A 37-year-old letter from her father was “significant evidence” Australian #oligarch #GinaRinehart knew a #Pilbara #ironore site that has netted her company billions of dollars was meant to be shared with the family of another mining dynasty (maybe Australia too ?)

This was the video I meant to put, the full 360. Can see the road to Great Northern highway at the foot. Got a bit worried that 11 year old poodle Ronnie was struggling. But he was fine as long as we gave home a few breaks. Four legs probably helped in the rough stuff.

#westernaustralia #pilbara #Peertube so found a peer tube instance and published this video to it.
Not sure if this is the best way to share it.
View from the summit of Mt Robinson on the road between Newman and Port Hedland. Iron ore country! About an hours walk up a step and rocky path.

It is part of a channel, and perhaps following a channel is the federation thing? A lot to learn.

Here's an important story from my colleague Eliza Kloser:
"In the North West of Western Australia, 40,000 years ago, Indigenous Australians were carving stories, traditions and information onto what is now known as the world's oldest and largest rock art site.
Today, rock art scientists are in a war of words over how much evidence there is to suggest industrial emissions are damaging the sacred rock art."
Read the full story: https://www.ngaardamedia.com.au/news/tensions-rise-between-scientists-over-industrial-impact-on-murujugas-sacred-rock-art
Dissapointing coverage from ABC Pilbara earlier this week of the Murujuga Rock Art Monitoring program only gave one perspective on this important issue - conveniently the perspective that fits with the state government's line that 'industry and culture can coexist' at Murujuga.
As a news organisation dedicated to serving the Pilbara Aboriginal community, Ngaarda Media isn't pressured to fall into line with government and industry orthodoxies.

“The Perth ceramic artist and illustrator #JoanaPartyka and Ballardong Noongar man #DesmondBlurton said in a statement they had defaced the painting to draw attention to #Woodside ’s “ongoing desecration of sacred #Murujuga rock art” at the #Burrup peninsula, more than 1,200km north of #Perth in the #Pilbara.”
Down on his luck.
