Unsolicited offer to purchase mineral rights.

I just received an offer from MPH Production Company in Tyler, Texas to purchase Mineral rights for $5,250 PER NET MINERAL ACRE. According to an old thread "royalty acre" is 100% ownership of an acre leased at 1/8th. Assuming this as correct then that would amount to $10,500 per acre leased at 1/4. This is for non-producing HS acreage. Has anyone else received this offer? I'm not interested at that price, but it was higher than other unsolicited offers. It also made it clear that it was an offer to buy and not lease. I could only find one transaction by them in Bossier from a few years ago. Just wondering if they are to Encana what MC Minerals are to Chesapeake.

I'm still confused.
I have always bought or sold "minerals". Never "royalties".
And my local attorney has never differentiated between the two.
If I buy minerals, don't I get what you have, subject to any lease?
I am so damn confused, and I have done this for years. And I have always got what I bought, no questions asked.

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.

This area has suffered immense environmental degradation…
