Ungani Heritage Incident Investigation Concluded

Buru has been advised by the Department of Aboriginal Affairs (DAA) that it has concluded its investigation into the alleged heritage disturbance in the area of the Ungani 3D seismic survey as reported by KRED Enterprises in October 2012.
The DAA has determined that Buru and its contractors did not breach the Aboriginal Heritage Act and that there was no evidence presented of any disturbance to an Aboriginal heritage site.
The Company has been actively undertaking field activities in the Canning Basin for five years on lands subject to native title claims and determinations. All of Buru's
operations are conducted following extensive consultation and heritage surveys with Traditional Owners to ensure that sites or areas of significance are not disturbed. Active monitoring programs by the Traditional Owners representatives also occur during field operations.
Buru is committed to working cooperatively with the Traditional Owners and takes particular care to ensure that its activities do not disturb registered sites or areas of cultural significance. Included in this program is comprehensive cultural induction awareness training for all staff and contractors.
The Ungani 3D seismic survey was voluntarily suspended by the Joint Venture in October last year following the alleged incident and recommenced in July 2013. The survey is expected to be completed in the coming weeks.
