Item 1.  Security and Issuer.

This Schedule 13D relates to common shares, no par value (the “Common Shares”), of Pretium Resources Inc., a British Columbia corporation (the “Issuer”), whose principal executive offices are located at 1600, 570 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3P1, Canada.

Item 2.  Identity and Background.

(a) This Schedule 13D is being jointly filed by Zijin Mining Group Co., Ltd., a joint stock limited company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China with limited liability (“Zijin”), Gold Mountains (H.K.) International Mining Company Limited, a corporation existing under the laws of Hong Kong, S.A.R. (“Gold Mountains”)  and XinXing Global Limited, a corporation existing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“XinXing”, and collectively with Gold Mountains and Zijin, the “Reporting Persons”). XinXing is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Gold Mountains and Gold Mountains is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Zijin. Neither Zijin nor Gold Mountains directly owns any securities of the Issuer. However, as a result of the relevant ownership structure of the Reporting Persons, Zijin and Gold Mountains may be deemed to beneficially own the securities of the Issuer directly owned by XinXing. Each of XinXing, Gold Mountains and Zijin are mining companies, with Zijin being a large-scale Chinese state-owned mining group that is one of the largest gold producers, second largest mineral copper producer, and an important zinc, tungsten and iron ore producer in China.

(b) The address of the principal place of business and office of each of the Reporting Persons is c/o Zijin Mining Group Co., Ltd., 19/F, Haifu Center, 599 Sishui Dao, Huli, Xiamen 361016, China.

(c) See Item (f).

(d) During the past five years, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of their respective executive officers or directors, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors).

(e) During the past five years, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of their respective executive officers or directors, has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which such person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

(f) The name, citizenship, business address, principal business occupation or employment of each of the directors and executive officers of each of the Reporting Persons are set forth on Schedule A hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

On December 8, 2014, the Issuer entered into a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), with XinXing pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to issue and sell to XinXing (the “Private Placement”)  an aggregate of 12,836,826 Common Shares at CDN$6.30 per Common Share for an aggregate purchase price of CDN$80,872,004.   The Private Placement closed on January 16, 2015. The funds to purchase the Common Shares by XinXing were borrowed from its shareholder Gold Mountains, with three-year term and annual interest rate of 3 month Libor (in Canadian dollars) plus 1%.

References to, and descriptions of, the Subscription Agreement as set forth in this Item 3 and elsewhere in this Schedule 13D are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Subscription Agreement filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

The Reporting Persons acquired the Common Shares reported herein solely for investment purposes. The Private Placement is subject to the terms of the Subscription Agreement attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by reference.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, following the closing (the “Closing”) of the Private Placement and for as long as XinXing and its affiliates hold 4.75% of the total number of issued and outstanding Common Shares (on a fully-diluted basis excluding any convertible securities which are issued or issuable following December 8, 2014 pursuant to an equity compensation plan in respect of the directors, officers or employees of the Issuer), XinXing is entitled to designate one individual (the “XinXing Nominee”) to be nominated and, if elected, to serve as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer for a term expiring not earlier than the Issuer’s next annual meeting of shareholders at which directors of the Issuer are to be elected provided that the XinXing Nominee consents in writing to serve as a director and is eligible under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) to serve as a director. The XinXing Nominee was appointed to the Board of Directors of the Issuer on January 16, 2015. At the first annual meeting of shareholders following the end of the term of the XinXing Nominee at which directors of the Issuer are to be elected, and at each meeting of shareholders thereafter at which directors are to be elected, the Issuer agreed to cause the XinXing Nominee to be included in the slate of nominees proposed by the Issuer to the shareholders for election as directors. The Issuer agreed to use all reasonable efforts to cause the election of the XinXing Nominee, including soliciting proxies in favor of the election of the XinXing Nominee in the event the Issuer intends to solicit any such proxies in connection with a meeting of shareholders.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer from time to time. Subject to the limitations set forth herein and depending upon (i) the price and availability of the Common Shares, (ii) subsequent developments affecting the Issuer, (iii) the Issuer’s business and prospects, (iv) other investment and business opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, (v) general stock market and economic conditions, (vi) tax considerations, and (vii) other factors deemed relevant, the Reporting Persons may decide to may acquire additional Common Shares or securities of the Issuer, (ii) dispose of any or all of its securities of the Issuer or (iii) enter into privately negotiated derivative transactions with institutional counterparties to hedge the market risk of some or all of its positions in the securities of the Issuer.

Except as described in this Schedule 13D, no Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which relates to, or could result in, any of the events referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. However, the Reporting Persons will continue to review the business of the Issuer and, depending upon one or more of the factors referred to above, may in the future propose that the Issuer take one or more such actions.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

The following percentages are based upon information set forth in the Subscription Agreement, in which the Issuer represented that there were 116,828,081 Common Shares issued and outstanding as of December 8, 2014, prior to the issuance of 12,836,826 Common Shares to XinXing.

(a) As of the date of filing this Schedule 13D, XinXing is the holder of record of 12,836,826 Common Shares, representing 9.68% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the issuer. Gold Mountains directly owns 100% of XinXing and therefore may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the 12,836,826 Common Shares held of record by XinXing, representing 9.68% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the issuer. Gold Mountains disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares shown as beneficially owned and held of record by XinXing, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein. Zijin directly owns 100% of Gold Mountains and therefore may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the 12,836,826 Common Shares held of record by XinXing, representing 9.68% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the issuer. Zijin disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares shown as beneficially owned and held of record by XinXing, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein.

(b) Each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to exercise the shared voting and dispositive authority over 12,836,826 Common Shares held of record by XinXing.

(c) Except for the transactions described in this Schedule 13D, no Reporting Person has effected any transactions in the Issuer’s Common Shares during the 60 days preceding the date of this Schedule 13D.

(d) Not applicable.

(e) Not applicable.
