This company is fabulous! I dealt with a real person right away(no automated machines), very friendly and very helpful! It was so easy to deal with this company and it took a very stressful situation in my life off my shoulders in a very timely matter.

Holly with Blue Flame Minerals was so hospitable and knowledgeable!! She explained every detail and answered all of my questions without making me feel pressured. I felt confident going forward thanks to her. I would do business with her and Blue Flame Minerals again.

Most people start by asking, “When should I sell my mineral rights?” But in our experience, a better question is, “When does it make sense to keep them?” It’s a small shift in thinking – but it leads to smarter decisions and, often, more money in your pocket because everyone’s situation is uniquely theirs.
We’ve helped hundreds of mineral owners make sense of these complex situations. From sharing industry knowledge to guiding you through tax-saving federal programs, we’re here to simplify the process for you. Our team builds custom strategies based on your ownership, asset type, tax situation, and long-term goals – so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
“We don’t just help you decide if you should hold—we help you know why.”
We always encourage our clients to make the best decisions for themselves. And it’s not always in their best interest to simply squat on their mineral rights, hoping for a big windfall “someday.” However, there are definitely times when it makes sense to simply hold onto your assets to create a stronger legacy for your family. Minerals appreciate and decline based on countless factors. Our process and our experience give us insight into when we buy and when we sell because we’re owners, too. And we share all of this information with you. The important thing is to know why you’re holding because doing nothing can work in the short term, but it doesn’t always create a lasting legacy.


“Selling doesn’t mean letting go of your legacy. It can be the way to fund it.”
If you’re looking to accelerate your control over this asset and increase your ability to access other investment opportunities or pay less taxes, selling could be your best bet. Both producing and non-producing minerals can be sold, and we’ll help you understand how that affects you. Like you’ll hear us repeat, there are numerous factors that play into the right time to sell. Proven acreage that isn’t fully developed. Operators filing for permits in your area. Lots of things come together to create the most profitable time to sell. We make sure you have all this information at your disposal.
“Unleased minerals are underperforming assets. Leasing can bring them to life.”
Leasing is a great option for setting yourself up to receive royalty income when and if wells are drilled. If your mineral rights are unleased, they could be underutilized assets because if no one is drilling, you are not receiving any royalties. For an owner, leasing is actually a fairly simple process. Once you reach an agreement with an operator, you’ll receive a certain amount of money per acre upfront and a negotiated percentage in royalties going forward. The operator is required to start producing within a specific term, or the owner can go out on the open market again and negotiate a new lease with a new operator. Once a well is drilled and comes online, the lease is held by production, and the option for future leasing is no longer available.


The last thing you want as a mineral owner is to make a decision that affects your legacy in a negative way. Let’s take a look at what you’ve got, give you an honest assessment, and share all your options with you – no strings attached. We’re not here to make a decision for you. We’re here to help you make the best one.
