EX-5.2

We have acted as Oklahoma counsel to Continental Resources, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (the “Company”), in connection with (i) the issuance by the Company of up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.375% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Exchange Notes”) pursuant to that certain Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) filed by the Company, Banner Pipeline Company, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (“Banner”), CLR Asset Holdings, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company (“Asset Holdings”), and The Mineral Resources Company, an Oklahoma corporation (“Mineral Resources,” and together with Banner and Asset Holdings, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), on the date hereof with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with the Exchange Notes being issued in exchange for up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 4.375% Senior Notes due 2028 issued on December 8, 2017 and the related guarantees thereof (collectively, the “Outstanding Notes”), and (ii) the Subsidiary Guarantors’ unconditional guarantees of the payment of the Exchange Notes (the “Guarantees”), which are also being registered pursuant to the Registration Statement under the Securities Act. The Outstanding Notes were issued, and the Exchange Notes will be issued, under that certain Indenture dated as of December 8, 2017 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee.

In connection with our rendering of the opinion contained herein, we have examined (a) the certificate of incorporation or articles of organization, as applicable, and the bylaws or operating agreement, as applicable, of the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, each as amended and in effect on the date hereof, (b) the Registration Statement, (c) the Indenture, and (d) the Outstanding Notes. In addition, we have (x) examined such certificates of public officials and of corporate and limited liability company officers, directors and managers, as applicable, and such other documents and matters as we have deemed necessary or appropriate,

(y) relied upon the accuracy of facts set forth in all such documents, and (z) assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, and the authenticity of the originals from which all such copies were made. In connection with this opinion, we have assumed that the Registration Statement, and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments), will have become effective and the Exchange Notes will be issued and sold in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and in the manner described in the Registration Statement.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the other qualifications and limitations stated herein, we are of the opinion that the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors are validly existing, have duly authorized, executed and delivered the Indenture and the Outstanding Notes, and have duly authorized the Exchange Notes and the Guarantees.

We are members of the bar of the State of Oklahoma. Our opinion expressed above is limited to the laws of the State of Oklahoma, and we do not express any opinion herein concerning the laws of any other jurisdiction.
