Welcome to Tiwi Resources


Tiwi Resources Pty Ltd was established in 1991 to assist Tiwi to gain economic opportunities for the Tiwi People from the use of their land.  This includes income generated from such activities as mining, carbon, fishing and forestry.  Proceeds are distributed by the Tiwi Resources Trust to help relieve poverty, advance education, and support cultural and ceremonial activities on the Tiwi Islands.

Tiwi Resources Pty Ltd is owned by the 8 Tiwi Land Owning Groups:  Malawu, Mantiyupwi, Munupi, Marrikawuyanga, Tikalaru, Wurankuwu, Wulirankuwu and Yimpinari.  Tiwi Resources works closely with the Tiwi Land Council to ensure that Tiwi people benefit from opportunities as they arise.
