Steve, this is a duplicate post on the Main Page, Shale Related Topics.  The discussion needs to be in the Union County Group.  I would expect any lease offered currently in Union County to be modest considering there is nothing other than the traditional shallow oil interest.

well, $125/ac is pretty darn modest.

And quite possibly appropriate depending on what you are leasing.  The days of "all depth" leases should be over for any savvy mineral manager.  Personally I would consider accepting a lease at that bonus per acre for shallow rights as long as the other lease terms were acceptable.
