Federal Lands

In much of the Western United States, the conduct of exploration, development and mining activities takes place on federal public lands. The ability to serve mining clients depends upon an understanding of and experience with the vast array of federal laws that pertain to such activities, and in particular, the General Mining Law and the Mineral Leasing Act. Our mining attorneys have a great deal of experience in working with mining companies on the title and operational issues that arise from those statutes.

For more information on the firm's mining experience as it pertains to operations on federal lands, please contact Randy Hubbard, Chuck Kaiser or Zach Miller.
