Dream over ??
What ?
I see 19 % green in Germany at LS Exchange, lol.
This is enough for dreaming.

Agree on the aspect of a lot of going over what we have been learning over the last (8 yrs for me).
Nebraska is mentioned @ about the 23.5 minute mark, which I assume he was talking about the Elk Creek deposit.
The other topic kind of stressed toward the end was the need to get not only the mining going, but also the need for refining & processing for the best economic impact.

Thank you for the video of the committee. I listened to it and it is good to hear that there is a willingness to change in congress and get mining projects for critical minerals and rate earth back on track.
I felt the hearing was a nice confirmation of what most of us shareholders have been learning over the years about the market and Chinese control. The Chinese are “ eating our breakfast, lunch and dinner” .I didn’t hear any specifics yet or plans to move forward with force, the appropriate funding, Lot of talk about the regulatory impediments, I the guess awareness and the willingness to change is needed to do more concrete steps. Maybe I missed something.

If you have *2hrs 20 min to watch, here is the video of todays Natural Resources Hearing --Now Ore Never.
I'm about 50 mins in & had to stop to charge my phone.

I made a comment that dream was over since the share price pulled back today.

I’d love to see the share price higher, but we are not going to get on there on hopes and dreams. It’s nice to see the run up, but the giddy feeling of some posters is nauseating.

Most of us have been here 10 plus years. We need to see a rise of 350% in the share price just to get where we were before the disastrous SPAC deal. The lack of due diligence of Mark Smith and his advisors on that deal cost us legacy investors dearly. There’s been no accountability for that, just raises and bonuses for poor performance.

No. He replied to a post from T&T which was deleted by IHUB Admin.

I totally agree. The present "landscape" is perfect to get this mine financed and built. If Mark can't pull this off now, we're done here.

Someone or someones decided to get out of a whole lotta NB shares shortly after 1:05 Eastern time in the US. Look at the volume bar at 1:07 on the chart. It shows around 150,000 shares of volume on the chart on the initial dive down to $2.40 before the initial bounce back.

WATCH: Lawmaker warns of U.S. dependence on China for critical minerals
By Frank Berte | The Center Square 4 hrs ago

https://www.thecentersquare.com/national/article_c7b26634-e41a-11ef-85bb-734073552052.html
In a recent hearing, representative Gary Palmer, R-Ala., spoke on U.S. reliance on China’s imports for critical minerals and rare earth elements, warning that the lack of our domestic refining capabilities poses a major national security risk.

Palmer noted that of the nine major rare earth refineries worldwide, eight are in China, which does 70% of global cobalt mining and 80% of rare earth processing. He argued for the urgency of increasing domestic production and refining in order to ensure the economic and energy security of the nation.

“I’m a big proponent of nearshoring our supply chain, but we also need to do a whole lot more here in terms of our domestic production,” Palmer said.

Meet the House Republican advising Trump on minerals
By Hannah Northey | 01/26/2024 06:28 AM EST
Rep. Gary Palmer of Alabama has called President Joe Biden’s efforts on mining and minerals a “miserable failure.”

Rep. Gary Palmer, a member of House Republican leadership hailing from Alabama’s “graphite belt,” got a recent call from former President Donald Trump’s campaign, asking for his advice on critical minerals.

That’s when Palmer, who’s secured Trump’s blessing as he fights to keep representing the state’s 6th District, knew a second Trump term would be different.

“In the case of Trump, they’ve reached out to me on energy and critical minerals and the Western Hemisphere idea,” Palmer told E&E News. “It’s indicative of … how different a second term would be with President Trump.”

I definitely agree on the now or never part at least.

Btw, what is the all time high share price for NB. Is it $16.00 a share($1.6 pre-split)? If we get news of an off-take agreement plus “Any” kind of funding to start our mine Niocorp will easily smash the $16.00 a share in 2025 IMO.

Well I’m not looking that far ahead, but I would not doubt it either.
But up there I would be considering baling for a time due to warrants exercising and share selling. (THink 6565, GX)

IMO When we finally do break above $2.70 I don’t see too much holding us back until $4.00 ((but, but, but)) new highs can create new resistance.

Resistance for instance.
$2.90 has happened a couple of times.

Just sayin

Well, according to Dakotaboy here on the Board last evening, NB is going to trade above $15.00 this year. 🧐

If we get what we need yes. Frankly it’s now or never.

Concentrate my energy on NB and NIOBW now as I am out of LWLG since late 2024.

Someone trying to buy back in on support, after departing with their shares above or at $2.70 resistance I presume.

