2026 Feasibility Study Released
NioCorp publishes updated feasibility study showing $4.1B NPV8% and 24% IRR for Elk Creek Project.
With a pre‑tax net present value of $4.1 billion and an after‑tax IRR of 22.8%, NioCorp’s Elk Creek mine feasibility study presents a compelling investment case. EXIM Bank due‑diligence clearance and a move to EPC contracting are the next catalysts for the NASDAQ‑listed company.
The Elk Creek Project promises a domestic source of neodymium, dysprosium, and other rare earths essential for wind turbines and electric vehicles—materials currently imported overwhelmingly from China. Its 40‑year life could underpin long‑term clean energy deployment, but mining’s environmental footprint must be managed.
NioCorp’s Elk Creek Project, if built, would domesticate the supply of eight critical minerals—from rare earth magnets to steel strengthening alloys—offering U.S. manufacturers a 40‑year sourcing platform. The updated feasibility study claims a $4.1B NPV and a product basket that directly replaces imports now dominated by China.
