My wife and I have a 1099-misc for rent on mineral rights. We don't own the land but just have the rights to the minerals below ground. How do I classify this?

If mineral rights have been separated, you do not own the land, only access to develop the mineral rights.

You generally report royalties in Part I of Schedule E (Form 1040). Oil, gas, and minerals. Royalty income from oil, gas, and mineral properties is the amount you receive when natural resources are extracted from your property.

Box 2 of Form 1099-MISC is reserved for tax reporting related to royalty payments.Part I of Schedule E (Form 1040){select royalty for this] Link to "investment"at the last screen of the 1099-misc section..

 Review the Schedule E in Turbotax after entering through the 1099 MISC incomes then you can enter things like production taxes, mineral property taxes, production costs, depletion, etc.["More expenses"  radio button generally on depletion screen.]
