Comstock (LODE) Commences Renewable Metal Shipments & Sales
Read MoreHide Full Article
Comstock Inc. (LODE - Free Report) and its subsidiary, Comstock Metals Corporation, have announced the first renewable metal shipments and sales . The company sold approximately 3,000 pounds of recycled, reusable aluminum and began regularly scheduled shipments. This initial sale exceeded LODE's expectations for secondary recovery, averaging more than 50 cents per pound for various aluminum scrap grades.
In the second quarter of 2024, Comstock Metals successfully demonstrated its ability to process clean, completely salable materials. This was in sync with the company's zero-landfill commitment.
Comstock Metals operates a commercial demonstration facility in Silver Springs, NV, which is well-placed to serve the rapidly increasing solar industry in the western United States.
The facility currently has permits for an industrial-scale expansion to store large volumes of solar panels. This enables the company to dominate in the solar panel recycling sector. It will help reduce landfilled electronic waste while recovering and reusing precious, crucial and other important components.
Comstock Metals is now working with large-scale suppliers to secure high-volume, long-term, revenue-generating supply commitments, and large-scale, off-take customers to sell quality materials.
In the second quarter of 2024, LODE incurred a loss of 6 cents per share, wider than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 4 cents. This compares to a loss of 5 cents per share reported a year ago. The company posted revenues of $0.44 million for the quarter ended June 2024.
Price Performance
LODE shares have fallen 62.6% in the past year against the industry’s growth of 46%.
