Minerals Under the Lignite Mines

Minerals Under the Lignite Mines

Dolet Hills - DeSoto (Oxford – Red River) Lignite mine

Recent articles about the planned solar farm project that will occupy land formerly a part of the Dolet Hills lignite mine remind me that mineral servitudes or fee land that was later sold creating a mineral servitude by law were imprescriptible and not subject to the ten-year drill it or lose it state mineral code.

Now that the mine has closed, mineral servitude prescription has or will begin again. The mine footprint is proven for economic Haynesville shale and possibly Bossier shale. Any member who owns minerals formerly covered by the mine need to be aware that their mineral ownership did not prescribe but that prescription should be tracked and they should be aware of Haynesville development that might include their mineral interests.

Please spread the word to family and neighbors. This is something that landmen for Haynesville operators have missed in the past including one or more of our members.

Request For Assistance

2020-10-22T14:01:34.899Z

In order to help a NW LA mineral owner who has been denied the opportunity to fully benefit from their Haynesville Shale acreage, I am asking the members for their assistance. I need to document lease bonuses greater than $10,000 per acre paid in 2008 between May and September. Documentation may take the form of a check stub, bank draft, cover letter, letter agreement, email or correspondence on the letterhead of the company that offered the lease. Documentation of royalty greater than 25% would be very helpful also.

Those wishing to remain anonymous may do so and all personal information can be redacted. For those that are willing to make their personal information available to assist in supporting the value of the minerals in question, an executed affidavit is all that is needed. It’s not often that an opportunity comes along to help fellow GoHaynesvilleShale.com members get what they rightly deserve. So many who were taken advantage of may never get that chance.

I keep my personal page set as “private” so only those who are my “friends” may access it. If you are not already one of my 762 "friends" and would like to help, send me a friend request. I do not “approve” comments on my personal page so even my “friends” with access to my page can not view them. You will find my off-site email address on my page and you can choose to email me or communicate with me by leaving a comment on my personal page. I promise to protect the identity of those who may choose to help. Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Drilling in DeSoto Parish and Red River Parish

2014-03-12T14:02:09.921Z

Broadly speaking, the drilling activity in DeSoto and Red River Parishes into the Haynesville has historically been similar. Surely, DeSoto Parish has more often than not had more rigs working than in Red River Parish but the difference has not been great. There have been a few times when Red River Parish had more rigs operating than DeSoto. Now it seems that many more rigs are operating in DeSoto than in Red River. Is my perception correct? If I am correct, why the difference in activity? Is not the core of the Haynesville found in both parishes? What are drillers looking for and finding in DeSoto that is not to be found in Red River Parish? For the record, I have property and mineral interests in both parishes.

Section 20 or 17 14N 9W royalties

Thorn Lake Field

2012-05-10T11:25:32.500Z

New permits continue to be taken in Red River Parish. Petrohawk has recently permitted two wells in the Thorn Lake Field (09-14-11). What is the economic impetus for this? Why do some companies continue to drill and others walk away from leases?
