Mineral Deposits in Texas
Mineral deposits are not uncommon in Texas, with 4 of the top 10 oil fields in the nation residing within its borders. Texans are accustomed to seeing large oilrigs pumping away, but with U.S. oil production predicted to drop in 2016, it is important to know whether you reside within one of the more profitable areas for drilling if you are looking to put your mineral rights up for sale.
Largest Mineral Deposits in Texas
While Texas is one of the nation’s leading producers of crude oil and natural gas, there are many different shales and deposits spread throughout the state each, with its owns characteristics and many being more advantageous than others. Below are just a few of the largest and most profitable fields in Texas:
- Permian Basin: Located near west Texas, this basin has been drilled for over 90 years and is considered one of the most stable deposits in the state. At approximately 250 miles wide and 300 long, it is the only deposit that has not reported a decline in production in recent years.
- Eagle Ford Shale: With 37 oil rigs currently drilling at this deposit, the Eagle Ford Shale located in south Texas was discovered in 2008. With new fracking innovations this shale is now able to be more efficient and accessible than ever before.
- Barnett Shale: This large central Texas shale is producing over 30% of the state’s total natural gas despite being located under the heavily populated DFW metropolitan area.
With the wild fluctuations in oil prices, selling mineral rights at the wrong time can result in a lot of possible lost income. Therefore, it’s important for individuals hoping to sell their mineral rights to work with someone who understands how these kinds of deals work.

The Mineral Auction provided me with an invaluable exit strategy when selling a mineral interest that one of my clients had. I’d recommend them to anyone who has the need to create some liquidity.
Blake is excellent. We have used him in numerous family issues and find him always direct and very helpful. He is incredibly informed and our go-to guy.
Blake and I have worked on several deals together and they have always gone off without a hitch. Both parties leave the table satisfied. Highly recommended!
Blake hit it out of the park! He did everything he said he would do, and then some. He far exceeded our expectations within a day! If you are concerned about paying commission or being restricted to a broker – don’t be. He will max out the value of your minerals. I tried to negotiate with several buyers on my own and didn’t come within the same universe.
Blake Bergstrom helped my family negotiate the sale of our mineral rights for our small ranch outside of San Antonio. I found Blake to be very knowledgable about whole process and took the time to answer all our questions. We were very satisified with the transaction and have already recommended Blake and The Mineral Auction to some our friends. Thanks again.
I have mineral rights to natural gas and Blake was excellent in his advice regarding my situation. Thanks a lot for your help!
