The Crown owns all minerals in my state, including on private land. So if I strike oil (in the suburbs... lol), it won't even be mine.I'm irrationally annoyed at this extremely unlikely scenario. I think it's because the so-called Crown already possesses a bunch of stuff they shouldn't.If they showed up here to get my oil, you'd better believe I'd chase them away with this traditional chasing-away implement.

@lulu_powerfulHere in Los Angeles the deed to our property states that all rights end at 500 feet below the surface. I too am indignant. @kevinbowen

@tomjennings @lulu_powerful Then I hope that you, too, have the requisite "chasing-away implement" when The Man comes a-knockin' after you start a-drillin'.
