2025 Mid-Year Minerals Market Outlook: What’s moving the market next?

A look at how M&A, rates and volatility are reshaping this sector

byEnverus

AUSTIN, Texas (July 8, 2025) — As shifting interest rates, commodity volatility, capital constraints and rising consolidation redefine the minerals and royalties market, Enverus invites journalists and industry professionals to attend its “2025 Mid-Year Minerals Market Outlook” webinar at 1:00 p.m. CT on July 15, 2025.

This virtual event will deliver exclusive insights from Enverus experts on the key factors shaping the second half of the year—and what they mean for mineral owners, managers and investors. From M&A trends to pricing signals, this briefing equips decision-makers with data-driven intelligence and actionable strategies.

Customers who utilize Enverus’ solutions regularly speak out about their benefits. “As mineral rights become increasingly fractionalized, education and transparency are key, especially for owners who lack basic knowledge,” notes Jake Dobkins, Director of Acquisitions & Divestment at Tower Rock Oil & Gas.

“Thanks to such invaluable Enverus tools as maps, DI workspaces, well lists and DOI confirmation via Energy Link, we can successfully educate owners. Without these tools, our mission to provide clarity simply wouldn’t be possible.”

What to expect:

  • The macroeconomic signals driving mineral pricing, transactions and valuations
  • Latest M&A trends and how upstream consolidation is impacting mineral assets
  • Hold, sell or buy? A data-backed framework for making smarter decisions
  • Strategic insights for navigating a fast-changing energy landscape
