The archive beneath the surface · Austin, Texas
Sell mineral rights with a clear, written valuation. Whether the interest was inherited or held for years, Double Fraction Minerals researches the record, explains the value, and gives you room to decide.
A practical first step
Start with whatever paperwork you have, or none at all. A county and a way to reach you are enough to begin.
A direct buyer, not a broker
We are an Austin family office that has purchased minerals and royalties since 2013. We buy with our own capital and hold for the long term.
That structure keeps the conversation close to the people making the decision. It also means an owner can ask how an interest was evaluated, what remains subject to title, and exactly what the agreement transfers.
Property, production, market and title inputs are explained in plain language so you can compare the reasoning—not just the headline.
See how valuation works →No broker commission and no need to find another buyer before funding. The proposed purchaser and the closing path are identified from the start.
Understand the sale process →Sell all, sell part, or hold. We can explain the tradeoffs without pretending every owner should reach the same answer.
Explore a partial sale →A four-step process
County, operator, check stub, deed or division order.
We review ownership records, production and relevant state data.
The interest, price, timing and assumptions are stated in writing.
If you accept, documents and funding follow the agreed closing terms.
Owner feedback
The details change from tract to tract. The standard should not: clear communication, a written offer, and enough room to make a considered decision.
“Double Fraction made selling my mineral rights simple and straightforward. They offered a fair price and closed quickly. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.”
Three legitimate choices
A useful valuation puts a real number beside each choice. The right answer is the one that fits what you need now and what you want to keep.
Owner starter guides

How NDCC § 61-33.1, OHWM surveys, and title curative requirements affect Bakken mineral owners with royalties suspended along Lake Sakakawea.

How Louisiana Mineral Code Articles 29 and 87 treat drilling operations differently, and why an unproductive well cannot save a severed royalty interest.

When an operator forms a drilling unit over part of your Louisiana tract, unit production can split your servitude prescription under RS 31:37.
Questions worth asking
Short answers first, with deeper guides when the details matter.
Value depends on location, production history, decline, lease terms, nearby drilling, commodity prices and the exact interest owned. We provide a written valuation that explains the important inputs rather than relying on a flat per-acre number.
A check stub, division order, deed, tax statement, lease, or simply a county and operator name can be enough to start. If the interest was inherited, probate and estate documents may also help establish the chain of title.
Compare more than the headline price. Confirm the interest being purchased, title-defect language, closing deadline, funding method, reservations, assignment rights and recording responsibility. A credible buyer should explain the valuation and encourage careful review.
Yes. Many owners begin with incomplete records. A name, county, old address, check stub or division order gives us a practical starting point for ownership research.
No. You may sell all, sell a defined portion, sell selected tracts, or hold. A partial sale can create liquidity while preserving some future ownership.
There is no valuation fee and no buyer commission. If a transaction proceeds, the written agreement should state who pays preparation, closing and recording costs.
Where we buy
Twenty-two states, and no two alike. Each has its own basins, its own mineral statutes and its own courthouse records, and each has a page with what we have reviewed there. Choose a state on the map or from the list.
