Welcome to the Primero Scalar Project.

Primero was a coal mine opened in 1901 by the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company. From the outset, the town was planned to be the model town that exemplified the best CF&I had to offer their workers. The town was short lived however, and was closed in 1928, with all buildings and equipment sold or dismantled by August 1st, 1933.
