ABORIGINAL HERITAGE

PROTECTION POLICY

Purpose of The Policy;

Prospector Park Gold Safaris (PPGS) have created this policy to ensure all members:

  • comply with the State and Commonwealth laws relating to Aboriginal heritage sites

  • understand and be aware of the laws regarding the protection of Aboriginal cultural sites, and 

  • understand the processes and procedures that PPGS have put in place for ensuring heritage protection on PPGS pending leases or others.

The Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (AHA)

The AHA is a law in the state of Western Australia governing the protection of Aboriginal cultural sites. The law protects all Aboriginal heritage sites in Western Australia, whether or not they are registered with the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage. The AHA also provides protection for Aboriginal objects.

The places that the AHA applies to, include:

  • any place of importance and significance where persons of Aboriginal descent have, or appear to have left any object, natural or artificial, used for or made or adapted for use for, any purpose connected with the traditional cultural life of the Aboriginal people, past or present

  • any sacred, ritual or ceremonial site, which is of importance and special significance to persons of Aboriginal descent.

  • any places that are or were associated with the Aboriginal people and which is of historical, anthropological, archaeological  or ethnographical interest.

When Clients Are On PPGS Leases;

To ensure compliance with the AHA when on PPGS leases, any member who comes across any Aboriginal sites that may be places to which the AHA applies, will:

  • not camp on or detect in or around such sites

  • not dig or disturb the ground around such sites

  • not touch or remove any artifacts from such sites, and

  • report any Aboriginal sites found, to the secretary via email, prospectorpark@outlook.com The report should include coordinates and pictures (if taken) so management can create a register of sites for all PPPS pending leases or others

If you have any questions relating to this Aboriginal Heritage Protection Policy please email us.
