30 U.S.C. § 193 — Disposition of deposits of coal, and so forth

submitted 106 years ago by ch. 85 to r/title-30-MINERAL-LANDS-AND-MINING · 94 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Coal, phosphate, sodium, potassium, oil, oil shale, and gas deposits can only be sold or leased the way this chapter says. This includes certain coal claims near Lander, Wyoming. But claims that already existed on February 25, 1920, follow the old rules instead.

Deposits of coal, phosphate, sodium, potassium, oil, oil shale, and gas — found in land valuable for these minerals — can only be sold, leased, or otherwise disposed of in the way this chapter allows. This includes the land and deposits covered by coal entries numbered 18 to 49 near Lander, Wyoming. There are two exceptions. First, sections 1716 and 1719 of title 43 still apply. Second, any valid claim that already existed on February 25, 1920, and that has been kept up under the laws it was started under, can still be completed (including through discovery) under those original laws.
