@benwyatt @MarkMcGowanMP Appreciate that, although it shouldn't prevent the government from responding under the current laws to ensure no further destruction occurs. @theprojecttv @MarkMcGowanMP #garnkinynotgranite

It’s been two months since Rio Tinto blew up a part of Australia’s history in Western Australia. But now, a thousand kilometres away in East Kimberley, another mining company stands accused of damaging a sacred site, protected by the government.

@benwyatt @MarkMcGowanMP Appreciate that, although it shouldn't hinder the government from responding under the current laws to ensure no further destruction is allowed.

@theprojecttv This is devastating. How many criminal acts towards our first nation people will it take for the government to intervene & charge these mining companies as the criminals they are .
I'm disgusted!

Today, we join 35 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and human rights organisations to call on @RankBHR to strip @RioTinto of its status as a global #humanrights leader, following the company’s blasting of a 46,000 year old Aboriginal sacred site. See the letter below.

ALHR joins with 35 organisations calling for @RioTinto Tinto to be stripped of its status as a global human rights leader following the destruction of #JuukanGorge https://t.co/nNhYoGvLDv @KerenHRLC @KLC1978 #bizhumanrights

[KimberleyLandCouncil @KLC1978]

@RioTinto is the highest ranked miner by @RankBHR this is misleading investors and other stakeholders who rely on the Benchmark to provide ­robust, credible information on companies’ human rights records. https://t.co/AdqNM8d6ao

Destruction of sacred site in East Kimberley. @benwyatt needs to promptly complete his investigation, prosecute the operators and make meaningful change to the Heritage Act. More at https://t.co/HnFqeGouob #garnkinynotgranite #mabeljuli

[KimberleyLandCouncil @KLC1978]

CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT PLACES CONTINUE TO BE DESTROYED - The Aboriginal Heritage Act is failing and the State is not prosecuting those who break the law. @InsidersABC
