Cripple Creek & Victor Video

Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company (CC&V) has been conducting gold mining and precious metal extraction operations in the Cripple Creek Mining District (District) since 1976.

The District has a rich and colorful mining history.  More than 24 million troy ounces of gold, along with silver, have been recovered from the District since 1890.  Most of the land on which CC&V now operates has been underground mined in the past for its high grade veins. Gold Production, Resources and Reserves
