In order to rescue and protect the legacy of both geological and cultural history of Oruro and "generate added value" to the local economy through the design of geotourism routes involving existing museums in the area (Mineralogical; Mining; anthropological, and Rail) that collect geo-mining legacy, is that the creation of Oruro GEOPARK could become a new opportunity to "local development" is proposed.
