What Are My Mineral Rights Worth? A Straightforward Guide for Owners

If you’ve inherited mineral rights or owned them for years without much involvement, chances are you’ve wondered: What are my mineral rights actually worth? You’re not alone—and the answer isn’t always simple. At 1280 Royalties, we’re here to help you make sense of it all with a clear, honest approach.

Understanding Value: It’s More Than Just the Land

The value of your mineral rights depends on several factors:

• Location – Is the land in an active drilling area?

• Production history – Is there a record of oil or gas production?

• Current market conditions – Commodity prices and demand can impact your value.

• Royalty income – Are you receiving checks now, or could you in the future?

Knowing what your mineral rights are worth starts with understanding these key elements—not just plugging numbers into a calculator.

Why Owners Choose to Sell

For some owners, especially those who inherited their rights or live out of state, the complexity of the industry can be overwhelming. Managing paperwork, tracking production, and handling taxes might not be worth the hassle. That’s where selling becomes an attractive option.

We work with:

• Legacy owners unsure of what to do next

• Farmers and landowners who want to preserve control

• Trusts and estates planning for the next generation
