KEY POINTS:
PERTH - The bodies of two men missing for up to two weeks have been found in a remote desert area in Western Australia.
The Aboriginal men, one aged in his 40s and the other in his 60s, were found about 320 kilometres east of Kalgoorlie.
WA Police said the men were reported missing four days ago after failing to arrive at their destination.
But Kalgoorlie police Constable Taryn Hoffman said the men were believed missing for longer.
"They were believed missing for a total of two weeks - they're supposedly 10 days late to where they were due to go," she said.
One of the men was found near his four-wheel drive vehicle late Friday afternoon.
The other man was found 3.5km south of the vehicle during a search of the area yesterday morning.
"It looks like they've come across some mechanical failure," Const Hoffman said.
Const Hoffman said police were still examining the scene and inquiries into the deaths were continuing.
She said the bodies were likely to be flown to Perth for autopsies.
