§ 10503 Mineral And Oil Land

• •This law talks about land used for digging up minerals, oil, or gas.
• •It includes land where people plan to dig or say they will dig for these things.
• •The land is special because it’s for mining or drilling, not for houses or farms.

A company buys a big piece of empty land and says they will drill for oil there.

This land is now called 'mineral, oil or gas property' because the company plans to use it for drilling oil.
