Funding was provided by the National Landcare Program (NLP), Meat Research Corporation (MRC) and Agriculture Western Australia. The study was conducted at three locations in three different Land Conservation Districts in the Pilbara. Steers for the trial were provided by twenty-one stations, namely Coolawanyah, De Grey, Ethel Creek, Glenflorrie, Hamersley, Hillside, Karratha, Kooline, Limestone, Mallina, Mandora, Marillana, Mininer, Mt Stuart, Red Hill, Wallal Downs, Wallareenya, Warrawagine, Wyloo, Yalleen and Yarraloola. The trial provides a large amount of data, at times in a complex manner. It was felt necessary to present all of this information as it will have direct relevance to participants and act as a useful reference to many others associated with the pastoral industry not only in the Pilbara.

  • Looking West: a Guide to Aboriginal Records in Western Australia
    A Guide to Aboriginal Records in Western Australia The Records Taskforce of Western Australia ¨ ARTIST Jeanette Garlett Jeanette is a Nyungar Aboriginal woman. She was removed from her family at a young age and was in Mogumber Mission from 1956 to 1968, where she attended the Mogumber Mission School and Moora Junior High School. Jeanette later moved to Queensland and gained an Associate Diploma of Arts from the Townsville College of TAFE, majoring in screen printing batik. From 1991 to present day, Jeanette has had 10 major exhibitions and has been awarded four commissions Australia-wide. Jeanette was the recipient of the Dick Pascoe Memorial Shield. Bill Hayden was presented with one of her paintings on a Vice Regal tour of Queensland. In 1993 several of her paintings were sent to Iwaki in Japan (sister city of Townsville in Japan). A recent major commission was to create a mural for the City of Armadale (working with Elders and students from the community) to depict the life of Aboriginal Elders from 1950 to 1980. Jeanette is currently commissioned by the Mundaring Arts Centre to work with students from local schools to design and paint bus shelters — the established theme is the four seasons. Through her art, Jeanette assists Aboriginal women involved in domestic and traumatic situations, to express their feelings in order to commence their journey of healing. Jeanette currently lives in Northam with her family and is actively working as an artist and art therapist in that region. Jeanette also lectures at the O’Connor College of TAFE. Her dream is to have her work acknowledged and respected by her peers and the community.

  • A Report on the Viability of Pastoral Leases in the Northern Rangelands Region Based on Biophysical Assessment
    A Report on the Viability of Pastoral Leases in the Northern Rangelands Region Based on Biophysical Assessment Dr PE Novelly - South Perth Mr D Warburton - Northam 7 September 2012 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Kimberley and Pilbara comprise Western Australia’s Northern Rangelands. The pastoral industry of both regions is becoming increasingly similar, with most formerly sheep producing properties in the Pilbara moving to cattle, more control and manipulation of herds, and enterprises with a higher proportion of breeders. The projected viability (based on a capacity to carry a minimum number of stock in an ecologically sustainable manner) of pastoral leases in this region was analysed through assessment of biophysical parameters, in particular the inherent landscape productivity and its capacity to be managed in an ecologically sustainable manner, and the impact of current rangeland condition on grazing capacity. Analysis was conducted on individual pastoral leases The effect of leases being run in combination with other leases in one business, or access to substantial non-pastoral income was ignored. Of the 154 pastoral leases assessed, applying a threshold viability level of a potential carrying capacity of 4,000 cattle units, but ignoring reduced carrying capacity caused by degraded rangeland condition: • 16 leases in the Kimberley and 37 leases in the Pilbara do not reach the viability threshold when all land systems within the lease area are considered; • 18 Kimberley leases and 40 Pilbara leases do not meet the viability threshold when land systems whose pastoral potential is so low that investment in management and infrastructure is considered non-viable are excluded. The background and arguments behind this assessment are discussed.

Minister for Mines 89686-1 Since the publication of the last issue of this booklet in 1966 a major expansion of mineral production in Western Australia has been achieved. Deposits of iron, nickel, natural gas, bauxite, heavy mineral sands, uranium and diamond are now being worked or are known to be commercial. Over the period 1966 to 1971, following the initial discovery of nickel sulphide at Kambalda, a speculative boom in base metal exploration developed that could only be likened to the gold rush days around the turn of the century. Although not all of the exploration activity in this period was well directed, many new discoveries were made as a result of the ready availability of risk capital. In the wake of the boom it is mainly the true prospectors that remain-the individual, to whom the still sparsely populated areas of the State hold an irresistible appeal and the chance of rich bonanza, and the established and dedicated mining companies for whom exploration is a necessary and vital part of the minerals industry. 1 am confident that the persistence of these prospectors will be rewarded with yet further discoveries of economic mineral deposits. Western Australia, with an area of over 2.5 million square kilometres, has a wide diversity of rocks representing all geological periods, and vast areas have been incompletely prospected. This booklet presents an up to date account of the minerals that are, or have been, economically exploited in Western Australia.

INTRODUCTION This is the third in a series of regional avifaunas covering Western Australia. The first dealt with the Kimberley Division (Storr 1980, Spec. Pubis West. Aust. Mus. No. 11), and the second with the north-eastern interior ofthe State (Storr 1981, Rec. West. Aust. Mus. 9: 65-99). The scope of the present work is the same as the earlier papers, i.e. information is given for each species on local distribution, ecological status, relative abundance, habitat preferences, breeding season (defined by the months in which eggs are laid), clutch size (prefixed by C for eggs and nestlings, B fpr broods that have'left the nest but are still dependent), and movements.

  • Birds of the Pilbara Region, Including Seas and Offshore Islands, Western Australia: Distribution, Status and Historical Changes
    Records of the Western Australian Museum, Supplement 78: 343–441 (2013). Birds of the Pilbara region, including seas and offshore islands, Western Australia: distribution, status and historical changes R.E. Johnstone1*, Allan H. Burbidge2 and J.C. Darnell1 1 Department of Terrestrial Zoology, Western Australian Museum, Locked Bag 49, Welshpool DC, Western Australia 6986, Australia. 2 Department of Environment and Conservation, PO Box 51, Wanneroo, Western Australia 6946, Australia. * Corresponding author: email: [email protected] Abstract – The geographic range, status and breeding season are documented for 325 bird species known to occur in the Pilbara, Western Australia, since the first records were made in 1699. The fauna is a mixture of Torresian, Eyrean and Bassian components, along with a variety of seabirds, migratory wading birds and Asian vagrants. The region lies entirely within the arid zone and the overall harshness of the environment means that few species are resident. The richness of the total avifauna (resident and non-resident) is due mainly to the diversity of habitats, especially those on or near the coast. The region is an important refugial destination for a variety of Australian species and includes a range of endemic subspecies and colour morphs. The area from Eighty Mile Beach to Port Hedland saltworks is of international importance for shorebirds and, following cyclonic rains, Mandora Marsh and Fortescue Marsh are of continental importance for waterbirds. The 204 breeding species are mapped, and each species is assessed for possible changes in distribution or abundance since 1900. Keywords – Pilbara birds, ecological status, relative abundance, breeding, movements, taxonomy INTRODUCTION Cormorants, Gulls, Crab-catchers, &c a few small Land Birds, and a sort of white Parrots, which The Pilbara region of Western Australia (WA), flew a great many together’ (p.
