MT BARNETT STATION

Eastern Guruma Pastoral Company has partnered with Kupungarri Aboriginal Corporation to manage Mt Barnett Station which is situated next to Gibb River Station along the Gibb River Road. These two stations will be managed together in 2016 forming the West Kimberley Operations under Eastern Guruma’s Pastoral Strategy.

A workforce from the Kupungarri Community will be created to carry our fencing and infrastructure repairs at Mt Barnett. These new fences will support a full muster of the property and the purchase of new cattle to build a larger breeder herd. The management and ongoing operations on Mt Barnett Station will create jobs for a number of Aboriginal people in the area who have had little employment prospects available to them previously.
