FMG admits destroying sacred sites at Solomon Hub

Fortescue Metals Group, has admitted to the destruction of Aboriginal sites at its Solomon Hub project in Western Australia's Pilbara.

In November 2011, Indigenous people said sites had been damaged but FMG dismissed the claims as offensive and untrue.

Now, the Yindjibarndi Aboriginal Corporation has documents, obtained under the Freedom of Information act, showing that two heritage sites were destroyed and a third was damaged by earth-moving equipment.
