We have a terrific new Dja Dja Wurrung name for the land at Moonambel! DERNGATUK GARINGILANG.

We are very proud to announce that we have collaborated with the Djaara nation and discussed with them about a Dja Dja Wurrung language name for the hill and land encompassing the project in the vicinity of Moonambel. They have bestowed the name Derngatuk Garingilang for our hill and project which translates as “new growth” which seems wonderfully appropriate. We understand the importance of recognising, valuing language and culture in the journey of Indigenous self determination. We feel honoured to have gone through a formal process with the Djaara in requesting a name from them. Thank you so much to the Djaara Peoples.

  1. Just another edit – you need to capitalise Dja and separate the second Dja from Wurrung
