摘要

David and Marjorie George ("Georges") appeal from a summary judgment quieting title to gravel, clay, and scoria in Rosalie Veeder ("Veeder"). Veeder's predecessors in interest receive title to the disputed land in a warranty deed dated September 16, 1970, from the Georges, who reserve "an undivided 100% (all) interest in and to all of the Oil, Gas and other minerals in and under and that may be produced from the above described land. . .." The 1970 deed makes no specific mention of gravel, clay or scoria. Subsequently the Georges claim an interest in the scoria and institute a quiet title action against Veeder. Veeder answers and counterclaims, seeking dismissal of the complaint, and to quiet title to the gravel, clay and scoria in her name. The Georges then seek reformation of the deed to include a reservation of gravel, clay and scoria. The trial court holds in favor of Veeder. Held: affirmed. On the issue of reformation the court finds that a deed cannot be reformed unless the moving party shows by clear and convincing evidence that the instrument does not reflect the parties' intent. In the present case the court finds that the Georges have not met this burden and thus the deed cannot be reformed. The court also looks to past decisions relating to the scope of the grant or reservation of "minerals" in a warranty deed and finds that such a reservation does not include gravel, clay and scoria. The court lists various reasons for this including their relative lack of value compared to other minerals as well as the fact that their extraction requires surface mining, resulting in significant damage to the surface. The court then extends its prior case law to encompass deeds that refer to "other minerals," as in the instant case.
