I am Christian Albright, a father of two & a self-employed mechanic based in Arvada, Colorado. I’m a life-long skateboarder and have always maintained a small mineral collection but it wasn’t until 2022, during covid, when I started researching where to mine specimens in my home state of Colorado. Fast forward a few weeks and it was on! I started prospecting the local national forest access of the Pikes Peak Batholith and that has been my main hunting grounds since. I have had some great times and I’ve met some great people along the way. Recently, I filed for my first mining claim “Forgotten Ridge” with a good buddy of mine. We can’t wait to show the world what we find!
