Bureau of Land Management, Interior. 

# ACTION:

Notice of minerals segregation. 

# SUMMARY:

                        The private lands described in this notice aggregating approximately 950 acres, are segregated and made unavailable for filings under the general mining laws and the mineral leasing laws to determine their suitability for conveyance of the reserved mineral interest pursuant to section 209 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of October 21, 1976.                               ( print page 21011)    

The mineral interest will be conveyed in whole or in part upon favorable mineral examination. 

The purpose is to allow consolidation of surface and subsurface of minerals ownership where there are no known mineral values or in those instances where the reservation interferes with or precludes appropriate nonmineral development and such development is a more beneficial use of the land than the mineral development.
