Xinxing Global Limited , a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zijin Mining Group Co.,Ltd (“Zijin”) made a subscription for 9.9% equity interest in Pretium Resources Inc. . a Canadian company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange.

On 27 March 2015, Pretium Resources Inc. ("Pretivm") is pleased to announce that it has been issued an Environmental Assessment Certificate for its Brucejack Project by the British Columbia Minister of the Environment and Minister of Energy and Mines.

The Ministers issued the certificate with conditions that have given them the confidence to conclude that the project will be constructed, operated and decommissioned in a way that ensures no significant adverse effects are likely to occur. Pretivm will address these conditions in advance of the start of mine construction which it expects to begin this summer.

The environmental review process, which was concluded within the legislated timeframe, was led by British Columbia's Environmental Assessment Office ("BCEAO"). The process provides for significant opportunities for Aboriginal groups, vernment agencies and the public to provide input on the potential for environmental, economic, social, heritage and health effects from a proposed project.

The federal review of the Brucejack Project by the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency is nearing completion, with an expected referral to the Minister of the Environment later this spring.
