A plain-language guide to mineral land rights

Mineral rights can be difficult to distinguish from other interests in land. Levonne Louie’s guide sets out fundamental concepts of mineral ownership and addresses questions that arise when an oil and gas company approaches a landowner about leasing or drilling. It also speaks to industry professionals seeking a grounding in mineral land. The subject is practical and specific, connecting ownership concepts with interactions between landowners and the oil and gas industry. Published in 2014, the book presents its material from that date; readers dealing with current legal or regulatory questions should consider the relevant jurisdiction and seek up-to-date guidance.
