A community group is celebrating after the state government refused to let a mining company clear habitat vital to the endangered Carnaby's black cockatoo. But the mining company has vowed to appeal.

Corks fly off champagne bottles and the Ravensthorpe farmer is on his feet, filling plastic flutes, as the toasts begin.

It said it was surprised by the refusal given the "significant body of work" it has done to put "avoidance, mitigation, and rehabilitation" measures in place to minimise environmental impacts. He said the industry was responding with "raised arms and loud shouts", given the pressing need to increase renewable energy sources.

"We do not know, today, where these people were actually shot and left to die and take their last breath," Wudjari Nyungar elder Doc Reynolds said.
