kittycatmama. I'm not clear on what you mean by "invest". You say "was held by production". Does that mean that the mineral acres have been released from the prior lease and the group now wishes to enter into a lease?

Skip, I will know more in the next wk. We are investors and I have not run up against this scenario either. 1/2 of an old 18% lease is at stake. I know there are investors interested in getting a part of this 9%. It is in a sweet spot. Between 400-450 ac. are involved. As a landman, I don't know if you have investors who are interested in something like this, but if you do email to my inbox. I will at least get you an introduction to the people involved.

An Exploration company is interested in leasing 100% of a section. 50% in 400+ acres will not go overlooked and is plenty enough acreage to provide great leverage in negotiating a lease.

Also, "investors" would acquire any percentage of Haynesville Shale mineral rights/royalty interest, especially when you are speaking of a tract of that size.

In either case, I would strongly advise seeking legal counsel. You are talking about big money either way.

Good Luck.
