how much does the goverment (or whomever) own of our land

[dsity]

how far out do i own....and how far deep...?

How far out? Umm... however big your lot is.

How far deep? Until you hit something valuable, then it belongs to the gubment.

 

[acemcmac]

depends on whether or not you own the mineral rights to the property....

I'm guessing you own it all the way down until you go all the way through and hit china...and obviously china owns that.

30 metres down, and as far up as you like, within reason.

In Aus anyway.

However, they can appropriate any land they like, and any time, for just & equitable compensation.

So if you found gold on your property, you'd tell and let the government have it?
