Karnes CAD 2026 Certified Mineral Roll ZIP: Seven-Member Container Index

Direct answer for mineral owners

On 2026-08-29, Karnes CAD linked a 68,990,203-byte 2026 mineral-roll ZIP with SHA-256 ac15f168d168b6481b577114889fcf564636e164a2a7dd150b4fb6c918279a86. Its central directory had seven unencrypted entries totaling 995,045,211 uncompressed bytes, and its integrity test passed. No member was read. These controls identify one container; they do not validate member data or answer a property-specific question.

Key takeaways for mineral owners

• The official page displays 2026 Certified Mineral Appraisal Roll (Zip), while the exact target and response filename say KARNES CAD 2026 CERTIFIED MINERAL OPEN RECORDS.zip.
• The complete archive was 68,990,203 bytes with SHA-256 ac15f168d168b6481b577114889fcf564636e164a2a7dd150b4fb6c918279a86.
• Its central directory contained seven unencrypted members totaling 995,045,211 uncompressed bytes and no archive comment; the integrity test passed.
• Only generic container metadata was recorded. No member was extracted, opened, read, searched, sampled, or reproduced.
• Publisher provenance, a filename, a hash, member names, and a passing ZIP test do not establish data accuracy, ownership, appraisal, tax, mineral-rights value, offer quality, or legal effect.

2026 ZIP-container identity and no-member-data boundary. This page records one Karnes CAD publisher route, one exact 2026 archive target, one complete retrieval, generic central-directory metadata, and one container integrity result. It does not extract or read a member; reproduce a row, cell, account, person, operator, lease, owner, or property; authenticate a record; establish ownership, title, acreage, production, royalty, appraisal, tax, protest, mineral-rights value, offer quality, transaction result, or legal effect; or recommend a sale. MRX provides educational information and resources only and does not buy mineral rights.

The official Karnes CAD Data and Records page supplied a precise answer on 2026-08-29: its visible 2026 Certified Mineral Appraisal Roll (Zip) link points to 1785188671_KARNES CAD 2026 CERTIFIED MINERAL OPEN RECORDS.zip. The direct response returned that same filename.

The retrieved archive was 68,990,203 bytes with SHA-256 ac15f168d168b6481b577114889fcf564636e164a2a7dd150b4fb6c918279a86. Its central directory contained seven unencrypted members totaling 995,045,211 uncompressed bytes, and unzip -t passed. Those controls identify one retrieved container. They do not validate the member contents or answer a property-specific question.

Separate each evidence layer

A publisher label, target URL, response filename, retrieved binary, central directory, and integrity result answer different questions. Keep them separate so one observation is not made to carry another source’s burden.

Claim ID	Evidence label	Source role	What the source supports
C270-01	VERIFIED-OBSERVATION	Karnes CAD publisher page	The page displays a 2026 Certified Mineral Appraisal Roll ZIP link.
C270-02	VERIFIED-OBSERVATION	Exact link target	The target names 1785188671_KARNES CAD 2026 CERTIFIED MINERAL OPEN RECORDS.zip.
C270-03	VERIFIED-OBSERVATION	Direct archive HTTP response	HTTP 200, MIME, bytes, and the matching Content-Disposition filename.
C270-04	VERIFIED-OBSERVATION	Complete retrieved archive	The complete-file SHA-256 identifies the recorded bytes.
C270-05	VERIFIED-OBSERVATION	ZIP central directory	Seven generic member names, uncompressed sizes, no encryption, and no archive comment.
C270-06	NON-VALIDATING	unzip -t	All seven stored members passed the archive test.
C270-07	ROUTING-ONLY	Texas Comptroller contact page	Property-specific appraisal and tax questions belong with the applicable local office.

This layered model improves retrieval clarity without enlarging the claim. The page label establishes what a publisher displayed. The target and response establish a route and response state. The hash identifies one byte sequence. The central directory describes a container. None of those observations establishes that a member is accurate, complete, current, applicable, or legally controlling.

Record the exact 2026 archive controls

The exact Karnes CAD 2026 Certified Mineral Open Records ZIP returned these controls:

File control	Recorded value
Retrieval date	2026-08-29
HTTP result	200
Content type	application/zip
Content-Disposition filename	1785188671_KARNES CAD 2026 CERTIFIED MINERAL OPEN RECORDS.zip
Complete-file size	68,990,203 bytes
Complete-file SHA-256	ac15f168d168b6481b577114889fcf564636e164a2a7dd150b4fb6c918279a86
Container form	Single-disk ZIP, no archive comment
Encryption observed	None in the seven central-directory entries
Integrity test	Passed for all seven members

A later download with a different target, response filename, byte count, or hash is a different observed source state. It should not be silently substituted for this one.

