[{"type":"text","content":"Sojourn Finds Multi-Element Geochemical Anomalies Associated with Geophysical Targets at Oweegee Dome ProjectVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 7, 2017) - Sojourn Exploration Inc. (TSXV: SOJ) (\"Sojourn\" or the \"Company\") today reports its 2017 first pass exploration program located multi-element stream sediment and/or soil anomalies associated with several of the historic volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) and porphyry geophysical targets at its Oweegee Dome Project (\"Oweegee\"). Oweegee is one of two key Golden Triangle properties the Company optioned from Millrock Resources Inc. in August 2017 in conjunction with $1.1M financing and 1:3 share consolidation. The 2017 Oweegee stream sediment and targeted soil sampling was Sojourn's first pass ground exploration program through the bulk of the 312 square kilometer Oweegee property and has exceeded management expectations. The stream sediments and soils suggest the area underlying and/or draining three of the five VMS Airborne Versatile Time Domain Electro Magnetics (VTEM) target zones are anomalous in Ag, Pb and Zn, while two of the thirteen VTEM survey porphyry target zones are anomalous in Au and Cu. More importantly, this program also found multi-element stream sediment and soil anomalous in the area hosting the Deltaic zone and its historic mineralization.\"We're very pleased with these initial results in this large and prospective property,\" stated Interim CEO Tim Henneberry. \"We expect the freshly exposed bedrock resulting from recent retreating glaciers and snowfields will greatly assist in 'ground truthing' the key identified anomalies. We plan to aggressively follow up with ground prospecting and sampling programs in 2018 to establish drill targets and feel this new program should provide some interesting times for Sojourn and its shareholders.\" The 2017 Oweegee program consisted of stream sediment sampling at variable distances along the accessible drainages throughout the property and targeted soil sampling over six of the key geophysical anomalies. A total of 464 stream sediment sites were sampled and 324 soils were collected.
