Founded in 1984, the Rirratjingu Aboriginal Corporation (RAC) represents the Rirratjingu people, the Indigenous Traditional Owners of Land on the Gove Peninsula. The RAC’s aim is to ensure the Rirratjingu community is financially self-sufficient and able to deliver benefits to our members and make a genuine difference in our community.

The RAC was established to administer mining royalties from the bauxite mine, build a pathway to a sustainable business and economic independence, and deliver social and cultural programs to advance the interests of the Rirratjingu people.
While the RAC’s origins lie with mining, the Corporation leadership has always been mindful of the fact that benefits from the mine are finite, and that participation in the economy through business and employment is vital. The RAC is dedicated to investing in the future through both social objective such as health, education and cultural programs as well as economic development.
