Hi Laurie, the area is about 10 miles south of Center. It's called Pay Day.
I posted a discussion about this the other day it's in the main forum...called please help a landman wants us to sign a contract. And today I updated it in another discussion called update...or something to that effect. You can find it on my homepage if you're interested in reading it.
I only have 6.51 acres but for some reason it's in three different surveys. Intrepid said they all come to a point. It's the Pates Gas unit A.

Which surveys are your MR's in? I've read your other post and believe that there is probably someone here who can offer better advice than I, just have patience.

Hi Eric,...Here is the original post. I should have just posted these two together rather then making it so confusing. Their both on the featured forum at least.

I wrote this in a respone to intrepid asking where the minerals are.

Well, based on this first contract a different company gave me. This was Kaiser and they were trying to do a title cure before they sold this to Devon. It said 156.25 acres more or less Shelby County, Tx. and being the same land described as the Frst Trace containing 82 acres a part of the John King survey, A-408, and the Second Tract, containing 74 acres, a part of the W.C. Alvice Survey, A-20, and a part of the James Hinton Survey, A-289.
I guess the 6.51 acres I have are spread thru out all these Surveys. Don't you have minerals in Shelby county also? I believe these surveys are ten miles south of Center.
The first well that was spuded back in 2000 was done by Marathon. I guess that was targeting the Cotton Valley.

I think I need to do the math and put in all the variables I have...then come up with a decision. It seems Shelby county IS in Haynesvalle shale...but the landman was saying it's just not proven. I guess none of them are really proven though until they drill.
