Any updates from Mark's presentation right now?? How does it sound? Any new news??
One would think this Wainwright Conferences could be the steppingstone to a solid 4th quarter for us?? I would love to have DEMO news completed before Oct. 19 at the 19th international rare earths conference. We are after all the GOLD Sponsor for the event so we have to come with something big to share to the world. https://metalevents.com/events/19th-international-rare-earths-conference In a perfect world Mark will be able to present additional exciting news that will help our share price skyrocket...Maybe EXIM deal??
If I am really being honest and hopeful beforethe OCT 19th event we the EXIM financing in hand...Can you imagine how exciting this would be for us longs?? I see some sort of DOD contract in hand before end of year. Fingers Crossed.
Some are thinking we are in store for some possible news. If so, What could we expect to receive on the PR front this week or later this month?
lol you are correct NorCalTommy, This management team has Fuc*ed this up so bad we get excited for anything now...I have to give them credit for giving us all stockholm syndrome! But something is in the works for the recent price jump. BTW, why does our share price say $4.23 a share (16.85%) where everwhere else it say's we are $4.10 a share???
What a refreshing change! I love it when we end the week in my favorite color GREEN with almost a 14% gain to boot!!
Wow! Talking smack about PutzMueler father? That is a low blow even for you LCP77 or better known as Little Co*k Peter77. As for news this morning it’s just another reason we need to give mark a raise. .36 a share?l I know I know pre-split pricing? WTF!! Something has to go our way eventually right??? In 9 years we had 1 minor pump in share price because mark went on Fox News…1 Fing pump!! I still get pissed when Mark said in 2017-2018 NE town hall event he believed NioCorp should be trading around $6-$7 a share( that’s $60-$70 a share in todays world. How could Mark be so far off on share price predictions??? Not mad anymore just disappointed how all of this has transpired. I love this company and want it to succeed as badly as you all. Days, weeks, months and years like this make me wish I had a drinking problem lol
Hoping for some good PR’s this month! Let’s get that Demo news done and completed this September(2023) please!! NioCorp like my Huskers need a win!! I have faith in both of them :)
Haha odd response but I like it lol.
PutzMueler, I got a little teary eyed when you were talking about your father. I do not know you personally, but I have always got a kick out of you and your sense of humor. You sound like a great son and a wonderful father. Your father obviously was a good judge of character. I just wish I had someone like him that would have talked some sense in me about mark smith and the management team. But I am stubborn and loyal to a fault and would defend Mark smith till I was blue in the face not realizing what a terrible businessman he is. BTW, I did like the news that Chico sent over https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/USDOEOFE/bulletins/36ed8c5 Let's hope $nb can get a little or a lot of that $150 million from Joe!
Let's also hope $NB is never on this list below but its a great article lol.

I agree! Nothing has changed and I really love our chances at succeeding with mine being built. But that still doesn’t mean we don’t have a horrible management team minus Scott. It’s 100% proven mark sucks at being a CEO. Look at our evaluation and share price man. Until Mark gets this in the $50+ a share range btw that’s only $5 bucks a share. Let’s go back including myself on past messages that”we” said what our share price will be. Remember how we all thought $3-$5+ a share would be the floor once we joined Nasdaq, or get financing done or have feasibility study #2 done??? I can provide many examples from past posts so let’s not pretend we “all” have amnesia lol. I was the biggest promoter in thinking our share price would explode so I’m not throwing stones. I was dumb enough to believe in Mark for a decade. I’ve lost friendships because I told people to invest in NioCorp. We all look like fools believing in Mark. Have you enjoyed losing 70-90% of your shares and company evaluation after the bogus R/S and spac deal? That being said will you publicly say that you would not mind losing all your money in NioCorp if you were forced to sell your shares today? Because others had to sell at these low prices because they believed in Mark being a competent CEO. Shame on Mark for putting us in this position all the while getting richer in the process. Shame on this management team minus Scott who actually works full time for NioCorp.
We ALL agree Mark is the worlds worst CEO but he’s our horrible CEO so we need to love this lovable loser!
