Traditional owners say loss of Aboriginal artefacts and unpaid royalties show miner has lost its social licence
Traditional owners who lost hundreds of artefacts and haven’t been paid royalties under a deal brokered between the Western Australian government and Rio Tinto in the early 1990s say the mining company should face a judicial inquiry.
The federal parliamentary inquiry into Rio Tinto’s destruction of the 46,000-year-old Juukan Gorge rock shelters held its final public hearing on Friday.
