The distribution charge shall be 60 cents per county and is in addition to the transaction charge approved for the department during the budgetary process. The amount of the distribution charges is continuously appropriated to the department to meet expenses incurred in administering this section.

Where the leased public mineral land is located in more than one county of the state, each shall receive such proportionate amount of the sum as the area of the leased public mineral land included within the boundary of the county bears to the total area of the leased public mineral lands within the state.
