Troy helps us understand what mineral rights are, the differences between land rights, mineral rights, and air rights, and how to maximize the opportunities in space. Troy also discusses the operators in this asset class, strategies, and what to look out for when evaluating a mineral rights investment. Is investing in mineral rights for the long term? What are its implications to the ESG—environmental, social, and governmental? How do you vet the operators and avoid Ponzi schemes?
