There will be no more industrial development on the World Heritage-nominated Murujuga site, also known as the Burrup Peninsula, beyond a $6.4 billion fertiliser plant that starts construction today.
Murujuga, 1,500 kilometres north of Perth, is home to more than one million rock art petroglyphs, which are thousands of years old and cover a 37,000-hectare area, but also large gas and ammonia facilities.
