In this month’s Mineral Rights News Episode for February 2022, we discuss how mining the minerals required for the green energy revolution is putting a tribe in a tough spot, Colorado releases first annual report of State’s Oil, Natural Gas Emissions (hint: they aren’t the biggest emitters), and a new crowd-funding model for investing in oil and natural gas.

As always, Justin Williams joins me to provide the individual mineral owner perspective and we discuss our respective takes on each story to help you keep tabs on the latest happenings in the world of minerals and royalties.
