Vision
At Lone Wolf Prospecting LLC, I take pride in handcrafting jewelry using as many local Colorado materials as possible in my work. All minerals are mined by myself and friends in the state of Colorado. All my jewelry is hand crafted by myself or local artisans from the state of Colorado. All of my sterling silver necklaces and settings are sourced from the USA.

Mt. Antero 2020-2025
The 2025 mining season is complete. I found a pocket of aquamarine I named the "green dream" pocket this season. I will be making those pieces available online when as I make them. The sherry topaz specimens I have available from "Kara's" pocket are online now. Pictures of some of the matrix specimens from "Kara's" pocket are in the gallery. The matrix piece combos with topaz, feldspar, muscovite and bertrandite are one of a kind.
