Major attraction for day visitors to Murujuga
It would be the Central Hub for all activities and attractions, offering a range of options to locals and visitors alike, from providing Visitor Information, cultural tours (land and sea), conference and event facilities, café, art gallery and exhibitions, amphitheatre for cultural yarns and events, retail outlets and much, much more
It will provide Access to learn about this special place and its people through Meaningful Interactions with the people that know it best!
Improved road and guided track access to the Northern Burrup which will allow the Traditional Owners to protect, manage and monitor this area more effectively

12. CAMPING with CUSTODIANS PHASE 2
Nestled in the sand dunes among the spinifex would be an
Eco Accommodation Camp
Deluxe eco tents
Self provision Camping facilities
Our local aboriginal hosts will share with you their dreamtime stories, teach their crafts and prepare bush tucker on the beach campfire
Both foundation initiatives of the MLKC and CWC are complimentary to each others commercial viability

13. THE TRANSFORMATIONAL PROJECTS OTHER IMPORTANT FEATURES
THE JETTY
A Recreational Jetty at Conzinc Bay would provide the following:
Would allow tourists and locals to arrive by BOAT
The Murujuga Rangers would be provided with a more accessible launch point for guided tours for visitors and guests to explore one of the 42 Islands of Dampier Archipelago
Due to the expansion upgrade plans already underway at Dampier marina, this would create the potential to attract cruise ships to the harbour, inturn creating a new market for tourism products to be delivered from Conzinc Bay

14. ICONIC ENTRANCE & SIGNAGE
THE ENTRANCE Creating an iconic entry statement that reflects the significance of Murujuga would create a sense of excitement and true appreciation upon entering the National Park
THE SIGNAGE
Carrying that signage through the park to highlight, inform and direct visitors will provide a sense of direction and accountability for this culturally sensitive and important area while they are visiting.

17. THE JOURNEY AND HOW YOU CAN HELP?
The MLKC has been a dream of the 5 language groups of MURUJUGA for many years now
MAC is currently undertaking its feasibility and business case for Phase 1 and 2 at CONZINC BAY, with the help of Pilbara Development Commission
MAC has the commitment and support from government and industry stakeholders [City of Karratha, Woodside, Pilbara Development Commission etc.] as this TRANSFORMATIONAL PROJECT strongly aligns itself with the objectives and priorities of the Pilbara Regional Investment Blueprint.
MAC is seeking the necessary CULTURAL GUIDANCE and clearance as this project evolves
We ask that you all get behind MAC, to ensure OUR VISION and OBJECTIVES become a REALITY, not only for the TRADITIONAL OWNERS of this Country but for the wider COMMUNITY of the NEW PILBARA
