Description

The Fortescue Metals Group digs up billions of dollars worth of iron ore in Australia each year, but aboriginals who have lived on the land for years say they are not getting their share. Negotiations between the two sides have broken down over the amount of royalties the Yindjibarndi aboriginal band should receive. Al Jazeera's Andrew Thomas reports from Pilbara, Australia.
