Crisis Hits U.S. Automotive Manufacturing Because of Chinese Restrictions on Heavy Rare Earth Exports
NioCorp's Elk Creek Project in Nebraska Could be the Fastest to Market With Made-in-America Heavy Rare Earth Products CENTENNIAL, CO / / June 4, 2025 / NioCorp Developments Ltd. ("NioCorp" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:NB) today released the following statement in response to news reports in the Wall Street Journal, New York Post, New York Times and other media outlets that U.S.-based automotive and other manufacturers may be forced to halt production because of shortages of high-performance rare earth magnets caused by China's decision to slow or stop exports of these magnets and the heavy rare earths they contain. "U.S.-based automotive production may have to halt production now because of shortages caused by China of high-performance permanent rare earth magnets and heavy rare earths," said Mark A. Smith, Executive Chairman and CEO of NioCorp. "Other manufacturers, including in the U.S. defense industrial base, are also in trouble. This a true crisis for our economy and our national defense. "Given that China is the sole source of 100% of processed heavy rare earths, President Xi holds all of the cards on this. The only real solution is to accelerate production in the U.S. of these strategic materials and reduce our current dependence on China. "Fortunately, NioCorp's Elk Creek Critical Minerals Project is fully permitted to start construction, which can begin immediately once project financing is finalized. The sooner we can start our three-year construction period, the sooner we can be in production of Made-in-America niobium, scandium, and titanium and potentially heavy rare earth oxides. But we need to move quickly so that U.S. manufacturing and our defense industrial base can start to see light at the end of this tunnel." For more information on NioCorp's Elk Creek Project, please see this: # # # FOR MORE INFORMATION: Jim Sims, Corporate Communications Officer, NioCorp Developments Ltd., (720) 334-7066, @NioCorp $NB #Niobium #Scandium #rareearth #neodymium #dysprosium #terbium #ElkCreek #China #exportban #Pentagon ABOUT NIOCORP NioCorp is developing a critical minerals project in Southeast Nebraska (the "Elk Creek Project") that is expected to produce niobium, scandium, and titanium. The Company also is evaluating the potential to produce several rare earths from the Elk Creek Project. Niobium is used to produce specialty alloys as well as High Strength, Low Alloy ("HSLA") steel, which is a lighter, stronger steel used in automotive, structural, and pipeline applications. Scandium is a specialty metal that can be combined with Aluminum to make alloys with increased strength and improved corrosion resistance. Scandium is also a critical component of advanced solid oxide fuel cells. Titanium is used in various lightweight alloys and is a key component of pigments used in paper, paint and plastics and is also used for aerospace applications, armor, and medical implants. Magnetic rare earths, such as neodymium, praseodymium, terbium, and dysprosium are critical to the making of neodymium-iron-boron magnets, which are used across a wide variety of defense and civilian applications.

IRH Strategic Rationale for the Acquisition This acquisition strengthens IRH's position in the global industrial metals sector, adding a majority interest in a highly productive and strategically important tin asset to its portfolio. Alphamin is one of the world's largest and highest-grade tin producers, playing a key role in supplying a critical raw material used in electronics, manufacturing, and industrial applications. Ali Alrashdi – CEO of IRH, stated:"Alphamin's strong production profile aligns with our strategy of securing interests in high-quality mining assets with long-term growth potential." Rob Still, Chairman of Tremont Master Holdings, commented:"Following Tremont's 12-year history in exploring, evaluating and then building and operating the Bisie mine, we are now pleased to transfer our ownership stake to another long-term investor who shares our vision for the operation and our commitment to the region." Closing of the Transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among others, the receipt of all regulatory and internal corporate approvals. Required Early Warning Disclosure Immediately prior to entering into the definitive agreement regarding the Transaction, IRH did not own any Common Shares and, upon completion of the Transaction, IRH will own 718,990,967 Common Shares, representing approximately 56% of the outstanding Common Shares. Tremont currently owns 729,124,559 Common Shares, representing approximately 57% of the outstanding Common Shares, and upon completion of the Transaction will continue to hold 10,133,592 Common Shares, representing approximately 0.8% of the outstanding Common Shares. IRH entered into the definitive agreement to acquire the Common Shares for investment purposes. IRH intends to review its investment in Alphamin on a continuing basis and depending upon various factors, including without limitation, the price and availability of Alphamin's securities, subsequent developments affecting Alphamin, its business and prospects, other investment and business opportunities available to IRH, general industry and economic conditions, the securities markets in general, tax considerations and other factors deemed relevant by IRH, IRH may (i) change its beneficial ownership of the Common Shares, whether through transactions effected in the open market, by privately negotiated agreements, or otherwise, or (ii) consider or propose, develop plans or take action which relate to or would result in, one or more of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) - (k) of Item 5 of Form 62-103F1 - Required Disclosure Under the Early Warning Requirements. Among other things, IRH may in the future consider the appropriateness of exploring one or more transactions to acquire the balance of the outstanding Common Shares after discussion with Alphamin's shareholders, board of directors and/or other stakeholders. Tremont holds its Common Shares for investment purposes. The disposition of Common Shares is being undertaken in the ordinary course of business for investment purposes. IRH and Tremont intend to complete the Transaction by way of a block trade over a stock exchange. The acquisition of the Common Shares is being made by way of private agreement with five or fewer third parties at a price per share not exceeding 115% of the market price of the Common Shares and in compliance with the "private agreement exemption" under section 4.2(1) of National Instrument 62-104 – Take-Over Bids and Issuer Bids.
