Howdy,
I'm looking for a map that shows exactly where my family's mineral rights lease is located.
All I got so far is the survey location, called Chandler-Johnson A-19.
I've read it's somewhere South of Lufkin, TX.
Does anyone know how to find that location on GPS or a Google Maps if I drive there?
Much Appreciated,
Lance

Thanks!

My brothers and I were pleased to see BBX Operating, L.L.C., who we have our lease with, just announced they will drill their first deep well on the survey called, "Bigfoot".

The drilling permit in question is a .pdf attachment on that page.
It states the drill site is RRC distict #06, 9.85 miles SW of Zavalla on the A-19 survey. I'm interested in finding the precise location on Google Earth, so I can pinpoint where to go on my next trip there.
Any help narrowing down the exact location of "Bigfoot" is appreciated.

Looks like I was lucky enough to have gotten to the Renfro Cemetery, only a few miles away from the pending drill site.
Thank You!

I'm planning to go back there for photo ops as soon as the drilling equipment is positioned. We wish them the best of fortune!

So, my question now is...
Is the Chandler Johnson A-19 survey over Haynesville Shale or some other formation(s)?

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…

AboutAs exciting as this is, we know that we have a responsibility to do this thing correctly. After all, we want the farm to remain a place where the family can gather for another 80 years and beyond. This site was born out of these desires. Before we started this site, googling "shale' brought up little information. Certainly nothing that was useful as we negotiated a lease. Read More |
