submitted date unrecorded by Congress to r/title-30-MINERAL-LANDS-AND-MINING · 76 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

A law from the first session of the 38th Congress gave land to states or companies to help build roads. This section says that law does not cover mineral lands, unless it clearly says so.

No law passed during the first session of the 38th Congress that granted land to states or corporations — to help build roads or for other purposes, or to extend the deadlines on grants made before January 30, 1865 — can be read to include mineral lands. Mineral lands stay reserved for the United States in every case, unless the specific law making the grant clearly says otherwise.

No act passed at the first session of the Thirty-eighth Congress, granting lands to States or corporations to aid in the construction of roads or for other purposes, or to extend the time of grants made prior to the 30th day of January 1865 shall be so construed as to embrace mineral lands, which in all cases are reserved exclusively to the United States, unless otherwise specially provided in the act or acts making the grant.
