Nothing on record as of October 19, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Pathfinder #2 Gas-to-Power Bitcoin Mining Site (Florence Oil Field) in Florence, Fremont County, Colorado appears in the sources this registry tracks. That is an absence in our sources rather than a finding that none exists, and local opposition often predates any coverage a national dataset would pick up.

Two gas-fired Gentec generators at the Pathfinder #2 well produce 1.2 MW. The company states a 5 MW target across its Florence leases.
Notes on the record
The coordinates are the Florence town point. The exact Pathfinder #2 well location was not sourced. The latest operator update found is from early 2025, and the current operating status after that was not verified. Planned expansion sites at the JW Powell and Kelce Court wells are not included.
