Subd. 2. Disposition of receipts. All money received from leases granted under this section shall be credited to the fund to which the leased land belongs and all royalties and proceeds which shall be received by the state for any material stockpiled or stored thereon and later removed shall be credited on the state mineral lease covering the lands from which such ore was originally taken.