The highs this week suggest to me it will only be resistance a short while. Then it will be support.

Take your chance at the bid. Best quantity success higher up where the day traders are selling obviously.

JMO

The wide spreads this morning have been a bit strange. At one point a few minutes ago it was $2.51 x $2.69 with a bid to buy 54,000 shares at $2.51, but lowest trade was and still is $2.53.

Calling for a 10 bagger this year huh?

Dutch- Why??? Because there are all kinds of other stocks that will give you very nice returns (think AI stocks, MAG7, Quantum Computing, Power, Infrastructure, Data Center, Etc....) WITHOUT having to wait 15 years... The opportunity cost for NB has been excruciating when we consider all of the other potential alternatives........ If we had visibility and transparency into the near/mid term that would be one thing.... but we were told to be excited about EXIM a year and a half ago, only to find out now that they did not have the proper staff to do the application review, and who the F knows how long that shell game would have gone on unbenounced to us NB shareholders IF a new administration (who changed the EXIM Executive staff and removed the logjam (we think) as progress seems to have resumed....... UGH x 100000000

CRML dropped hard.... Seems no Greenland buisness on the horizon

Let's build it in America 

Yes, yes I am also waiting for $30 pps day, that would give me hefty pay day from NIOBW and recently added NB shares.

Wow the broke company that would greatly benefit from self reliance on critical minerals wrote a bit about self reliance on critical minerals? Now THATS some meaty news.

Welcome to iHub. You've made some interesting points in your posts, I think most of us old-timers would be interested in learning about his history with NioCorp or the industry.

Careful, don't walterwagner yourself. 🤪

I'm never going anywhere! I just stay here.... why will you exit when predicted profits will show up???

Hate to be a buzz-kill but I'm having a hard time getting excited when we are still almost $5 DOLLARS BELOW the SP before all of this SPAC/Reverse Merger Management Hail Mary...... we still have about 300% to go before we just break even and dig ourselves out of the hole that management dug for us...... This is what happens when you have hat in hand and knees bent on the alter of the gub'mint......Things could take a year to happen..... or they could take 5 years..... and we are never really squared with, so the frustration bubbles to a head....... and then a table scrap is thrown to us and we reset the expectation clock for another 9 months and go back to sleeeeep......Gosh we only have 2 more approval phases from EXIM....... then a Board Decision, then who knows..... fatigue and frustration meters are pegged with this f'g company...... You will NEVER catch me investing in another G.D. mining company, just hit $12-. $15 pre production and i am the Fukkk out of here...... Good riddance!!

All Time Highs in 2025. Watch

No, I’m here to waste my time until I can make some money lol and right now all I’ve done is waste my time the money is years away

That would definitely keep the share price from sliding back down. Guess we will see if Mark and his brilliant colleagues can actually come through and make a GOOD deal.

That would be excellent and much needed news Stark12. In 1 month $NB SP has shot up almost 100% on just update news from EXIM. Can you imagine the jump in share price once we get funded to start construction?? I’m hoping something happens that lets us expedite the EXIM process so we can have a banner year!!

I am thinking an announcement about a titanium offtake or something definitive with Stellantis./scandium would really give this a jolt. I do like the steady share price appreciation with good volume but I think it's riding on the China and critical minerals situation very heavily.

Putz: Is that you with the block of 8,300 shares offered for sale at $15.000 on the Ask side of level 2 through Market maker H? 😉 Other than the 1,900 shares offered at $2.86, that is the only significant sized block out there on the Ask.

I have some warrants, they're at the bottom of a well somewhere. The expiration keeps getting closer while the Authorization to Proceed and full production keep getting farther away.

The stars and planets seem to be lining up, so I'm pretty optimistic about 2025. Happy for now that I kept buying into the lows.

I'm surprised we haven't seen more price action in the NIOBW warrants in line with the recent increase in NioCorp share price.

I finally dipped my toes into the warrants last month at .11 and the price has been stagnant.

If this mine is still looking for funding in 2028 I'll wash my hands of this whole investment and consider it a total loss.

Annual Meeting: NB had to know this news was coming but was not in a position to make any announcement. My bet is that they wanted to have the annual meeting AFTER this EXIM news came out so they could tout this major announcement/progress (and it IS, it just does not seem like it given the context us longtime shareholders have of years of disappointments and bs). Now, the rescheduled annual meeting will have some legitimate reason for excitement attached to it, especially if there is positive follow-up news between now and then.

