Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 31 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Minerals have been defined as substances having a value separable from that of the soil in which they are located. Another test for determining whether a substance is a mineral requires that the substance have a definite chemical composition by which it can easily be recognized. Yet another test determines that substances which are minerals within the scientific, geological, and practical meanings of the term constitute minerals within the purview of a clause reserving all minerals.”
