5,200’ to 5,500’ feet. There have been recent Barnett wells in the area that have been productive in the oil segment or phase of the Barnett Shale that have justified the seismic study. The onsite seismic work is expected to commence within 90 days.

A mineral interest is the ownership of rights to gas, oil, or other minerals as they naturally occur in place, at or below the surface of a tract of land. Ownership of the minerals carries with it the right to make such reasonable use of the surface as may be necessary to explore for and produce the minerals. Only the mineral owner (or fee owner) may execute an oil or gas lease conveying his interest in a tract of land. Severance: The owner of all rights to a tract of land (vertically or horizontally). In horizontal severance, for example, if he chooses to sell all or part of the mineral rights, two distinct estates are created: the surface rights to the tract of land and the mineral rights to the same tract. The two estates may change hands independently of each other. Severed minerals rights
may be restricted as to mineral type, or limited by depth, (in which case the landowner retains the rights to minerals other than those severed, and to depth intervals other than those severed.)