C'mon EXIM - the work is already done and the minerals keep looking better as the technology is rapidly advancing! AMERICA NEEDS THIS MINE NOW!

Minerals Closer to Home in Nebraska
Nebraska is not considered a mining state, but it can claim deposits of niobium, scandium, and titanium. Although none are key in the race towards high-capacity batteries, each are designated critical minerals and are the subject of supply chain concerns and of U.S. strategic planning. Niobium is mostly used in steel and other superalloys making them lighter and stronger. Scandium is used in aluminum alloys and ceramics with projections for use in aerospace and fuel-cell applications. Titanium is also used in metal alloys and as a pigment. The presence of economically significant deposits of these important minerals has been known since the early 1970s. Field exploration was conducted in the 1970s and 1980s at a site near Elk Creek in southeast Nebraska. The current owner of the site, NioCorp, began detailed exploration studies and completed27 a feasibility study in 2019. A 2022 report found that a significant amount of REEs may be
present as well, suggesting Nebraska may have the second largest deposit in the United States. NioCorp has already spent $60 million for exploration, permitting, and feasibility studies on its Elk Creek Project.29 It has secured all federal construction permits through the Nebraska Department of Environment and Energy, signed a contract with the Nebraska Department of Economic Development for $200 million in tax credits and secured purchase contracts for portions of its niobium and scandium output. One of these contracts with a German firm may make the project eligible for guaranteed loans from the German government. However, after years of preparation there is still no mine.
"deposits of niobium, scandium, and titanium. Although none are key in the race towards high-capacity batteries"

https://niobium.tech/en/niobium-li-ion-batteries
Niobium plays a pivotal role in enhancing the next-generation of batteries elevating their performance. This dynamic synergy between Niobium and lithium-ion batteries technology underscores the potential for longer-lasting, safer, and more efficient energy storage solutions.

https://nocamels.com/2023/03/researchers-test-high-capacity-titanium-air-battery/
Researchers have, for the first time, tested a titanium-air battery, which could theoretically store up to three times more energy than standard batteries.

https://www.scandium.org/applications/scandium-for-energy-sector/
Scandium-aluminum alloys, recognized for their lightweight and durable properties, contribute to advancements in battery technology. These alloys enhance the structural integrity and conductivity of battery components, supporting the development of lightweight and high-capacity energy storage solutions.

DM, I see that just like you. Good PR with the right manager and in the right place with the Trump administration and the thing just starts. If you consider that presplit, 50-200 dollars was intended as a desired goal... Trump has gathered his billionaires, China will escalate the situation as well... it can't get any easier to get financing...

You're welcome. Based on some potential tech/equip improvements, there may be a possibility of shortening that production timeline but nothing is moving until the funding comes through..

https://www.niocorp.com/study-finds-electrifying-niocorps-critical-minerals-mine-could-lead-to-faster-time-to-full-production-plus-significant-economic-and-environmental-gains/
NioCorp’s existing Feasibility Study shows full ore production at month 45 of the Elk Creek Project. In contrast, according to the Optimize study, the new twin ramp scenario could achieve full production at month 40, a savings of 5 months, due to the simplification of pre-development construction activities.

Thank you.

How the warrants work...

If we get back to $5, hopefully large enough news and loans have hit to make it a good idea to jump in. I don't see even $3 happening until something big hits. EXIM moving a little is nice but not $5 nice. We have seen this honeymoon bump over and over and over. If good stuff keeps happening we keep going. If all that happens is government ballyhoo with no money attached, we go back down. This is not new.

Why NioCorp Developments Ltd. (NB) Mining Stock Is Skyrocketing So Far In 2025?

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/why-niocorp-developments-ltd-nb-120411049.html

At least we can count on the big boys to jump in @ $5.00. haha

Does anyone know how the warrants work here?
doesn't look like they were split.

A honeymoon bump on okayish news is happening. This will stagnate again and most likely drop again as we wait if no big money drops in. Dilutive shit can kick money doesn't count.

It’s happening

Except Monday and Tuesday both happened today. LoL

$2.50 and $2.70 got trashed with a $2.92 high, but settled down to trade hard between the two macros.

Here’s hoping for higher prices still, to embellish the chart, but we are in a somewhat safe zone here, although somehow I don’t think the market wants safe yet!
It’s definitely a critical minerals market.

MP materials traded almost 9 million shares today. Up 10%

Just a gut feeling, but feel the extra drilling required by EXIM was just an excuse to kick the can as they did not know what the hell they were doing in regards to mining. New EXIM says send it to experts, we’ll see what they say, this thing is a go!!
