Superalloy Blog
NioCorp’s Superalloy Blog features commentary and insights on superalloy materials, technologies, applications, and markets. Below are installments of the Superalloy Blog.
The Powerful Benefits of Ferroniobium for Bridges
As the U.S. looks to repair crumbling infrastructure systems, I expect to see more high-performance steels (HPS) used in structures like bridges because of the many powerful benefits they deliver. HPS steels containing a small amount of ferroniobium – which NioCorp plans to produce in southeast Nebraska at our Elk Creek Superalloy Materials Project once we are funded and in operation – are among the strongest and most durable steels on the market today.
What A U.S. Infrastructure / Transportation Initiative Could Mean to Critical Minerals Producers
If a $2 trillion U.S. infrastructure package is enacted, it could create a major, long-term demand boom for the critical minerals needed by infrastructure and advanced transportation systems, according to NioCorp’s CEO Mark Smith.
BEYOND COVID-19: A Resurgence of Domestic Supply Chains?
One global macro trend is highly likely to accelerate in the aftermath of COVID-19: increased investment in domestic materials supply chains as a means of reducing the reliance of Western nations on supply chains in developing nations. Asia’s dominance in many strategic supply chains has become painfully obvious since the COVID-19 pandemic erupted.
CRITICAL MINERALS MINING Means New High-Tech Jobs
The more we mine and manufacture our own critical minerals and materials, the more secure our collective economic and national security will be. But there is another compelling driver behind the resurgence of interest in critical minerals mining and manufacturing: high-tech jobs and economic growth for states and localities.
ESG: Good for the Environment, Good for Business Investment
Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors play a major role in any business, particularly those involved in natural resource development. Doing right by the environment while we serve the needs of our customers, and serving our society’s need for critical minerals, are central to the mission of the NioCorp team.
The Fundamentals of Ferroniobium
The technology and market fundamentals of ferroniobium, a critical and strategic material vital to many defense and civilian applications, are increasingly compelling to producers, consumers, and government policymakers. The fundamentals of ferroniobium coalesce to form an exciting and robust future for this critical material.