Hey NorCalTommy, I am trying very hard to get this GO FUND ME started for Mark and Jim. https://www.gofundme.com/ These guys need more money so they can continue to deliver top notch results. How can we expect Mark and Jim to work hard if they continue to make next to nothing?? Mark and Jim should make no less then $5 million+ a year at the lowest. If everyone can donate at least $5,000 thousand dollars to this amazing cause, we can keep Mark and Jim, so they do not get tempted and work elsewhere.
Useless spam?? Little “C” Peter77 why so serious tonight?
I’m confused…I thought LCP77 stood for Little Coc* Peter plus 77 being your age?? We all have been way off. Sorry bout that brah.
So are you/we all still hopfull that ADTM can turn around and start up again? What do you all think/hope will happen for us investors at $ADTM?
You as well. So are you/we all still hopfull that ADTM can turn around and start up again? What do you all think/hope will happen for us investors at $ADTM?
Rader1977, I would be shocked if $NB share price floor is under $20 dollars a share when we get EXIM loan confirmation and positive feasibility results in. That is only $2 dollars a share with this kind of outstanding news?? If you look at other mining companies that had partial funding results like TMRC they jumped to almost $5 dollars a share($50 if they did a reverse split) . Call me crazy but I would like to think by early next year we can be at $3 dollars or $30 dollars a share minimum with this kind of incredible news. I know I know others will say impossible with Mark Smith as our CEO, but Niocorp must have its day in the sun eventually, doesn’t it???
TMRC went from .75 to $4.70 very quickly with the link I provided below and they only got $50 million plus a good partnership.

Lol no man I’m not cashing out at $1.30 a share. Btw, where are those loser loud mouths Skiluk and MaxZ hiding at??
Thanks AO! I will gladly take $13 a share right now!!
Why do you think we are having a price drop? Did I miss something? Thanks
$ALTAF
Lol Putz that was a good one. But the other option is to have mark on speed dial and have behind closed door meeting’s. Btw. Has mark and Jim set up that town hall meeting in tecumseh yet? I would assume having a face to face in Nebraska would be a hell of a lot cheaper then using our dime to fly to Belgium and meet a few ass kissers? C’mon Mark and Jim the mine is in Nebraska why are you not doing another nice town hall event like the one in 2017?? In fairness Mark would actually have step up and be a true CEO/leader and Answer difficult questions….
I’m only down -50% we should really think about giving mark a raise? We cannot afford to lose him to another company like IBC lol. How’s IBC doing? Mark Smith is a CEO (Crap executive Officer) If our shares did in the .15-.25 share range I’m crying :(
Dude, even I think he crossed the line with those remarks. My comments were a fictional analogy let’s not get personal. But I still think some on here are delusional with thinking management deserves raises.
It is very simple; Mark knows he has followers who will believe every word that comes out of his mouth and defend him at all costs. They can justify at any cost if “the end justifies the means”These are the same group of people who defend Financial advisors, Bernie Madoff, Jefery Epstein, the Sackler family at Purdue pharma ect.... Mark could sleep with their spouses and get caught red handed and they would look away and say well....Look at what Mark did at Molycorp 20 years ago before he bankrupted the company and left investors high and dry. Remember all those years Mark said he hates Reverse splits?? Of course, you do but again, you give mark a pass because “the end justifies the means” right fellas??
Whoever designed the new website needs to be fired immediately!! What were they thinking? It’s confusing, busy, non user friendly. If your goal is to lose customers keep up the bad work.
Rader1977 you are correct...But those companies are down because of the markets. $Nb is down because of mismanagement/negligence. Big difference and I mean a big difference between the two. STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR THIS TEAM! STOP IT ALL OF YOU. Again, a deep dive into the why mark and management did what they did will have to be addressed one way or the other. Mark is a lawyer, and knows what he has done is not a minor booboo.
Truth and Transparency posted yesterday. "Mark’s gross incompetence has cost our company over $265 million in market cap"
"Mark fu**ed up and made a horrible deal with some bad people with a shady business history. I want to know why he never had something in the deal to ensure a minimum amount of capital for the deal or it would have been null and void. Furthermore, why the fu** would he appoint those same people to the BOD!
