<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The Non-Crown Mineral Ownership dataset represents land under which any party other than the Province of Alberta holds the mineral rights. This data includes freehold mineral rights as well as mineral rights held by the federal government for National Parks, Indian Reserves, and Surrendered Indian Reserves.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>While Alberta has surface rights owners and mineral rights owners, some individuals or organizations may own rights to both. Surface rights owners own the surface and substances such as sand and gravel, but not the minerals. The company or individual who owns the mineral rights owns all mineral substances found on and under the property. There are often different surface and mineral owners on the same land. The mineral owner has the right to explore for and recover the minerals but at the same time must do this in a reasonable manner so as to not significantly affect use of the surface. Mineral ownership is defined in detail in the Mines and Minerals Act, and its associated regulations. Mineral rights are registered in accordance with the Land Titles Act.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The data has been compiled and approved by Alberta Energy and Minerals up to the time period of content date.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
