This is what Bruce Madu (Director of the Mineral Development Office within BC’s Ministry of Energy, Mines, and Resources) had to say about Pretium and Seabridge in January this year:

"Seabridge Gold and Pretium Resources are investigating their options to combine their adjacent KSM and Snowfield projects. Manu said he wouldn’t be surprised to see some “significant shifts in terms of development and resources at those projects” in the coming year."
