Loving CAD 2026 Certified Mineral Roll ZIP: PDF, TXT, and CSV Member Map

Direct answer for mineral owners

On 2026-08-29, Loving CAD linked a 53,251,242-byte ZIP whose central directory contained exactly seven members: five PDFs, one TXT file, and one CSV file. The archive SHA-256 is b55aaa930f85eeb684ca5784af7280f169e1f226624369fcdc60e15b21da3ce6. This member map supports file selection and provenance, not data correctness, completeness, ownership, appraisal, value, tax, or legal conclusions.

Key takeaways for mineral owners

• The official Loving CAD records page links one exact 2026 certified mineral appraisal roll ZIP.
• The observed archive is 53,251,242 bytes and has SHA-256 b55aaa930f85eeb684ca5784af7280f169e1f226624369fcdc60e15b21da3ce6.
• Its central directory contains seven members: five PDFs, one TXT file, and one CSV file, totaling 745,817,704 uncompressed bytes.
• The archive stores member 7 first, followed by members 1 through 6; preserve stored order and filename prefixes as separate fields.
• CRC testing passed for all seven observed members, but that does not validate row meaning, file completeness, property data, or appraisal conclusions.

Archive-member boundary. This page records one Loving CAD publisher route, one exact 2026 ZIP retrieval, complete-file controls, the central-directory order, seven member names, member sizes, member CRC values, and limited rendered-PDF observations. It does not prove archive completeness beyond the observed bytes, data correctness, row parity, schema meaning, current status, ownership, title, acreage, production, royalty, appraisal accuracy, tax treatment, protest position, mineral-rights value, offer quality, transaction outcome, or legal effect. MRX provides educational information and resources only and does not buy mineral rights.

The Loving CAD Data and Records page displays 2026 Certified Mineral Appraisal Roll (Zip) and links an exact ZIP download. In the copy retrieved on 2026-08-29, the central directory contained seven members: five PDFs, one TXT file, and one CSV file.

The ZIP was 53,251,242 bytes with SHA-256 b55aaa930f85eeb684ca5784af7280f169e1f226624369fcdc60e15b21da3ce6. Its seven uncompressed member sizes totaled 745,817,704 bytes. Those controls identify one retrieval and help a researcher choose a file without opening everything. They do not validate the data inside a member.

Start with the publisher link and complete-file identity

The publisher page and the downloaded ZIP answer different questions. The page establishes the displayed link relationship. The ZIP supplies the observed archive identity and member directory.

During the 2026-08-29 review, the records page returned HTTP 200, 84,279 bytes, and SHA-256 8e835ce444d2de88915f6d07edba59cfe3198f6ebaf087d484ebac4650641b2d. The linked ZIP download completed as a 53,251,242-byte archive.

A later download can differ. Record a new date, byte count, hash, and member directory rather than overwriting this observation.

Preserve the stored member order

The archive does not begin with the filename prefixed 1. Its central directory stores the filename prefixed 7 first, then prefixes 1 through 6. That is not a reason to relabel a file or silently sort the evidence.

Stored position	Exact member name	Format	Uncompressed bytes	CRC-32
1	7. MASTER INVENTORY LISTING.PDF	PDF	1,996,679	3dc5efa1
2	1. MINERAL APPRAISAL ROLL.PDF	PDF	19,439,961	7f88484c
3	2. MINERAL FILE LAYOUT.pdf	PDF	46,370	8de2310c
4	3. MINERAL DATA FLAT TEXT FILE.TXT	TXT	306,383,377	0d3e19ff
5	4. MINERAL DATA CSV FILE.CSV	CSV	405,405,216	f0d629ce
6	5. MINERAL RECAP.PDF	PDF	4,310	2edc43e8
7	6. YR X YR APPRAISALS.PDF	PDF	12,541,791	0f113119

Preserve at least three different concepts: stored position, numeric filename prefix, and exact filename. A sorted working list can be useful, but it should be derived from the source directory and never substituted for it.

Keep PDF, TXT, and CSV roles separate

The filename extensions support a narrow format observation. They do not prove that every format carries the same rows, fields, delimiters, encodings, or meanings.

