How Much Do Mineral Rights Sell For in Pennsylvania?
There is no straight and easy answer when it comes to determining mineral rights value. Mineral buying companies in Pennsylvania that claim to give you a fast, click-of-a-button offer value for your minerals are just that, a click-and-bait tactic.
Understanding how much are minerals rights worth in Pennsylvania takes time, expert knowledge of the Marcellus Appalachian Basin and Utica Shale drilling and Operator activity, and personal relationships with the mineral buyers in this area.

Selling Mineral Rights?
5 Things You Need to Know
- Never sell your minerals is no longer good advice. Sitting idly collecting royalty checks is not being a responsible mineral owner when they could be worth a lot more than your monthly royalties.
- Monthly royalty income is taxed at ordinary income levels (~39.5%). However, you can benefit from the lesser capital gains tax rate on the revenue from the sale if they were owned for more than one year.
- Owning minerals and royalties requires responsible and detailed records management.
- Minerals and royalties are treated as real property; sellers can therefore utilize the tax-deferred 1031 Exchange to purchase another property of like-kind.
- You don’t have to sell ALL of your mineral and royalty rights. You can keep a portion and sell the rest!
Minerals and royalties are assets and should be treated as an investment.
Once they start producing, they will become a depreciating asset and their value will begin to decrease.
Selling minerals and royalties should be considered when they are worth a significant amount of money;
working with a trusted industry professional who knows how to navigate the sale process is a must.
Don’t Make The #1 Mistake When Selling Minerals
Considering only one (or even two or three) offers from a mineral buyer is NOT the best way to determine what your mineral rights are worth!
Why not test a wide range of offers from many mineral-buying companies?
At Venergy, we have a 95% transaction success rate and it’s because we know that the only way to truly see how much your minerals are worth is to see what many buyers are willing to pay for them, not just a few.
MINERAL RIGHTS BUYERS
Who Buys Mineral Rights In Pennsylvania?
Mineral buying companies in Pittsburgh take into account their own buying parameters including area of interest (AOI), Operator activity, pay zone potential, and the price of oil and gas, to name a small few of the many factors that go into a buyers’ offer price for your minerals.
