Yes I have mineral rights in Lamar County and I have a company that wants to buy the surface rights for a solar farm. What are they worth and does that ruin my mineral rights?

You really must get legal help on this situation as solar rights v mineral rights can get very complicated. Solar leases are available if you do not want to sell. But you must be very careful about not losing the dominance of the mineral rights. If not done properly, it could negatively impact your mineral rights.
