The rock art of Murujuga

In the arvo, we went to the Burrup Peninsula. Loads of ancient rock art plus a very large gas processing facility for the North West shelf project.
We didn't get very far - just the first walk, Deep Gorge.
We were told this is the largest collection of rock art in the world in one place. 
There were around a half million art works, before industry moved in.

The massive gas plant infra has 4 odd smoking towers like electricity generation, and a large distillation looking tower. Are they also processing oil? Apparently the North West shelf facilities further north wiped out around 20% of it.

At the Salvos the following day, there was hi vis vests and overalls galore. We got a couple of books and warmer tops as it keeps being much colder than you'd expect around here.
