can there be two different mineral right leases on the same property?
someone has mineral rights specifically stated as "from surface down to, but not to exceed, 15300 ft". Can I purchase rights below this depth? I have reason to believe drilling will be very close if not deeper according to the landman, plus, all area wells (5) are currently drilled at the 14500 to 15100 ft depth. I’ve unable to determine if any rights are claimed beyound the 15300 ft depth.

you would have to purchase the rights to the land adjacent to the land you are speaking of, in order to get to the land below 15300 feet. But, i would say if you have the means to do so that it would be plausible.

Are you talking about a well for a water supply ? If so, you are advised to check again on those depths. You’re talking about a water well about three miles in depth, and this is unheard of.
