Introduction |

|
The regional geology that surrounds the Comstock is influenced by basin-and-range-style and horst-and-graben faulting in a complex regional setting of many different rock ages and formations. These formations are dominated by both sedimentary and volcanic origins. Extensive deformation of the rocks and formations in the region is testiment to the dynamic nature to which the area has been exposed because of being at the fringe of the continent over the eons. |
