Comstock Metals Corporation gained conditional approval from the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection for its new materials recovery facility in Silver Springs, NV, focusing on processing waste solar panels efficiently. The facility is equipped for crushing, conditioning, and extracting metal concentrates from photovoltaics. With all necessary permits obtained, Comstock Metals is accepting materials for processing, addressing the increasing demand for environmentally responsible end-of-life solutions due to the accelerated decommissioning of solar panels in the southwestern U.S. Comstock is also expanding its revenue-generating supply commitments and planning an industry-scale production facility.
