Thanks for your help David.
1. So you are saying that I am eligible for the 15% depletion even though I am just one of about 600 mineral rights owners and not an actual land owner?
2. Also the path that I am taken to for the $9 of interest has me filling out a Schedule B. I have nowhere near $1500 in interest to report, so do I really have to fill out that Schedule for $9, or can I just add it to my interest already reported on line 2b of my 1040?
thanks again!
