MRP 346: Listener Questions August 2026
The Mineral Rights Podcast: Mineral Rights | Royalties | Oil and Gas | Matt Sands
Can an adopted grandchild inherit mineral rights the same way a biological grandchild can? Will your Permian Basin lease ever see a second bench developed, or is one horizontal target all you're going to get? And why does the number on your royalty check almost never match the production volume you pulled from the state's own database? This month's listener questions episode tackles all three, plus a practical walkthrough of how operators are stacking benches in the Permian and what that means for the long-term value of your minerals. Whether you're trying to untangle an inheritance question, decide between a working interest and a royalty interest, or just make sense of the numbers on your check, this episode is here to help you get you unstuck.
As always, you can find links to additional resources mentioned in this episode in the show notes at mineralrightspodcast.com.
