You see these counties fall in the Piedmont Physiographic Province characterized by residual soils (sandy clays to clayey sands formed by the in-situ chemical and physical weathering of the underlying bedrock) overlaying metamorphic rocks such as granitic schist and gneiss. Because of the original igneous and metamorphic nature of the crystalline bedrock there is no potential for hydrocarbon formation. You see hydrocarbon formation can only occur under certain conditions in sedimentary rocks. You need sufficient organic mass to start with which is not possible in an igneous rock setting.

A more plausible scenario would be further south in the Coastal Plain Physiographic Province in which case my only lament would be if I didn't own the mineral rights. Drill baby drill!!!
