Traditional owners have given evidence to a bush court in song and dance in a bid to stop a massive Northern Territory offshore gas project.
Tiwi Islander Dennis Tipakalippa is challenging the approval of Santos' environmental plans to drill in the Barossa gas field, about 150km north of his home of Pitjamirra on Melville Island.
The Munupi Elder, who is representing his clan, told the Federal Court hearing on Monday that he was not consulted over the plan for eight gas wells, and fears the project could damage his people's sea-Country.
