Vancouver, October 29, 2012 – Canasil Resources Inc. (“Canasil”, TSX-V: CLZ , DB Frankfurt: 3CC) announces that MAG Silver Corp. (TSX: MAG, NYSE-MKT: MVG, “MAG”) has confirmed that the Phase 2 drill program has started and is currently in progress at Canasil’s La Esperanza  silver-lead-zinc project in Durango and Zacatecas States, Mexico. The planned program includes up to 3,500 metres of diamond drilling to test silver-lead-zinc veins in the northwest of the project area. This drill program will be part of the CAD$ 1,500,000 exploration expenditures required between September 2012 and September 2013 under the option agreement for MAG to earn a 60% interest in the La Esperanza project.

About La Esperanza:

The La Esperanza project covers 68,954 hectares, located in the Mexican Silver Belt in northern Zacatecas and southern Durango States. This recognized world-class silver belt hosts some of the world’s largest and highest grade silver deposits and operating mines. The La Esperanza project is close to a number of active mines such as Pan American Silver’s La Colorada and First Majestic Silver’s La Parrilla mines. The project covers multiple vein occurrences and alteration zones over a 20 kilometre strike length along a prospective SE-NW trend where the results of an airborne geophysical survey conducted by MAG and drilling to date by MAG and Canasil indicate potential for hosting a very large mineralized system.

The project is under an option agreement whereby MAG can earn a 60% interest by completing CAD$ 5,000,000 in cumulative exploration expenditures by September 1, 2014, (CAD$ 1,624,393 completed to June 30, 2012) and making a further CAD$ 200,000 cash payment to Canasil by September 1, 2013.
