9 years after Google employee's death, foundation strives to empower women
Vanessa Marcotte went for a run one afternoon in August 2016 in Princeton and never returned home. On Aug. 7, 2016, the Google employee's body was found in the woods off Brooks Station Road, close to her mother's home. Her body was found less than a mile away from her mother's home, partially naked and burned. Six years later, Angelo Colon-Ortiz pleaded guilty to her murder. Nine years after Marcotte was found, on VTM Day, the Vaness T. Marcotte Foundation works to honor her memory and strives to empower women. "On this VTMday, we invite you to honor Vanessa by showing us how you (live for Vanessa)," the foundation stated Thursday in a Facebook post. 'Whether it's a random act of kindness, a walk in nature, a beach day or time on the yoga mat — do something today that celebrates life, strength and joy." The support that the foundation has received has led to it hosting over 200 self-defense and violence prevention workshops; reaching out to over 5,000 people using its safety education programs; partnering with over 50 schools, colleges and organizations; and raising awareness across all 50 states, the foundation stated in a separate post. Resources and programs, from safety tips for runners and walkers to self-defense, are offered through the foundation's website. The foundation also offers programming for mentoring young girls and helping boys to fend off future negative behaviors. The foundation has raised over $1 million to go toward these program and resource opportunities, according to its website. 'More than 600 women are assaulted each day,' the foundation's website reads. 'We need to fight back. We need to step up. We need to advocate for a world where women are safe and free to live boldly and fearlessly.' The foundation also offers volunteering opportunities and chances to join VTM running teams to spread awareness and raise money, as well as educate the public. Through all that it offers, the foundation hopes people will join their cause and help continue to spread awareness and keep women safe. 'By joining this important cause, we can work together to make a difference,' the website states. 'And we know that Vanessa would want us to do so.'

SAGA Metals Completes Strategic Infrastructure Upgrades in Preparation for Major Drill Program at the 100% Owned Radar Titanium Property in Labrador, Canada
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SAGA Metals Corp. ('SAGA' or the 'Company') (TSXV: SAGA) (OTCQB: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H), a North American exploration company focused on critical mineral discovery, is pleased to announce SAGA's team has completed the 4 km access trail along the core of the Trapper zone providing necessary access for future drill programs and exploration activities. The access trail is located to run along the surface trend of extensive outcropping and sub-cropping oxide layers. In addition, a 25-tonne excavator from Gladiator drilling has opened 3 trenches across the two significant aeromagnetic anomalies of the Trapper zone, exposing a total of 504m2 (5,425ft2) of semi-massive to massive vanadiferous titanomagnetite ('VTM') mineralization. Figure 1 : Radar Pro ject's Trapper Zone depicting two aeromagnetic anomalies and the trend of the inferred oxide layering. The Trapper trail will support a new diamond drilling program. SAGA has demonstrated the reliability of the regional airborne magnetic surveys after ground-truthing and drilling in the 2024 and 2025 field programs. Located just 10 km from Cartwright, Labrador, the 24,175-hectare Radar Titanium Project is supported by existing infrastructure, including road access, a deep-water port, an airstrip, and nearby hydroelectric power. The property completely encompasses the Dykes River Intrusive Complex, a previously underexplored layered mafic body. With a large oxide layering thickness, a near-monomineralic Vanadiferous Titanomagnetite (VTM) composition, and extensive mineral tenures, the Radar Titanium Project shows the potential to become a globally significant VTM project. Figure 2: Radar Property map, depicting aeromagnetic anomalies, oxide layering and the site of the 2025 drill program. The Property is well serviced by road access and is conveniently located near the town of Cartwright, Labrador. A compilation of historical aeromagnetic anomalies is shown. SAGA has demonstrated the reliability of the regional airborne magnetic surveys after ground-truthing and drilling in the 2024 and 2025 field programs. 2025 Summer Field Program – Road Maintenance, Trail Access, Trenching and Geophysics The 2025 summer field program marked a critical phase in advancing the exploration efficiency and cost-effectiveness of future drill programs and exploration activities in the western portion of the property, including the highly prospective Trapper zone. Key components of this program include: The first step for the team was to perform maintenance on the Cartwright Forest Service road, which had not seen regular clearing for the last few decades. This work included: Figure 3.1: Completed maintenance on the Cartwright Forest Service Road Figure 3.2: Start of the Trapper Zone Trail, viewed from the lay down along the Cartwright Forest Service Road 2. Trapper Trail Construction: The next phase of infrastructure development aimed to upgrade the pre-existing snowmobile/ATV trail into a drill rig-compatible trail, which gains access to the heart of the Trapper zone and extends past the two major anomalies. This work included: Figure 3.3: Excavator and work truck located along the Trapper Trail over the northern portion of the oxide layer trend within the Trapper zone. 3. Trapper & Hawkeye Zone Trenching: The trenches within the Trapper zone were identified as targets due to extremely high readings on the GSM-19 Magnetometer. On numerous occasions, the geophysics team had the GSM-19 Magnetometer Instruments reading well beyond the highest highs of the Hawkeye zone, which reached 74,000 nt. Upon trenching these locations, it was discovered that the presence of semi-massive to massive VTM – oxide layering outcrops were not far from the surface. A total of 504m2 (5,425ft2) was trenched across the oxide layering strike in the north and south anomalies of the Trapper zone. Work is ongoing to complete pressure washing of the outcrops, clearing away dirt and debris to better show the structure and mineralogy of these exposures.

Figure 4.2: Semi-massive to Massive VTM oxide layer outcrop in the southern anomaly at the Trapper zone. 4. Trapper Zone Geophysics: As previously reported, SAGA mobilized two geophysical crews to complete magnetic and VLF-electromagnetic survey coverage across the north and south anomalies within the Trapper Zone. SAGA's geophysics team has continued to report strong magnetic detection levels over both anomalies, requiring recalibration of the geophysical instruments. The team is excited to report that readings have exceeded the 74,000 nT detected in the Hawkeye zone, with readings recorded as high as 115,498 nT over the northern Trapper zone anomaly and over 113,000 nT over the southern Trapper zone anomaly. In some cases, the instruments reached the maximum level of detection (120,000 nt). Figure 5: Reading off of the Magnetometer GSM-19 geophysical instrument recording 115,498 nT over the Tapper zone. SAGA's geophysics team is working to complete the remaining lines over the coming days and will be the subject of a future new release in the near term. Michael Garagan, CGO & Director of SAGA stated: 'This summer has been a critical juncture in the development of the project and preparation for efficient and cost-effective drilling in the future. We believe that with the infrastructure upgrades completed our drilling cost per meter has come down significantly, setting us on the right track to reach our goal of approximately $300-$350/m. SAGA's plans and objectives over the next 12-month are to complete a 10,000-15,000-meter drill program, setting the stage for the completion of a maiden resource calculation. A project like this, with homogenous geochemistry and large oxide layers, can move towards a resource calculation with 100 m drill spacing over the 2.5 km stretch of the entire oxide layering strike that runs continuously through the Trapper zone.'
