mineral deed

A mineral deed transfers all ownership rights in the assets under the surface of a tract of land—including oil, gas, coal, hydrocarbons, metals, and minerals—from the grantor (seller) to the grantee (buyer). The transfer also includes all rights to receive royalties, profits, or payments related to the assets under the surface of the land.

In Hawaii, a mineral deed is a legal document that transfers ownership rights of subsurface assets, such as oil, gas, coal, hydrocarbons, metals, and minerals, from the grantor to the grantee. This type of deed includes the transfer of rights to any royalties, profits, or payments that are derived from the extraction and sale of these subsurface assets. The specifics of executing a mineral deed in Hawaii would be governed by state property laws, which require such deeds to be in writing, include a legal description of the property, and be signed by the grantor. Additionally, to be enforceable against third parties, the deed must be recorded with the Bureau of Conveyances. It's important to note that Hawaii's unique geological characteristics and land ownership patterns may affect the relevance and regulation of mineral rights in the state. As with any legal document affecting property rights, it is advisable to consult with an attorney to ensure that the deed complies with all applicable state statutes and regulations, and accurately reflects the intentions of the parties involved.
