An Indigenous group that previously succeeded in blocking development of a gold mine has failed in a bid to declare Bathurst’s McPhillamy Park a sacred site.

On Sept. 25, 2025, Bathurst Regional Council announced that the Wiradyuri Traditional Owners Central West Aboriginal Corporation had placed an emergency application under section 9 of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Heritage Protection (ATSIHP) Act in order to seek protection for the area on Mount Panorama at McPhillamy Park.
