Thank you Mr. Briscoe for your excellent response. 

I take from your response that the claims you are interested in are not in the same area as Bears Ears, but in a geographically similar area that was not affected by this land grab. 

"The uranium projects we have been looking at are in the same geologic environment that exists in the Bears Ears national monument. In addition, there is coal potential, roll front copper deposits, perhaps roll front silver/gold and carbonaceous fertilizer of a particular type which is sold at a very high price."

Regardless, it is way past time to legislatively curtail the Antiquities Act that allows radical leftists to steal vast areas of private and state land (and waters) on a whim.  Not only is it really Constitutionally questionable on it's face (no Federal authority in the Constitution for this sort of activity), but the way it is done can be viewed as a violation of the "Takings" clause of the constitution.
