Federal Land pack · Diligence

Turn a PLSS tract into a mining and federal-land diligence package.

Mining claims are recorded against the same land grid as leases, rights-of-way, and environmental records. Start with the tract, then review claims, federal surface management, access, wetlands, soils, wildfire, and nearby activity.

Who it's for: Mining companies, prospectors, landmen, environmental consultants, and federal-land analysts.

Workflow

Start with the location. End with evidence your team can use.

  1. 1Enter a PLSS description or location for the tract.
  2. 2Review mining claims and federal surface-management records.
  3. 3Check rights-of-way, access, wetlands, soils, wildfire, and habitat.
  4. 4Compare nearby energy or infrastructure activity.
  5. 5Export the records for the land and technical reviewers.
