WEST AUSTRALIANA ABORIGINAL MINING

“In 1992, the High Court of Australia ruled that the lands of Australia were not terra nullus and that native title rights existed for Australia’s Traditional Owners. What followed over the past 25 years has been a mixture of struggles and triumphs as cultural, legal, business and moral challenges presented themselves. Rio Tinto and Traditional Owners have had to come together to create a new way of doing business in this evolving landscape. Through open and honest conversations, Walking the Land Together captures the personal reflections of those directly involved through this time of major change.”-
