lessee - for 1/6 royalty and $500/ac bonus:

Would that offer happen to be from Consolidated Property in the Enoch Jones Sur? I am negotiating with them for a good friend - and by the way that is not a “market” offer. Bonus is currently around the $1500 level and 1/6 royalty is too low. I have advised my friend to demand $1500/ac and 1/5 for 3 yrs. That is a reasonable offer and any reputable lessee would gladly pay that.

My wife signed a lease early on, when leasing was just starting, before drilling. She got $400 an acre and 1/4 minerals. She could have gotten $500 an acre, but live and learn, still is nice money coming in from the gas and now oil wells. She doesn’t own the land, just part of the minerals.
