London, United Kingdom, 2nd Mar 2026 — A new 2025 Luxury Fashion Sustainability Benchmark released by sustainability consultancy Context reveals a growing divide between the depth of environmental disclosures and social transparency. The benchmark analyses the public sustainability and ESG reporting of 10 of the world’s largest luxury fashion companies, including Burberry, Chanel, LVMH, and Kering.

Social Sustainability: Placing People at the Centre

The benchmark assesses how effectively luxury fashion companies identify, manage, and report on key sustainability issues across five categories. It evaluates reporting maturity and transparency, rather than actual sustainability performance. The findings highlight the growing importance of developing a more holistic sustainability strategy that places people at the centre. While companies are integrating actionable targets and goals related to their material issues, such as climate, transparency doesn’t yet extend far enough to the people behind the products.

“As regulatory scrutiny increases and expectations rise, credible leadership will depend on companies being as open about social impacts, risks and opportunities as they are about emissions and other environmental topics,” said Helen Fisher, Managing Director at Context.

Key findings from the 2025 Luxury Fashion Sustainability Benchmark include:

• Communicating a strategy: All luxury fashion companies provided updates on their sustainability strategy, but the extent to which it covered the company’s most material environmental, social, and governance issues varied.
• Double materiality: 40% had communicated their impacts on planet and society, and the financial implications of those impacts, by reporting the results of a double materiality assessment.
• Governance: Sustainability governance is well-established at both the Board and executive levels, but detailed ESG risk management disclosures are sparse.
• Climate metrics: Luxury fashion companies tend to report more extensive climate-related data, but transparent communication on setbacks or underperformance is limited.
• Nature: Nature reporting is slowly rising, with half following science-backed guidance from the Science Based Targets Network (SBTN). Only one company has SBTN validated freshwater and land targets.
  +1
• Social impact: Reporting on social issues is weaker than on environmental and governance topics, indicating potential blind spots in supply chain risk.
• Reporting frameworks: Most luxury fashion companies report against at least one sustainability reporting framework, such as the Global Reporting Initiative Standards, commonly used by companies to publicly report their impacts on the planet, economy, and society.

PillowLinks.co has launched their structured pillow links and SEO press release services designed to help businesses build a natural, diversified backlink profile.

United States, 2nd Mar 2026 – PillowLinks.co has announced the launch of its structured pillow links and press release service for SEO, designed to help businesses build a natural backlink profile and support long-term search visibility.

The service focuses on foundational backlinks, often called “pillow links,” which help search engines better understand and trust a website. These links use branded anchor text, naked URLs, and generic anchors to create a balanced and diversified link profile.

According to the company, pillow links play a key role in early-stage SEO campaigns, especially for new websites, local businesses, and exact match domains. By starting with non-aggressive, brand-focused backlinks, businesses can build authority in a safer and more sustainable way.

“Our goal is to help businesses build their SEO the right way from the start,” said Michael Harrington, media contact for PillowLinks.co. “Before moving into aggressive link building, you need a strong foundation. Pillow links create that base and support long-term rankings.”

The pillow links service includes social profiles, Web 2.0 properties, and optional full and partial citations when NAP details are provided. Each campaign includes a mix of nofollow and dofollow links, with three rounds of indexing submissions included for faster visibility.

In addition to foundational backlinks, PillowLinks.co offers an SEO-focused press release service. Unlike traditional PR campaigns, this service is built specifically to strengthen brand signals and generate authority links. Each press release is distributed across major media and news platforms, generating approximately 450 to 600 backlinks pointing to the client’s website.

PillowLinks.co positions its services as a practical solution for businesses that want to improve crawlability, build brand trust, and support long-term search engine rankings without relying on risky link tactics.

About PillowLinks.co

PillowLinks.co is an SEO service provider focused on foundational backlink building and SEO press release distribution. The company works with local businesses, national brands, and agencies seeking structured link building processes designed to support long-term search performance.

West Red Lake Gold Mines reported drill results from the 904 Complex in Lower Austin and South Austin, at the Madsen Mine located in the Red Lake Gold District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada.

Canada, 2nd Mar 2026– Global Stocks News – Sponsored content disseminated on behalf of West Red Lake Gold. On February 25, 2026, West Red Lake Gold Mines (TSXV: WRLG) (OTCQB: WRLGF) reported drill results from the 904 Complex in Lower Austin and South Austin, at the Madsen Mine located in the Red Lake Gold District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada.

“We view the 904 Complex in a similar light as the 4447 area in South Austin – where drilling in 2025 uncovered very high-grade lenses of gold mineralization and now constitutes a significant portion of the ounces in our 2026 mine plan,” stated Shane Williams, President & CEO of West Red Lake Gold

“The Lower Austin 904 Complex has seen very little mining historically, leaving the main mineralized zone mostly intact,” added Williams. “That is expected to allow for larger stopes and more efficient development and extraction from this high-grade area.”

