NioCorp Developments Ltd is an advanced-stage critical minerals development company focused on the Elk Creek Niobium, Scandium, and Titanium Project in southeast Nebraska, United States. The company’s primary objective is to advance one of North America’s largest known niobium deposits into production. In addition to niobium, the project hosts significant scandium and titanium resources, positioning NioCorp to supply multiple high-value metals used in aerospace, defense, automotive, electronics, and clean-energy applications.
The Elk Creek project has undergone extensive exploration, drilling and metallurgical test work to support prefeasibility and feasibility studies. NioCorp has secured surface and mineral rights, completed environmental baseline studies and submitted permit applications to state and federal regulators. The company’s engineering program is designed to deliver a multi‐commodity processing facility that can produce ferroniobium, scandium oxide and titanium products at commercial scale.
Founded in 2007, NioCorp is headquartered in Denver, Colorado, and trades over-the-counter under the symbol NIOBF. Leadership is headed by President and CEO Mark A. Smith, who brings more than two decades of mining-project development and corporate finance experience. The management team also includes professionals in geology, metallurgy, engineering, environmental permitting and investor relations, all working to advance the project toward a final investment decision.
NioCorp’s strategic focus is on establishing a reliable, domestic source of critical metals in the United States while serving global markets where demand for specialty alloys and high-performance materials continues to grow. The company maintains active engagement with local communities in Nebraska and collaborates with regulatory agencies to ensure environmental compliance as it progresses through the development and permitting process.
