Niocan Inc.
Niocan has a can-do attitude when it comes to mining niobium. The company explores for niobium, a talc-like mineral that is used in the production of steel and superalloys, at its Oka ferroniobium project in Quebec. Niobium competes with other minerals such as vanadium and molybdenum. Niocan company is looking to get authorization from the government to begin production at its Oka project. In 2005 co-founder Rene Dufour retired as chairman and CEO. Founded in 1995, Niocan is 20%-owned by Electrum Ferrometals.
