Answers
Yes that's true, legally he own it all the way down to the core of the earth.
True. If you own the property, you own everything under it including the mineral rights. If someone wants to use the subsurface, they would normally have to pay you for an "easement" to do so.

Look up Robert A. Heinlein's short story, "The Man Who Sold the Moon," for an idea of who owns the airspace over your land. It is included in the anthology "The Past THrough Tomorrow."
what? are you in an idiot? yea, you own china dude.
If you own enough land, you own the mineral rights, but no, not all the way to China!!!!And hey, who says China is exactly under you? What if the other side is right under an ocean and you drill and the whole darn ocean starts heading here?.......There, did I make you laugh yet?