“These assay results are from a drill program operating from the 13 Level, about 650 meters deep,” Will Robinson, VP of Exploration for West Red Lake Gold told Guy Bennett, the CEO of Global Stocks News (GSN). “That’s the deepest part of the mine that we have access to right now.  It only became available to us three months ago.”

“The 904 Complex has not been historically mined,” confirmed Robinson. “That’s unusual in our current production scenario – where we’re operating at higher levels, designing the mine plan around historic stopes. In that environment, you have to get creative. We are mining profitably in South Austin, because of high-grade mineralisation, a robust geologic model informing a sophisticated mine plan, complimented by US$5,000 per ounce gold.”

Situated at the bottom of Main Austin, the 904 Complex is a lobe about 200 square meters. Historically, there was a ventilation raise passing through this lobe that didn’t allow miners to extract material, because it would have compromised their ventilation and access.

“Operating diesel machinery underground can create a workflow bottleneck, because of the need for ventilation,” Robinson told GSN. “It limits the amount of equipment that can safely be deployed in a given area of the mine. The site team is currently installing a new electrical substation on Level 13, which will provide adequate power and ventilation to continue advancing the main ramp in South Austin and develop into the 904 Complex. This added power will facilitate further dewatering – we’re dewatered down to 17-level now, we are going deeper where the highest-grade gold lenses are often found at Red Lake.”

“Now that we’re at 13 Level, with a new power source coming online, we plan to go laterally to access the entire eastern portion of the orebody which remains vastly underexplored,” explained Robinson. “This drift will open up a new area for Jill Christmann the Chief Geologist at Madsen, to explore. Jill oversees drilling, grade reconciliation, and geological workflows at the mine. The 13 Level East Drive will give Jill’s team an entirely new hunting ground to explore, develop and define.”

In the Interactive 3D Video below, viewers can follow the history of the Madsen Mine from initial production in 1936 through to initial closure in 1976. Track the progression of WLRG and Madsen Mine restart from camp construction to bulk sampling, tailings dam lift, underground development and the reactivation of the crusher and mill.

Catch a glimpse of the proposed access and mine design for the nearby Fork satellite deposit and new “13 Level East Drive” concept, which is expected to add significant growth and optionality to site operations.

Visualize the Rowan PEA through underground development, and mine design that is planned to produce an average of 35,230 ounces per year over a 5-year mine life at an average diluted grade of 8.0 g/t gold.

A combined PFS for Madsen and Rowan is planned for Q3 2026, which is expected to capture the scale and full value of WRLG’s future gold production hub in Red Lake, Ontario.

2025 was a “ramp-up year” that saw the Madsen Mine pour 20,147 ounces of gold sold at an average price of US$3,650 per ounce for gross proceeds of US$73 million.

WRLG declared commercial production at the mine on January 1, 2026. Since then, production has increased, and the price of gold has surged 20%, from US$4,330 per ounce to US$5,200 per ounce.

Red Lake gold systems have deep roots, and WRLG believes the vein systems at Madsen and Rowan will continue to grow with additional drilling. WRLG has a portfolio of 100% owned quality assets in a premier jurisdiction supporting its vision of becoming a 100,000 ounce per year gold producer in Red Lake by 2028.

The technical information presented in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Will Robinson, P.Geo., Vice President of Exploration for West Red Lake Gold and the Qualified Person for exploration at the West Red Lake Project, as defined by NI 43-101. Mr. Robinson is not independent of WRLG. The PEA and Mineral Resource disclosure summarized herein is derived from the independent technical report prepared by Fuse Advisors Inc.

The Madsen Mine deposit presently hosts a National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) Indicated resource of 1.65 million ounces (“Moz”) of gold grading 7.4 g/t Au within 6.9 Mt, and an Inferred resource of 0.37 Moz of gold grading 6.3 g/t Au within 1.8 Mt. Mineral resources are estimated at a cut-off grade of 3.38 g/t Au and a gold price of US$1,800/oz.

1 The PEA is preliminary in nature; it includes Inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves; there is no certainty that the PEA results will be realized.

2 There can be no assurance that drilling at Rowan will result in the conversion of Inferred resources to Indicated; any such upgrade will depend on the results of the drill program and subsequent resource estimation by a Qualified Person. 

3 There can be no assurance that the planned combined PFS will support the development of the Madsen Mine and Rowan projects as a single operation or using common infrastructure. Any such determination will depend on the outcome of such PFS and subsequent technical and economic studies.
