Non-viable, non-commercializable mineral rights generally don't get financed and don't become operating mines. They remain low-cost mineral rights that get leased to unknown, low-quality entities for low lease terms - just like Elk Creek. They are used by the low-tier lessees as a story to use to raise funds from unsophisticated investors and sell them shares, while the low-tier insiders gett paid and live well whilst often also self-dealing, like MARK SMITH did and does with tricks like risk-free, high-interest bridge loans made to the company and free stock grants, all while being well-paid salarywise and full benefits and, most fun of all, a virtually unlimited expense account - including travel and entertainment.

Being a pennyscam CEO is a great gig! All you need is a cheap, non-viable business CONcept you can tout and fool ignorant, unsophisticated pennyvestors into buying shares and giving you their money, directly via PPs or indirectly by retail purchases on the open market. Then, just gett them to hold onto the depreciating shares while you dilute and gett more munny to pay yourself.

It's a real good gig. There are tons of non-viable businesses and non-commercializable mineral rights around that can be acquired cheaply because they are worth little to nothing as a base for a profitable business. Like Elk Creek.

Winning - a viable, profitable business - is nott a goal because it is nott possible. The goal is to keep the scam running - for years and years - and keep printing and selling shares. That is the game. And that is the game with Niocorp Developments. The years tick by and the goalposts keep getting moved back and back, all the while printing and selling shares - because THAT is the name of this game.

Welcome to Pennyscamland!!!

Sad, I would have never imagined the share price would be at a decade low with dilution nearly tripled and the mine still not financed by now. I certainly would have never imagined Mark Smith making such an awful business deal with GXII. I sure hope they hire someone that has better negotiating ability than Mark Smith to broker any future deals and contracts.

Can Battery Recycling Break China's Stranglehold on Rare_Earth_Metals?

"But there could be a way to source lithium and other key energy transition metals in a way that is not only better for local communities, but more sustainable for the world in general – recycling lithium-ion batteries. A new study from Stanford University shows that on an industrial scale, battery recycling is at least 58% less environmentally harmful than mining new lithium. The Stanford researchers determined that the recycling process for lithium-ion batteries emits less than half the greenhouse gases of conventional mining and refinement processes, and uses just a quarter of the water and energy required to mine new metals."

No offense but waiting til 2029 for a pathetic “Real” share price of $2.40 a share is beyond horrible and almost criminal. NioCorp hit a share price of $1.60 or $16.60 on just a Fox News appearance and now you think a goal of $2.40 a share is a solid price point once in full production in 4-5 years???Literally, a high yield savings account would have made us more money with a decade+ of holding our money hostage. If your numbers are correct we hired the worst management team in the mining business. I’m hoping we get $24.00 a share on FOMO, off-take agreements and the EXIM funding that comes through in 2025.

Btw, I do appreciate all the time and effort you put into DD for this company. IMO, You are more qualified and smarter than almost everyone on the $NB BOD and management team. Thanks again for all you do👍

Hi Chico! Always great to hear from you our friend... I sure hope we get much better per Share price than you conservatively predict... to wait until '28 or '29 to get $24 out of this stock would really be disheartening...... Even tho the greasy SPAC evangelists (MaxZ and Skiluk) predicted that this mine would be worth $20-$30 even before production..... I believe (and sure the hell hope) that the anal-ysts are sophisticated enough to place 'forward-looking' revenue/EBITDA and NPV projections (albeit with healthy discounting , i.e., discounted by let's say 40% to account for the fact that it is not producing yet.... ) these forward looking projections should have NB significantly higher (****contingent upon procuring financing****) than your projections.
I would love for the greasy SPAC-le cheerleader twins (SKILUC and MAD MAX-Z) to come out from under their little desks and defend some of those projections they used to slick talk everyone into voting for the GX SPAC merger.... I believe they were part of GX's lobbying team..... or why would they have disappeared like a fart in the wind as soon as the SPAC exploded????? hmmmmm..... scratching head....
But thanks again for your prediction CHICO! I do respect your opinion!

Yes, I want to exercise warrants before it expires. When NB pps reach $10.3 anything over would be my profits from NIOBW.

For now I carry no costs on NIOBW as it has been paid by profits from LWLG. NB shares bought last 3 months would become handy helping out my dream here.

My recent buys of NB started at $1.45 and up.

Even before that, right now Musk is being tutored by 4 -1 = 3 young studs who are scouring through financial data, and while there they found excess in the word warrant. They removed the R’s and one A, changing the dynamics while allowing it to remain a word, but shortens any sentence it is in, making it a smaller carbon foot print.
Also realizing no regulations required in wanting to exercise.

• Niobium-based anodes in batteries could improve charging speed, durability, and safety, making them ideal for electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy storage.

3. Aerospace & Hypersonic Applications
• Niobium alloys are used in rocket engines, jet turbines, and spacecraft due to their high strength and heat resistance.
• It is a key material in future hypersonic vehicles that require extreme durability under high temperatures.

4. Green Energy & Hydrogen Economy
• Niobium is being tested for hydrogen storage materials, which could accelerate the adoption of clean hydrogen energy.
• It is used in wind turbines and solar panels, improving their durability and efficiency.

5. Structural & Automotive Advancements
• Niobium-steel alloys make vehicles, bridges, and buildings lighter, stronger, and more resistant to corrosion.
• Using niobium in EV frames can reduce weight and improve energy efficiency.

