Comstock Announces Complete Results Of East-side Drilling
All Holes Encountered Lengthy Intervals of Significant Mineralization
VIRGINIA CITY, Nev., Nov. 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Comstock Mining Inc. (the "Company" or "Comstock") (NYSE MKT: LODE) announced the results for the final ten holes in its initial step-out drilling program, in the East-side of the Company's Lucerne Resource Area (the "Lucerne"). Assays for all 20 of the holes in this program have now been received with all of them encountering lengthy intervals of significant mineralization. Fourteen of the 20 holes encountered multiple intervals of significant mineralization totaling 150 feet or more, including 10 of the holes with contiguous mineralized intervals of 100 feet or more.
Highlights of the final ten holes include an assay of 1.589 ounces of gold and 6.500 ounces of silver per ton in hole E12-15, contained in a 60 foot interval averaging 0.187 ounces of gold and 2.961 ounces of silver per ton, and an assay of 6.200 ounces of silver per ton in hole E12-16, contained in a 20 foot interval averaging 0.176 ounces of gold and 2.383 ounces of silver per ton. Another highlight is hole E12-17, with total significant mineralization in multiple zones of 320 feet, including contiguous significant mineralization of 220 feet (825-1045'). The contiguous mineralization includes a 165-foot interval averaging 0.086 ounces of gold and 0.694 ounces of silver per ton.
These results are consistent with the previously announced results from the first 10 holes. Highlights of those holes included an assay of 1.693 ounces of gold per ton in hole E12-05, contained in a 20 foot interval averaging 0.621 ounces of gold and 1.408 ounces of silver per ton, and an assay of 6.000 ounces of silver per ton in hole E12-10, contained in a 75 foot interval averaging 0.111 ounces of gold and 1.382 ounces of silver per ton. Hole E12-05 was also notable for total significant mineralization in multiple zones of 370 feet, including contiguous mineralized intervals of 120 feet (0-120'), 90 feet (965-1055'), and 55 feet (1065-1120').
"These higher grades and significant thicknesses in our East-side drilling continue to exceed expectation and generate incredible resource expansion opportunities," stated Corrado De Gasperis, President and CEO of Comstock "We look forward to formally updating the results in our next NI 43-101 report in the fourth quarter."
East-side 2012 Drilling
The Lucerne East-side drilling began July 24, 2012, with plans to drill reverse circulation (RC) holes from the top of Donovan Ridge, on the east side of State Route 342. These holes were designed to test the continuity and down-dip extension of the mineralization encountered in the 2010 and 2011 East-side drilling, with depths planned of up to 1,400 feet. The initial, positive results of the program encouraged the Company to extend the program to a total of 18 RC holes. Two additional holes were drilled to test the location for future water monitoring wells. The program concluded on October 7, 2012, with 20 East-side holes completed, totaling 21,310 feet of RC drilling. The north-south extent of the drilling covered over 1,400 feet of strike length.
Assay results have been received for the all 20 RC drill holes, showing that all holes encountered intervals of significant mineralization (gold grades greater than 0.010 ounces per ton or silver grades greater than 0.100 ounces per ton, and length of at least ten feet).
Additional highlights of the results from the final ten holes include hole E12-12, with a 25-foot interval averaging 0.142 ounces of gold and 0.457 ounces of silver per ton. Hole E12-13 encountered total significant mineralization of 230 feet in multiple zones, including contiguous significant mineralization of 100 feet (790-890'). Hole E12-14 includes a 45-foot interval averaging 0.087 ounces of gold and 0.355 ounces of silver per ton.
Hole E12-15 encountered total significant mineralization of 290 feet in multiple zones, including contiguous significant mineralization of 150 feet (750-900'). The contiguous mineralization includes a 60-foot interval averaging 0.187 ounces of gold and 2.961 ounces of silver per ton. Hole E12-16 includes a 20-foot interval averaging 0.176 ounces of gold and 2.383 ounces of silver per ton.
Hole E12-18 encountered total significant mineralization of 285 feet in multiple zones, including a 20-foot interval averaging 0.097 ounces of gold and 0.460 ounces of silver per ton. Hole E12-20 encountered total significant mineralization of 250 feet in multiple zones.
Significant Mineralized Intervals
A sample from each five-foot interval in each drill hole has been sent for analysis to American Assay Labs, of Reno, Nevada, a certified independent laboratory. Assay results have been received for all 20 RC holes in the program. Those assay results were used to identify significant mineralized intervals in each hole.

Ongoing Drilling Programs
The previously completed Spring Valley exploration drilling, the Lucerne West-side development drilling and the initial East-side step-out drilling were the first phases of the Company's 2012-2013 exploration program. Further phases will include infill drilling in the Dayton Resource Area, to support a mine plan and permitting activities for a second mine; infill drilling in the East-side of the Lucerne Resource Area, to support a mine plan and permitting activities for an expansion of the existing Lucerne Mine; and ultimately, Exploration drilling on high-priority targets outside the Lucerne and Dayton Resource Areas.
"The remaining East-side of Lucerne and Dayton infill drill programs will develop and expand mine plans for both Lucerne and Dayton and provide the precise engineering and economic plans for implementing our production growth plans in 2013 and beyond," stated Corrado De Gasperis, President and CEO of Comstock.
