State Lands Open to Mineral Development
A new state law will open nearly three million acres of state lands to mineral development including coal oil and gas. The law preserves mineral deposits from sale and sets location, leasing, and royalty rules. Prospector rights include two years to locate, five year lease terms, surface compensation for damages, and ongoing access for prospecting and development. The law aims to boost mineral resource development and potential state revenues from royalties.
