to my understanding anything that lies below your property you own.. minerals most definately... oil can be tricky thou if the oil is under your property and someone elses property then you both own it most oil companies would pump the oil and give you royalty checks for the oil... and that goes for all whos land is located above the oil...

If it is fee simple, or if the title withholds mineral rights, etc. Some deed give you mineral rights on the property but not building rights.

Who owns the oil resources in the US?
Every acre of land has "mineral rights", that is, the ownership of any and all minerals under the surface of the land. Some own land that has the mineral rights, and in some cases the mineral rights have been sold off in earlier years. A lot of mineral rights are owned by oil companies and a lot are owned by individuals and a lot are owned by state governments and a lot by the federal government. Gathering up these "mineral rights" is the job of Petroleum Land Specialists, some of which work for oil companies and some of which are independent.
In West Virginia does the owner of a property's mineral right have to notify the property owner before he sales them?
If the mineral rights have been severed from the property and the owner of the mineral rights does not own the property then there is no need to notify the property owner. It's possible to own the mineral rights and not own the property. That would be called the "mineral estate". The owner of the property if different than the mineral owner would be the owner of the "property estate". Being the "mineral estate" owner gives you the same rights as being a "property owner". You can do as you wish with your mineral interests. Only time there is a need to notify the property owner is if any leasing will be going on. Hope this helps.
