Benefits of selling mineral interests

  • A mineral rights owner can realize an immediate and lump sum value for their minerals interests.

  • Selling non-producing mineral rights removes the risk of waiting on the possibility of potential development.

  • By selling producing minerals an owner can receive a single upfront payment equivalent to multiple years of royalty payments, thereby allowing them to take advantage of the time value of money.

  • Liquidation of mineral assets can ease issues related to estate settlement.

  • Many owners utilize these upfront payments to invest, pay off debt, buy a new home, pay for college, and assist with retirement.
