Crown Mineral Tenure: Metallic, Coal, and Ammonite Agreements
Alberta's Crown mineral tenure - metallic, coal, and ammonite shell agreements - with target substance and holder, surfaced as a dedicated map layer and on the parcel report.
What it is
Alongside petroleum and natural gas, Alberta grants Crown mineral tenure for solid minerals. Township Canada carries three categories published through the Alberta Energy Agreements (AMI) service: metallic minerals, coal, and ammonite shell. The polygons refresh weekly, the same cadence as PNG tenure.
What it carries
Each agreement carries its disposition number, mineral category (metallic, coal, or ammonite), disposition type, holder name, status, target substance for metallic leases, coal category where applicable, and expiry where tracked. We compute the share of each Legal Subdivision the agreement covers.
Coverage and refresh
We carry close to 2,000 mineral agreements in Alberta - roughly 1,000 metallic, 900 coal, and 80 ammonite. Metallic target substances range across limestone, iron, uranium, precious stone, sandstone, salt, granite, and more. Refreshed weekly.

How Township Canada shows it
Mineral tenure has its own Mineral Tenure map layer (Energy Bundle) plus a label layer. The minerals preset colours metallic leases by target substance; the tenure preset shows PNG and mineral dispositions together by days-to-expiry. On the parcel report, mineral agreements appear in the tenure card alongside PNG dispositions.
