My Story: How I Got Started Buying Mineral Rights

My dad’s nearly microscopic interest in a Texas oil well was his pride and joy.
My dad’s father passed away when my dad was very young, which is probably why he was so attached to that oil well. It was the only connection he had to his father and the west Texas land that his family once owned.
When the fracking boom hit, my dad started receiving royalties on a new horizontal well. It wasn’t much, but it was really exciting compared to the few dollars of revenue from the original well.
My dad would give me oil updates during every phone call, and I’d give him hell about supporting fracking and destroying the earth.
Until he died.
His house's entire contents were declared a biohazard, so all I had from my father was the mineral interest in these two oil wells.
The weirdest thing happened - I became so attached to his mineral interest that fracking and fossil fuels no longer bothered me (I did put some solar panels on my roof to balance my karma, though).
After splitting my father’s interest with my sister, the minerals were worth half as much. I wanted to be able to pass them onto to my kids one day, but by the time the two of them split the interest, it would be nearly worthless.
So, I set out to educate myself and buy more minerals. I met a fantastic landman, and he helped me buy my first few mineral and royalty interests. I later started Blue Mesa Minerals, LLC. My primary focus is purchasing oil and gas royalties and mineral rights from mineral owners, trustees, trust managers, personal representatives, and estates' executors. I also teach new and aspiring mineral buyers how to buy oil and gas mineral rights.

So when you buy these minerals rights does that mean you can hire someone anytime to start drilling for oil. ( I know this is underground but are there any fees like yearly taxes associated with mineral rights like land tax

[@BlueMesaMinerals]

If you own 100% of the mineral rights and have very deep pockets, then sure! This almost never the case, though. Some mineral rights are taxed regardless of production status while others are only taxed based on production - it depends on where the mineral rights are located.
