The Comstock area is held under mining lease 5M/2007 covering over 245 hectares.
The mine consists of a gravity processing plant, tailings dam, offices, access roads, power lines and a number of open cut pits.
These open cuts were the result of previous mining operations and most run north-east with one having a dog-leg to the north.

Mining for tin, lead, zinc, silver and copper deposits occurred sporadically through until the 1960s.
