Pretivm lifts travel restrictions at Brucejack

Mining company Pretium Resources (Pretivm) has lifted travel restrictions at the Brucejack mine that were implemented after a Covid-19 outbreak was declared last week.

At the mine camp, in British Columbia, 453 tests were conducted, showing that the large majority of positive cases were restricted to a limited cluster.

The company is managing 21 cases of Covid-19 among employees and contractors at Brucejack.

Travel has resumed with enhanced protocols and procedures, Pretivm says.

Throughout the outbreak, mine and mill production have continued.