Whatever, Mark’s gross incompetence has cost our company over $265 million in market cap. There’s no one on this board that has had a damn bit of influence on this sell off.
Mark can spin it anyway he wants but NB management should resign for the betterment of our company. What has Mark done effectively to keep making the kind of money he is making?? I want a serious response from mark's biggest and brightest supporters. Humor us country bumpkins on why this current NB staff deserves the type of pay based on current share price??? Please let us know so we can hear how stupid you all sound.
Silver lining...It is almost raise season so I cannot wait to see what the A-Tean will make this year?? Only an idiot would give them a pay raise...I will he shocked if they do not do the righ thing and take massive paycuts. I mean massive like 75% pay cut just so they do not look so greedy.
https://www1.salary.com/NIOCORP-DEVELOPMENTS-LTD-Executive-Salaries.html
Truth and Transparency, scooter83 and whoever else that has investigated this disastrous deal. This is exactly what I am talking about. Who is to blame?? One has to wonder if Mark was under duress or of sound mind when making this deal?? Where were our overpaid part time executives, Board of directors, lawyers etc.....Why did someone anyone not step in and say Mark, this is a very bad deal we cannot move forward with it??? Why did Mark Smith not have a null and void clause for NioCorp receiving so little in return SMH??? Why didn’t Niocorp management help Mark Smith and explore every possible scenario that could happen when doing this sort of deal?? So far, the Worst-case scenarios are happening. Silver lining, we also got sand kicked in our faces but added a couple of dip Shi+'s from GXII who are now Board of directors. On top of that GX made millions and added millions of free shares?? WTF??? You cannot make this stuff up?? Somehow, I still believe the whole crew at Niocorp are stellar guys just bad at running a business start-up or not. I am sure investors in this company who have passed are rolling in the graves seeing what has happened to this wonderful company :(
Who is to blame???
1) Mark Smith and team?
2) Lender A?
3) GX?
4)Yorkville?
5)Putz? I think we all agree Putz is to blame lol. Just kidding man I love ya and your humor dark or not I get a kick out of you.
6)Covid??
7) Yet Unknown?
https://www.gammilllaw.com/blog/2019/02/when-can-a-companys-shareholders-sue/
jeunke22, much appreciated if you can make this happen for us all. It’s time for brutal difficult questions to be asked. The discussion does not have to be a fight with management or voices raised. If this happens I believe this will help management not look like cowards. Thanks for helping make this happen. All I ask is they do it in a larger setting not some tiny office located in Denver or some shady law office. We need questions from those that will not ask management softball questions. We don’t need fluff answers we need real answers. We need another large town hall meeting like the one they did in 2017 in tecumseh.
Duke, can Mark sue the F-Heads at GXII for getting us in this mess?? We can never blame Mark because Mark does nothing wrong but nobody of sound mind would make a deal like Niocorp did for so little in return? Was mark under some kind of duress when he made this shocking deal? Something is very fishy because even a horrible incompetent CEO would not have done a deal like this. Did other high salary executives at Niocorp also agree to this?? We have never heard a peep from management and that is very worrisome...I think they were dupped because our team is full of super nice guys but sometimes nice guys get taken advantage of :(
People sue for anything these days and what has happened to us is far worse than most pathetic lawsuits.
https://www.gammilllaw.com/blog/2019/02/when-can-a-companys-shareholders-sue/
Remember the hot coffee lawsuit???
The jury found that McDonald's was 80 percent responsible for the incident. They awarded Liebeck a net $160,000 in compensatory damages to cover medical expenses, and $2.7 million (equivalent to $5,000,000 in 2022) in punitive damages, the equivalent of two days of McDonald's coffee sales.
