Nevertheless, uncountable problems including mining operating illegally according to DNPM and environmental agency laws, artisanal mining, lack of articulation between productive and traditional craft industry and tourism sectors, problems with land properties titles and so on are the main obstacles to the plain development of soapstone industry in the region.
