Raleigh, Mize, Taylorsville: we buy minerals and royalties throughout Smith County, in the Interior Salt Basin.
Smith County is small-operator country: fewer than a hundred wells, most of them productive, most of them paying families in Raleigh, Mize, and Taylorsville who inherited the interest from a parent who leased in the 1960s.
What produces here. Smith County's 96 wells produced 70,829 barrels of oil and 109 million cubic feet of gas in October 2025 from Raleigh, Trenton, Stampede, Oakhay Creek, and Tallahala Creek. The operators you will see on checks and in the county records include Tellus Operating Group, Venture Oil and Gas, Pruet Production, Aria Operating, and Mize Energy Producers.
Whatever you own here, producing royalties, non-producing acreage, or an inherited fraction split among family, we will identify it from whatever paperwork you have, value it off the actual wells and activity, and show you the reasoning with the offer. Free, no obligation, and no pressure: if keeping it is the right answer, we will say so. Inherited it? Start with inherited mineral rights in Mississippi.

County totals. Source: Enverus, as of 2026-11-02. Rigs are currently active; permits are those approved in the last 90 days; completions are wells reporting first production in the last 90 days, which lags by state. A zero does not mean nothing is happening, only that nothing was reported in that window. Activity like this is exactly what moves mineral value. If it is happening near you, find out what your interest is worth before you take anyone's offer.
