Any help with identifying this timber, it's heavy, very heavy and hard, very hard, it's a desert timber of sorts, I know that much. First thoughts possibly Mulga?

Looks like some mulga I have.
In my opinion its mulga (Acacia aneura) from wood appearance and especially the bark.
I've just come across a large amount of it, just wanted to be sure what it was I was buying.
Thank you

I tried to send you a PM this morning, but it said your inbox was full.

The yellow sapwood is another characteristic of Mulga.

I made this box about a year ago now from a piece of Mulga. The tree had fallen across a track that runs along the eastern side of the Mt Manning range here in West Australia. I had a little ozito battery chainsaw with me so I decided to cut it off the track. It wasn't until I'd done the first cut that the beauty of the timber was revealed that I decided to bring some of it home.
