Mirarr join Federal Court action on Jabiluka
"We asked them to get ready to make Jabiluka part of the national park. Well, I'm ready now. Nobody is mining there, nothing. They should just go away, now, before it's too late.”

“We have always said no to this mine, government and mining companies told us they would mine it but we stayed strong and said no. Today I feel very happy that Jabiluka will be safe forever” - Yvonne Margarula

Huge news!! The Jabiluka special reservation announced by the NT Government today paves the way for the Albanese Government to incorporate this stunning cultural landscape within the Kakadu World Heritage Area once the mining lease expires in August.

The headline says it all.
Ahead of this weeks @Energy_Res_Aus agm in Darwin the Mirarr people are calling for no extension to the #Jabiluka Mineral Lease.
Simple. Sensible. Utterly overdue.
Dig time is over for #Kakadu#uranium - now its time for repair.

Mirarr Traditional Owners Yvonne Margarula and Corben Mudjandi met NT Chief Minister today. NTG committed to support Mirarr wishes to protect Jabiluka from mining. It’s not safe yet but we hope to see a decision before the NT election #stopjabiluka#staytuned
"This announcement proves ERA’s inability to manage the rehabilitation project, as well as underscoring the failure of the federal Department of Industry, Science and Resources to guide Ranger’s rehabilitation" CEO of GAC, Thalia van den Boogaard

Empty words with a $2 billion dollar price tag from Kakadu uranium miner
The only way to protect cultural heritage at Jabiluka is to include it in World Heritage listed Kakadu National Park

I’m loving the huge support for ‘Yes’ around the country. We only grow from here.
A majority of Australians voters & a majority of states will make history in ‘23:
The first time our Indigenous heritage is recognised in the constitution as foundational to who we are.
