Tuscaloosa Trend Sits On Top Of Poorest Neighbourhood For Decades - Yet No Royalties Ever Paid To The Community -- Why??
In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near Southern University, Louisiana—yet neither the university ( that I am aware of) nor local residents appear to have received any compensation for the minerals extracted from their land.

Shaler,
Soon after I started GHS, the need for a dynamic online tool became apparent. I wanted a site that would nicely compliment GHS and add to the GHS user's experience. I tried a couple a different options, but they stunk. It became obvious to me that this was something that could not be done on the cheap. So after a couple designers and "back-to-the-drawing board moments," we are finally ready to open up shalebiz.com for business. Future tweaks will be performed, but I am thrilled with the potential of this website.
Some of ShaleBiz.com's features.
Market Place Ad Listings, Water Resource Listings, Lease Offer Database, Royalty Calculator, Resume Database,
Job Listings, Shale Info, News Feeds, Event Listings
Iinitially, I will be offering free listings to GHS members. So go over and get your listing!
