$NBPress releaseOct 13, 2026, 8:10 AM ETRead the release

NioCorp has signed a binding agreement with Traxys under which Traxys will purchase 50% of planned ferroniobium output from the Elk Creek Project on a take-or-pay basis over the first 15 years of production. Combined with the existing ThyssenKrupp offtake covering the other 50%, 100% of planned production is now supported by commercial agreements for 15 years, and Traxys holds exclusive rights to all non-ferroniobium products plus a global marketing role tied to the Trump Administration's Project Vault initiative.