You are correct Duke, There is an old saying that fits mark perfectly. "Everyone wants to be the man until they have to be the man” Facts do not lie, and Mark had multiple shots to get this done and failed miserably every time. I will continue to say even if this team does obtain financing mark and Jim need to be let go. The unrepairable damage is already done and will take years to play catch up as Wall street, Banks, and other financial institutions do not trust or want to deal with Mark....Hence why $Niocorp must find lenders in back alleys, pool halls and the other shady environments. It is clear as a sunny day, Mark and Jim are bad at what they do for a living. I know that statement may hurt some feelings especially those who have mark and Jim on speed dial. But guess what??? When I look at our stock trading account mark and Jim hurt my feelings every day seeing my investment go in the toilet from a decade of waiting. We need to ask ourselves a very serious question. Do you want Mark and Jim to continue to get richer or for us to go broke?? This management team knows how the bankruptcy game works as they have been down this road before. If anyone believes in history, then they know it always repeats itself. Do the right thing Mark and Jim!!! We beg of you to resign immediately or sell to a group that knows what they are doing and will work ‘FULL TIME” to get it done. Our investment depends on these "nice" guys stepping down and getting the F out of the mining business for good.
So you are saying we the investors won the battle with a 1-10 Reverse split that turned out to be a 1-16 closing in on 1-17 reverse split with current share price?? You do not need to reply we all know the real answer. Not sure why it’s so difficult for some to admit what everyone else is thinking. We need a new management team even if they get financing. Mark and Jim suck in leadership roles and we deserve much better. I’d say let mark and Jim just focus on IBC but they are destroying that company as well. It’s time Mark and Jim tried something else or just retired as the good Lord knows they made enough money. Don’t get me wrong they made millions and millions for themselves along the way but left many, many others in horrible financial shape. Oh wait, but look at what they did 20 years ago for a hot second at Molycorp wink, wink
At this point in the game we can all agree on one thing. NioCorp and IBC both have Mark Smith and Jim Sims…The worst management team ever assembled. How lucky and fortunate that we have both working side by side:(
They do remind me of my favorite super hero’s Ace and Gary!! I love those guys!
What is his facebook link? Can someone send this over please? What are the chances of ADTM making a comeback? I think we have a fighters chance for $ADTM to pop again.
?? Not sure what 4%+spike and good news you speak of? Did Mark put you up to this lol. Seriously though, we all love this mine well most of us that is. Lying to ourselves is not going to affect the share price one way or the other. Mark and Jim’s massive mistakes have effected our share price so stop making excuses for them. Not cool dude!
Btw, nioturd, when you say “simple rules of economics ,
IF you want to sell a house,
You don't constantly tell them , (potential buyers) how ugly you find the house”
That is very true. So we should lie and tell the world how great Jim sims and Mark Smith are? Tell future investors that Mark Smith is a great CEO that only works at one company and will put in 50 hours+ a week for us only?? Lie to them and say Mark doesn’t have multiple other jobs and boards of director obligations?? Hence, why it’s taken a decade+ to get financing accomplished?? Sorry, mark may be a nice person but he’s a horrible CEO. [t][/t]I was brought up to tell the truth all the time not some of the time. In good conscience I cannot tell people anymore that Mark is a good CEO. I used to believe he was really good at his job. But the straw that broke the camel’s backs was ALL OF MANAGEMENT’S CURRENT MISTAKES that could take years to recover. Sorry, you can lie to others and yourself but I’m not playing in that sand box any longer.
bleedpurple, first off most $NB investors now agree with you. Mark Smith needs his ass fired asap! Let’s all come together as a team and force Mark and Jim to resign immediately. Let’s not let our horrendous CEO take the joy away from this potentially great mine!! Hang in there buddy Mark and Jim will do the right thing and resign.,Have a great night man I know you are upset but we got this!!
Oh thanks for explanation. I meant before blackout/EXIM period though. How many personal shares has Jim and the rest of NioCorp team purchased using own money not “free” shares. How do I find this information out? I’m assuming Jim Sims has purchased a ton of his own shares being the spokesperson for NioCorp. How many personal shares has Jim Sims purchased/not sold using his own money??
Wait a minute Walter. Are you saying what I think you are saying?? Have Mark, Jim and Scott not purchased any NioCorp shares themselves?? Or do all the shares they own just been giving to them by NioCorp/Mark smith?? Walter can you or anyone answer this? I would assume Mark and Jim who have been part of NioCorp for a decade would have purchased the most shares using their own money. Is this true or not? Can anyone answer my question??? Thanks
Man th6565, you are making us jealous with your treasure chest of shares and warrants. You seem like a solid dude and I’m happy for ya buddy. I’d say even mark smiths most loyal supporters/defenders want rid of him as soon as possible. I’m praying for a buyout or resignation from both Mark and Jim sims. Do the right thing fellas and bow out graciously as our investment depends on it.
