Our Land
Tjiwarl means to shine in our language and is the name of a soak near the Barr Smith ranges.
The Tjiwarl native title claim was determined by Justice Debra Mortimer on 27 April 2017 at a ceremonial sitting of the Federal Court of Australia at Jones’ Creek, north of the town of Leinster.
The claim was first filed on 17th June 2011 and covers approximately 13,623.41 square kilometres of land and waters located partly within the Shires of Wiluna, Leonora and Sandstone and encompasses the mining town of Leinster.
The law, the Tjukurrpa, is what brings everyone together. The traditional western desert Law and culture means Tjiwarl people have many obligations, from attending funerals and sorry business, Skin systems, looking after country, holding ceremonies and most importantly, protecting what is sacred to us.
