Comstock Lode. 1. the most valuable deposit of silver ore ever recorded, discovered in 1859 by Henry T. P. Comstock near Virginia City, Nevada.
After his time in the Army, Comstock moved to New York City in search of his fortune. He was unprepared to face the hub of America's commercialized sex industry. Prostitutes, pornographic materials, and erotica circulated freely around the city along with abortion services and contraceptives.
