Overview
Local extractive industry groups promote the development of natural resources to diversify the economy, create employment, and promote greater wealth distribution. The national Natural Resources Committee continues to explore efforts to commercially develop aragonite, limestone, salt, sand, forestry, sun, wind, and oil resources. U.S. firms have expressed interest in these sectors, particularly limestone mining and forestry.
Opportunities
Commercial activities to extract aragonite, limestone, salt, sand, forestry, sun, wind, and oil are all promising sub-sectors. Companies would be expected to develop plans and present them the government for consideration.
