Purpose-built land and title services for hard-rock, ISR (in-situ recovery), and BLM-administered uranium and mining projects — mining claim title research, BLM MLRS claims research, GIS-based claim and wellfield mapping, and the state-level permitting layer that governs each track. The same landman rigor built over 15 years in oil & gas, applied to a niche most land companies don't cover in depth.
Chain-of-title work for unpatented lode and placer claims, built on BLM's Mineral & Land Records System (MLRS) and the General Mining Law of 1872.
Mining claim title research & ownership verification on unpatented lode and placer claims
BLM MLRS claims research — status, maintenance-fee history, and legal description verification
GIS-based claim mapping against BLM Mineral & Land Records System (MLRS) data and PLSS legal descriptions
Claim location under the General Mining Law of 1872 framework, including recordation with BLM and the county
BLM claim staking, monumentation & filing — a direct extension of years spent on field data collection and producing maps for federal land projects across the West
Assessment-work and annual maintenance-fee tracking to keep a claim block in good standing
ISR wellfields sit on private or state trust land outside BLM's claim system entirely — a different title and permitting track from hard-rock work.
Land and mineral lease title work for ISR uranium wellfield projects, including private and state trust land
State trust land leasing support — a different process than BLM or private-lease practice
Working familiarity with the state-level permitting layer that governs ISR operations — UIC/aquifer exemption permits and state radiation-control agencies
GIS-based wellfield and lease-area mapping
Hard-rock claims and ISR wellfields run on two different regulatory frameworks entirely — one under the century-old Mining Law of 1872, the other under state UIC and radiation-control permitting. Most land services firms are built around one or the other, if they touch mining land work at all.
Fifteen years of oil & gas landman title work, plus hands-on GIS mapping and years of field data collection and boundary-location experience across the West, is what makes covering both tracks — plus the chain-of-title work uranium projects add on top — possible under one roof.
The same field and land-management background that supports claim work, applied to forestry, habitat, and mitigation projects — where the land/title, forestry, and mapping combination is hardest to find elsewhere.
Forestry & vegetation management — inventory, harvesting, insect & disease control, hazardous fuel reduction, and prescribed burning
Timberland & forestry-adjacent land management, including short- and long-term action plans aligned with client needs
Mitigation banking & habitat project due diligence, including the first-ever carbon offset project on private land in Montana
GIS-based ownership & boundary mapping, produced in-house rather than outsourced
Mining and uranium land work is typically structured under a Master Service Agreement, with individual assignments issued as work orders or statements of work — the same framework used across the oil & gas and right-of-way practice. Billing runs day-rate for claim title research and GIS mapping, or per-claim / per-instrument for defined-scope campaigns. Forestry, habitat, and mitigation work is more often a fee-for-service contract or scope letter, especially on grant- or philanthropy-backed projects.
Standard insurance is in place — General Liability, Workers' Comp, Auto, and Errors & Omissions — with certificates available on request.
