California Mineral Rights
California Mineral Rights date back to the early days of oil and gas exploration. At one point in America's history, California led the United States in oil production. California is known for its large oil fields like the Midway-Sunset field and the Kern River field. In 2008, mineral rights in California became popularized in the movie There Will Be Blood that documented the petroleum boom at the turn of the century in California. Mineral rights in CA produce significant economic contribution to the state through the oil and gas production industry.
