[Read the Mississippi guide](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/guide/mississippi/) Questions ## Straight answers for Lamar County owners What are mineral rights worth in Lamar County? It depends on the wells and units actually touching your tract, their decline, and your decimal, and in Lamar County that ranges from legacy stripper royalties to active development, so county averages mislead. We value off the actual wells and activity and show the work, free. Does Mississippi take a severance tax out of my royalty? Yes. Mississippi's severance tax is 6 percent of value at the point of production on oil and on gas, with a reduced 1.3 percent rate for horizontal wells for 30 months or until payout, and 3 percent for CO2 enhanced recovery projects. It comes off before your royalty is figured. How long do I have to answer a Mississippi pooling order? Twenty days from the order, and the penalty for missing it is severe: a nonconsenting owner who does not elect can be charged a risk fee of 300 percent of the well costs out of production. Text us the order the day it arrives and we will walk you through the election, free. What does it cost me to sell? Nothing. Berlin pays all title work, document preparation, and recording costs.
