should be written in easement--- if it is only easement and you did not transfer title to surface then you still own land and pay property tax -- minerals are still owned by you.

If you are talking about the public road dedication, the local government will claim this land and the minerals. Most people don't realize that the area between the curb and to the far edge of the sidewalk (sometimes even furthr) is usually part of the road ROW. this is dedicated to the public when a subdivision plat is filed. The minerals go with this dedication.

 

Of course it all depends, you would have to look at the plat.
