... " VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Sept. 9, 2013) - Pretium Resources Inc. (TSX:PVG)(NYSE:PVG) ("Pretivm") is pleased to report additional underground drill results from the Valley of the Kings Bulk Sample Program (the "Program") currently underway, as well as additional exploration drilling in the Valley of the Kings extending beyond the area of the Program. Assays from both Program and non-Program exploration underground drilling continue to confirm the projection of high-grade gold mineralized domains, with numerous intersections encountering gold grading over 1,000 grams per tonne. (See Table 1 below for assays.)

Selected drill highlights include:

Hole VU-168 (Program hole) intersected 1,622 grams of gold uncut over 6.25 meters including 9,040 grams of gold uncut over 0.50 meters, 4,610 grams of gold uncut over 0.55 meters and 6,090 grams of gold uncut over 0.50 meters;
Hole VU-182 (Program hole intersecting Cleopatra Vein) intersected 714.8 grams of gold uncut over 8.04 meters including 9,900 grams of gold uncut over 0.50 meters and 1,535 grams of gold uncut over 0.50 meters;
Hole VU-136 (Exploration hole) intersected 1,100 grams of gold per tonne uncut over 0.50 meters.

Of the 15 high-grade gold intersections exceeding 1,000 grams per tonne, 11 were encountered as part of planned Program fan drilling, of which four intersected the Cleopatra Vein. Exploration drilling encountered three high-grade gold intersections exceeding 1,000 grams of gold per tonne within Domain 20 north of the 4268015N drill drift and one was encountered in an area projected to be an eastern extension of the Valley of the Kings (hole VU-136 noted above)." ...