Keep pushing it old man... I know everything about you, lol. I agree, my spelling is not the greatest but somehow by the grace of God I have made something of my life. I still love ya buddy and sincerely hope you make it to 80 years of age because I enjoy your spunk. If we ever did meet I bet we would enjoy each others company and have a few laughs. I am hardly ever serious that loves to laugh and I have a big heart (unless provoked then I go bat shit crazy and forget what damage I just caused lol) Nothing in life is guaranteed(unless Mark Smith says mine construction is imminent lol) I have made it clear I love this mine but not the current management team minus Scott Honan. Walter, Why is this so hard for you to understand? So let me get this straight. Unless it is your idea or statement everyone else is wrong?? So basically, you believe you have all the answers, and we should just follow your advice 24/7?? That does not sound fair to me. I will always admit when I make a mistake because I am human. You are never too old to learn something new about yourself. I truly hope the best for this mine, and I hope the best for you and your family. Please have respect for others who do not share your exact opinions.
Here is what I am talking about
Post # 97142 'Come to Jesus meeting’ with Mark Smith I think Mark got the message. Dean understands what we expect from him. The messages both gentlemen received were at times pretty blunt and tactless.”
AO, I guess it’s how read how the conversation went. We were not there so I am just using the participants words. All I wanted was clarification from those that went to meeting. With our share price not doing well most of us are on edge. I am still 100% this mine will get built but also a 100% believer if Mark was not our CEO we would already be in production( how has Mark not been fired yet is the $800 million dollar question???). My opinion so take it for its worth, kind of like when Mark say’s we should have construction starting soon/imminent ☹ I know I am beating a dead horse but how the heck are we trading at .39 a share pre reverse split?? I have a lot of faith that everything will always work out, but I am in too deep. I wonder if Jim or Mark would loan me some money?? I will pay them back in imminent time lol. Anyway, hoping for EXIM News this year and Feasibility news as well. I hate my ex-GF brother for getting me in this stock lol. AO, Even if we do not agree you always put a smile on my grumpy face and I do appreciate you for it. :)

of 100838
Yesterday a group of important European investors had a “ Come to Jesus meeting’ with Mark Smith and Dean K. basically to understand moods, positions and path forward after the failed SPAC deal . Moreover to get to know Dean K.and his possible contributions to the financing of the company and to question and judge Mark Smith performance as Niocorps CEO. I will spare you the details. We had an open discussion and investors were able to vent all their issues and frustrations. I think Mark got the message. Dean understands what we expect from him. The messages both gentlemen received were at times pretty blunt and tactless. Let me just highlight the positive outcomes. Dean ‘knows’ project will be financed by commercial banks. No doubt, top project , hard assets, banks love it. Did put his reputation and experience as banker convincingly into the equation.
EXIM process ( 6-9 months) has three different elements in the Phase 1. First leg is
financial scrutiny by ‘ accountants’ This is a ‘go or no go’ for the next leg in the authorization process. This could be within around two weeks after submission ( in fact any moment). New for me. The next legs get into the technical side and underwriting criteria ( if I understood well). Russell addition will add awareness and volume ad well. Positive that the guys had the courage to come over and to listen. Convinced this thing will fly again soon.
Putz, I’m not retired and don’t have time to look at every post. But posters on this board that participated in the Belgium meeting that Walter set up. One or a few of the individuals commented that Mark was talked to ,scolded, questioned, on some issues is what they posted. Others on here asked exactly what was said at the meeting but Belgium boys did not elaborate further. Ask them Putz they were there we were not. . Personally I don’t think anything nefarious took place but would still like to know. It might not be anything but it must be something because those that attended commented about it. Either find the posts or ask them directly what was said at the meeting. That’s what I’m I’m trying to figure out as well. Walter you seem to be very quiet on this topic.
