Comstock
|
Comstock is a producing, Nevada-based, gold and silver mining company with extensive, contiguous property in the historic Comstock and Silver City mining districts (collectively, the “Comstock District”) and is an emerging leader in sustainable, responsible mining, including concurrent and accelerated reclamations, soil sampling, voluntary airmonitoring, cultural asset protection and historical restorations. The Comstock District is located within the western portion of the Basin and Range Province of Nevada, between Reno and Carson City. The Company began acquiring properties in the Comstock District in 2003. Since then, the Company has consolidated a significant portion of the Comstock District, rezoned its properties consistent with mining uses, built an infrastructure, and brought an exploration project into production. Because of the Comstock District’s historical significance, the geology is well known and has been extensively studied by the Company, They advisors and many independent researchers. They have expanded They understanding of the geology of the project area through vigorous surface mapping, geophysical analysis, exploration drilling, drill hole logging and extensive mine development and planning, including geological level plans and cross-sectional analysis. The volume of geologic data is immense, and thus far the reliability has been excellent, particularly in the various Lucerne Mine areas. They have amassed a large library of historic data and detailed surface mapping of Comstock District properties and continue to obtain historic information from private and public sources. They use such data in conjunction with information obtained from They current mining operations, to target geologically prospective exploration areas and plan exploratory programs, including expanded surface and underground drilling. | $75K / Grant / Jun 24, 2026 | |
