The Yawuru Native Title Holders Aboriginal Corporation has rejected a push by the listed Buru Energy for access to traditional lands in order to carry out hydraulic fracturing. However the company already has the necessary exploration permits, while there is no right for the Yawuru people to force talks under the Native Title Act. Buru has signalled it wants to co-operate with the traditional owners on the shale gas exploration, and has stressed the positive effect on job creation and affordable gas supplies in Western Australia. Buru is setting the pace among groups trying to tap the Canning Basin unconventional gas region
