Company contacted my mom a few days ago. It's 16 acres total. We know nothing about this stuff. Just looking for info. Tia.

Definitely doesn't depend on where the land is located.

Do some research as best you can
Be sure of mineral rights
The best I can say is you should get paid for the land on the surface (to make the site), the land used to make a road to get to the site, and a percent of what is pulled out
When I was in the field in 2012, we did a land job in Carthage, TX
The owner of the land was set to make $50,000 a day by the projections of what they were supposed to pull out of the ground

Probably about $20/ac for your area, or $47 million/ac for Central Park

Without any relevant information, I'll guess $150/acre.

The guy in question had a lot more than 16 acres. This I can tell you.

Slightly under what your neighbor is willing to lease for.