Challenges & Availability
• Niobium is relatively rare, with most of the world’s supply coming from Brazil.
• Its mining and processing need to scale up sustainably to meet future demand.

Verdict: Is Niobium the Element of the Future?

Yes, niobium has strong potential to be a future-defining material, especially in energy storage, superconductors, aerospace, and green technologies. While it may not replace lithium or rare earth metals entirely, its unique properties make it a crucial element for next-gen innovations.

Interesting new technology for titanium and niobium processing

Cleaning up critical minerals and materials production, using microwave plasma
With technology developed at MIT, 6K is helping to bring critical materials production back to the U.S. without toxic byproducts.
Zach Winn | MIT News
Publication Date:February 7, 2025

The push to bring manufacturing back to the U.S. is running up against an unfortunate truth: The processes for making many critical materials today create toxic byproducts and other environmental hazards. That’s true for commonly used industrial metals like nickel and titanium, as well as specialty minerals, materials, and coatings that go into batteries, advanced electronics, and defense applications.

Now 6K, founded by former MIT research scientist Kamal Hadidi, is using a new production process to bring critical materials production back to America without the toxic byproducts.

chico237 chico237 3 days ago
Still Here.... Waiting with many... I updated my SPECULATIONS for NioCorp's financial estimates based on current market prices for critical minerals, we'll use the latest available data as of February 7, 2025. The prices for each mineral are as follows:

Niobium: Approximately $45 per kilogram.
Neodymium/Praseodymium: Approximately $90 per kilogram.
Terbium: Approximately $650 per kilogram.
Dysprosium: Approximately $450 per kilogram.
Titanium (TiCl4): Approximately $4,500 per ton.
Scandium: Approximately $2,500 per kilogram.

THE FOLLOWING SPECULATIONS & ESTIMATES ARE ALL MY OPINION OF WHAT NIOCORP "MIGHT" BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING -(Should they achieve the Funds to complete that "Early as Possible 2024 F.S., Obtain remaining contracts for the last 25% of Niobium Oxide, 100% of Titanium Production, 90% of Scandium Production, & 100% of REE's, or Final Debt/Equity Finance via EXIM, DoD, DoE, or other interested entities. )

1. Updated Revenue Estimates (Annual)

Niobium (5,000 tons/year):
5,000 tons/year × 1,000 kg/ton × $45/kg = $225 million/year.

Neodymium/Praseodymium (600 tons/year):
600 tons/year × 1,000 kg/ton × $90/kg = $54 million/year.

Terbium (24 tons/year):
24 tons/year × 1,000 kg/ton × $650/kg = $15.6 million/year.

Dysprosium (120 tons/year):
120 tons/year × 1,000 kg/ton × $450/kg = $54 million/year.

Titanium (TiCl4) (12,000 tons/year):
12,000 tons/year × $4,500/ton = $54 million/year.

Scandium (30 tons/year):
30 tons/year × 1,000 kg/ton × $2,500/kg = $75 million/year. (NOTE: ONLY CALCULATING for 30 tons out of 110T available until market or stockpiles allow)
Total Revenue Estimate:

$225M (Niobium) + $54M (Neodymium/Praseodymium) + $15.6M (Terbium) + $54M (Dysprosium) + $54M (Titanium) + $75M (Scandium) = $477.6 million/year.

2. Operating Costs (OPEX) & Capital Expenditures (CAPEX)
OPEX:
Assuming 25% of revenue for operating costs:
25% of $477.6 million = $119.4 million/year.

CAPEX:
Remains at the previous estimate of $1.8 billion for the project’s initial capital expenditures. (COULD BE LESS!)

3. NPV Calculation (with 36-year mine life)
Discount rate:
10% (standard for these types of projects).
Pre-Tax NPV:
With the reduced scandium sales, the pre-tax NPV will likely be closer to $3.5-4.5 billion.
Post-Tax NPV:

Considering 45X tax credits and Nebraska credits:
The post-tax NPV could rise to $5.5-6.5 billion.
4. Share Price Estimates (for different shares outstanding)

For 50 million shares outstanding:
Post-Tax NPV of $5.5 billion ÷ 50M shares = $110/share.

For 200 million shares outstanding:
Post-Tax NPV of $5.5 billion ÷ 200M shares = $27.50/share.
RUN YOUR OWN NUMBERS.... SEE HOW THEY COMPARE.... IF NIOCORP CAN SELL THE ENTIRE AMOUNT OF SCANDIUM EVEN AT $2,500/KG = $600-700MILLION in EARNINGS.... "Not TOO SHABBY" either way & compares well with MP Materials...

Niocorp's Elk Creek Project is "Standing Tall" & IS PART OF THE CRITICAL MINERAL & RARE EARTH SOLUTION!!! ....see for yourself...
https://www.niocorp.com/



Still standing by my $24/share once in production call.... Maybe 2028 or 2029 now??? Waiting with many still.... as a Skeleton in my front row seat for the 2025 Season! LET'S GET THIS DONE TEAM NIOCORP!

Interesting. Your posting history would indicate otherwise. The German loan guarantee was explained in writing at the time tied to the Thyssenkrupp offtake agreement, but as has been discussed here many times, and as pointed out by Putz this am, there is a huge difference between a loan guarantee and a guaranteed loan. I have better things to do than go back and pull the documents on that together for you. I have no idea what documents you would be referring to with regard to any failed financing. As I stated it has been explained many times. Have you not ever attended a town hall or other meetings with management in Nebraska?
