Comstock Mining Inc. has been distinguished amongst Nevada miners with a First Place Award for the “2016 Mine Operation Safety” in the Small Mine Category.
“I must thank the late Randy Harris, our first and former safety director, for establishing a safety-first culture throughout our organization and Tammy Harding, our most recent safety director, for relentlessly building our team’s competency and awareness, while promoting behavioral safety amongst a group of strongly interdependent miners, men and women, who care for each other. Together, our whole team has been acknowledged from their excellent leadership in 2013, 2014, and now again, in 2015,” said Corrado De Gasperis, president and CEO of Comstock Mining.
The Nevada Mining Association (NvMA) recognizes mining operations based on their safety statistics from 2015, for operators that had a minimum of 35,000 exposure hours during the calendar year. Comstock Mining’s operations achieved a “Triple Zero,” meaning no reportable injuries, lost times incidents or severity days for the entire year of 2015.
“It is most rewarding to see every worker return home safely every day,” said De Gasperis.
