northeastern Ohio | Looking at a deed that reads as follows: ".......and known as and being all the mineral stone coal underlying the following described premises situated in the township of..........."
This deed is from 1987, so it was written in recent times. The above quote is EXACTLY the way it appears. Before and after are description of where the property is located.
My question is: what minerals do I get with this deed? I have not consulted with a lawyer yet. I've never seen the phrase "mineral stone coal" used in a deed before. A google search for the phrase has not netted me any information.
Is it all the coal? Is it one certain type of coal? Is it minerals, stone and coal? What do you as a landowner think of when you hear the phrase "mineral stone coal"? | |
