On November 14, 2023, Comstock Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release relating to a new, historic era of breakthrough mineral exploration with the successful launch of GENMAT-1, Quantum Generative Materials' (GenMat) Hyperspectral Remote Sensing Imaging (HRSI) system to explore optimizing future mineral exploration for the Comstock mineral estate via their proprietary physics-based artificial intelligence and cutting edge hyperspectral sensing technology.

The Company's hyperspectral data, to be acquired and transmitted within the next 3 months, will be integrated with 150+ years of current and historical geological data to test and improve GenMat’s geophysics-based machine learning models.
