Comstock Mining Launches Geophysical Surveys of the Southern Comstock District Dayton Resource Area and Spring Valley Exploration Targets

VIRGINIA CITY, Nev., Sept. 22, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Comstock Mining Inc. (the "Company") (NYSE:LODE) announced today that Geotech Ltd. ("Geotech") of Aurora, Canada, began conducting the previously announced airborne geophysical surveys last weekend, including the Dayton resource area, adjacent to Silver City, NV and the contiguous Spring Valley exploration targets all the way to Hwy 50.



Geotech launched its proprietary Versatile Time-Domain Electromagnetic ("VTEM") geophysical system on Saturday, September 19, 2020, once visibility improved as smoke from the California fires cleared, and plans to complete the survey, by the end of September. The Company expects preliminary scans becoming available by mid-October, and extensive three-dimensional interpreted results later in the fourth quarter.
