+**Surface Rights** define the legal control over the earth's visible layer, distinct from its hidden depths. This dominion grants the owner use of the [Land](/wiki/land) for structures and cultivation, but is often separate from [Mineral Rights](/wiki/mineral_rights) or what exists far above. It carves out a fundamental boundary in ownership.
