Publisher's Synopsis
The Extralateral Right: Shall It Be Abolished? is a book written by William Edward Colby in 1917. The book discusses the concept of the extralateral right, which refers to the right of a mining claim owner to extract minerals from a vein that extends beyond the boundaries of their claim. Colby argues that the extralateral right creates conflicts between mining claim owners and can lead to unfair exploitation of mineral resources. He suggests that the extralateral right should be abolished and replaced with a system that promotes fair and efficient use of mineral resources. The book provides a detailed analysis of the legal and practical implications of the extralateral right and offers a compelling argument for its abolition. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in mining law and the management of mineral resources.From The California Law Review, July, 1916.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
