Despite appearances I'm sure this is not a jewel beetle, sorry. A more notable beetle person should be able to help...

ID from Kim Pullen. I can't find much on the internet, except this link: https://bie.ala.org.au/species/urn:lsid:biodiversity.org.au:afd.taxon:3e31a63e-83dd-4f7e-b34d-ec3d126047b6#gallery
One of the photos does indeed look the same.
