Victor-American Fuel Company, also styled as the Victor Fuel Company, was a coal mining company, primarily focused on operations in the US states of Colorado and New Mexico during the first half of the Twentieth Century. Prior to a 1909 reorganization, the business was known as the American Fuel Company. Behind the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, the Victor-American Fuel Company was the second-largest coal company in the state and the wealthiest owned by Coloradans, during the first decades of the 20th century. During the 1913-1914 Colorado Coalfield War, strikebreakers and mine guards working for Victor-American that had been hired in response to the United Mine Workers of America-led labor uprising were targeted in attacks.