Preserve the seven-member inventory without opening it

The central directory supplies generic filenames and uncompressed sizes without requiring member extraction or content access:

Central-directory order	Exact member name	Uncompressed bytes
1	7. MASTER INVENTORY LISTING.PDF	1,325,951
2	1. MINERAL APPRAISAL ROLL.PDF	27,627,894
3	2. MINERAL FILE LAYOUT.pdf	46,370
4	3. MINERAL DATA FLAT TEXT FILE.TXT	411,527,923
5	4. MINERAL DATA CSV FILE.CSV	544,525,871
6	5. MINERAL RECAP.PDF	7,538
7	6. YR X YR APPRAISALS.PDF	9,983,664
Total	Seven members	995,045,211

The stored order begins with the name prefixed 7. and continues with names prefixed 1. through 6.. The third extension appears as lowercase .pdf; the other PDF extensions are uppercase. This index preserves those observations exactly. It does not reorder or normalize them to imply publisher intent.

No member was extracted, opened, read, searched, sampled, reproduced, or matched. A filename that includes words such as APPRAISAL ROLL, DATA, RECAP, or APPRAISALS is still only a filename in this job. It is not evidence for a row, owner, tract, account, value, or outcome.

Treat the integrity result as non-validating

The complete archive passed unzip -t: the tool reported each of the seven stored members as OK and detected no compressed-data error. That is a narrow container-integrity observation labeled NON-VALIDATING.

It does not prove:

• that every expected record is present;
• that a member is accurate, current, complete, or applicable;
• that an account belongs to a named owner or property;
• that a member is the controlling ownership, title, appraisal, or tax record;
• that mineral-rights value, offer quality, or transaction readiness follows.

The archive itself supports its container state. The Karnes CAD homepage supports the current public-site identity, not the truth of every archive record. The Texas Comptroller property-tax contact page routes local appraisal and tax questions; it does not interpret this ZIP.

Keep the 2026 job distinct from the 2025 record

The Karnes CAD 2025 Corrected ZIP identity check owns a different year’s target and response filename, including the observed word Corrected, a different complete-file size and hash, and different member sizes. This page does not extend that word or those bytes into 2026.

The Howard CAD 2026 16-member PACS export container index owns a different county, publisher, URL, 16-member inventory, and PACS export state. Its archive facts are not Karnes evidence.

The Texas CAD Directory Worksheet provides the broader publisher-route method. Use it to keep publisher identity, exact target, retrieval evidence, and later property-specific work in separate lanes.

Reproduce only the source-control job

1. Start on the official publisher page.
2. Record the displayed link label exactly.
3. Preserve the exact target and response filename separately.
4. Record the retrieval date, HTTP result, MIME, and complete-file bytes.
5. Hash the complete archive before any inventory work.
6. Record only generic central-directory metadata.
7. Run a container integrity check and label it non-validating.
8. Stop before extraction, row access, matching, interpretation, or property inference.
9. Recheck the official route if any target, filename, byte count, or hash changes.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Karnes CAD page call the 2026 mineral-roll download?

The visible link says 2026 Certified Mineral Appraisal Roll (Zip). The exact target and HTTP Content-Disposition filename say KARNES CAD 2026 CERTIFIED MINERAL OPEN RECORDS.zip.

How many members were in the retrieved 2026 ZIP?

The central directory contained seven unencrypted members totaling 995,045,211 uncompressed bytes. This page records only their names, order, and sizes.

Were any members opened or searched?

No. The job stops at complete-file retrieval, generic central-directory metadata, and a container integrity test.

Does the passing integrity test validate the data?

No. It shows that the retrieved archive passed the tool check against its stored ZIP structure and CRC values. It does not validate completeness, accuracy, currency, applicability, or legal effect.

Can the container index identify an owner or determine mineral-rights value?

No. Owner, title, acreage, appraisal, tax, production, royalty, valuation, offer, and transaction questions require their own controlling evidence and qualified review.

Practical conclusion for mineral owners

The reproducible answer is narrow: on 2026-08-29, Karnes CAD displayed a 2026 certified mineral appraisal roll ZIP link whose exact target and response filename identify a 68,990,203-byte archive. The recorded SHA-256, seven unencrypted central-directory entries, 995,045,211 aggregate uncompressed bytes, and passing integrity test identify one container state. Preserve that identity, then stop before treating container metadata as validated member data or a property-specific conclusion.

Search Atlas visibility, search rankings, answer-engine retrieval, and LLM citations, if later observed, are dated distribution KPIs. They do not validate the archive, its members, or any substantive claim on this page.
