Default "split estates' conerning surface land vs mineral rights

I own the mineral rights to a "split estates" piece of Wyoming property.
The property was homesteaded in 1916 and my relatives had both surface and
mineral rights. We sold the grazing rights to a rancher and kept the
mineral rights, designated as keeping "all minerals" in the sales contract.
Recently we discovered mineralized fossils on this property. Do we have a
right to claim them as minerals according to the original contract where we
reserved this as keeping "all minerals". The owner of the surface land
contends that these mineralized fossils belong to him.
