VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – Aug. 15, 2016) – MAG Silver Corp. (TSX:MAG)(NYSE MKT:MAG) (“MAG” or the“Company”) reports the confirmation and extension of wide high-grade mineralization from the Deep Zone discovery on the Minera Juanicipio joint venture property (Fresnillo plc 56%; MAG 44%) previously announced April 23, 2015. Valdecañas is an en echelon vein system comprised of overlapping East and West Veins. The drill results from twelve (12) step-out exploration holes demonstrate continuity of high-grade, multi-stage precious and base metals mineralization now beneath both the East and the West Vein Bonanza Zones, as shown in the table and figures below. Mineralization is traceable over a strike length exceeding 800 metres and to a depth of 200 to 300 metres beneath the current resource estimate. Mineralization widths range from approximately 5 metres to over 29 metres with the thickest intercepts occurring where the dip of the veins steepen creating thickened “dilatant zones” (see Figures 3 & 4) that remain open to depth and laterally to the joint venture boundaries: approximately 450 metres to the west and over 700 metres to the east.