• The five PDF members are presentation documents or reports by filename. Their visible layout can be reviewed page by page.
• The TXT member is a large flat-text export by filename. Opening it in software that guesses encodings or field boundaries can change how content appears.
• The CSV member is a large comma-separated file by filename. Spreadsheet software can auto-convert identifiers, dates, long numbers, and leading zeros.
• The file-layout PDF may help interpret positions, but its presence does not establish that every described position applies correctly to both data exports.

The 2. MINERAL FILE LAYOUT.pdf member is an eight-page, unencrypted, 46,370-byte PDF with SHA-256 f0b34cc4b7a96e6cd5480f350f28554b3af72fc9cfd45959763f76d0aef1b020. Manual review of its first rendered page shows MINERAL DATA EXPORT LAYOUT and UPDATED 2/18/2026. The reviewed page-render SHA-256 is 9eaa97aaa9f96f45bbd4e50c968e0e360bbaeaaf145eccaee76d2a44d156a272.

That visible date and title are document observations. They do not prove a byte-for-byte schema match to either data member.

Separate archive integrity from data validity

All seven members passed a CRC-based unzip -t test on the observed archive. The test reported no compressed-data errors. That is useful integrity evidence for the retrieved container, but it is not a substantive review of the data.

The Loving County Appraisal District homepage supplies current public-site context. It does not validate a ZIP member or a property record. The Texas Comptroller property-tax contact page supplies routing guidance, not an interpretation of the archive.

Use a source-preserving extraction sequence

1. Start from the official records page and record the displayed link label and exact target.
2. Download into a dedicated working folder; do not overwrite an earlier controlled copy.
3. Record retrieval date, complete-file bytes, and SHA-256 before extraction.
4. List the central directory and preserve stored position, exact filename, size, and CRC separately.
5. Run a non-mutating archive test and record its result without calling it a data-validity check.
6. Extract only the member needed for the current question into a separate working-copy folder.
7. For TXT and CSV work, retain the original bytes before opening software that may infer types or normalize fields.
8. Record any encoding, delimiter, row-count, or schema mismatch as unresolved; do not silently repair it.
9. Do not publish owner, account, property, or other record-level data merely because it appeared in a public archive.
10. Stop before drawing appraisal, ownership, tax, value, offer, transaction, or legal conclusions.

Keep this page distinct from adjacent archive owners

The Karnes CAD 2026 seven-member container index owns a different county, publisher target, member set, file names, sizes, and archive hash. The Dimmit CAD 2026 ZIP archive inventory and Howard CAD 2026 16-member export index likewise own different county-specific containers.

This page owns the Loving ZIP’s unusual stored order and its exact five-PDF, one-TXT, one-CSV member map. It does not provide a general county-value guide and does not replace a property-specific record review.

The Texas CAD Directory Worksheet supplies the broader method for retaining a current publisher route separately from a downloaded artifact.

Frequently asked questions

How many files are in the Loving CAD 2026 mineral-roll ZIP?

The central directory observed on August 29, 2026 contained exactly seven members: five PDFs, one TXT file, and one CSV file.

Why does the archive list member 7 before member 1?

The stored central-directory order begins with the filename prefixed 7 and then continues with prefixes 1 through 6. Preserve stored order and numeric filename prefix separately instead of silently reordering the evidence.

Do the TXT and CSV files prove the same rows or fields?

No. Their filenames and sizes establish that two distinct members were present. Row parity, encoding, delimiter behavior, schema meaning, and semantic equivalence require separate checks.

Does a successful CRC test prove that the mineral data is correct?

No. CRC testing checks whether the observed compressed members can be read without a detected archive error. It does not validate property data, ownership, appraisal accuracy, completeness, or legal effect.

Where should a property-specific appraisal or tax question go?

Use the current Loving CAD contact route for district questions. The Texas Comptroller contact page separately explains that local appraisal and tax questions belong with the applicable local office.

Practical conclusion for mineral owners

The citation-ready answer is narrow: the Loving CAD 2026 certified mineral-roll ZIP retrieved on 2026-08-29 contained seven members in a stored order that begins with filename prefix 7, followed by prefixes 1 through 6. The observed archive includes five PDFs, one TXT file, and one CSV file. Preserve the publisher route, complete-file hash, stored order, member names, sizes, CRC values, and any later extraction choices.

Search Atlas visibility, search rankings, answer-engine retrieval, and LLM citations, if later observed, are dated distribution KPIs. They do not validate archive completeness, file meaning, property data, or any owner-specific conclusion.
