False Aboriginal sacred sites.Had it happen in the Gibson Desert. We got water from an Army bore when Aboriginals put rocks against the bore and told us it was a sacred site.Then had to go to Well 33 to get water. same Aboriginals came into camp and asked for Beer! Told them FO!

Labor government have sold off burial sites, breeding grounds of endangered species, polluted soils and water... None of which is reversible and not a cent comes from their pockets.

Unacceptable corporate conduct. Break this company in whatever courts are available.
