NioCorp joined with a group of rare earth industry players to urge the U.S. Congress to approve bipartisan legislation in order to provide tax incentives for U.S. manufacturing of permanent rare earth magnets.
NioCorp is pleased to announce success in the first stage of metallurgical testing that is designed to optimize the Elk Creek flowsheet and evaluate the potential integration of rare earth recovery to the Elk Creek Project.
At the request of IIROC, NioCorp (TSX:NB) (OTCQX:NIOBF) wishes to confirm that it is not aware of any material, undisclosed information related to the Company that would account for the recent increase in the market price and level of trading volume of its common shares.
NioCorp has initiated testing of Elk Creek ore using High-Pressure Grinding Rolls technology, which is an energy-efficient and low-emission alternative for reducing the size of the ore to enable the recovery of niobium, scandium, titanium, and potential rare earth products.
