I wonder if the unrest in the mining sector is because these groups are wanting to go" solo " .

They want new and modern equipment and looking at Sanz for help.

Obviously Sanz is looking at the bigger picture and knows that these small operation are a waist of time in the general context.

I believe that this is a problem in need of solving before the permit .

These miners will not go to work for a wage ,they worked for themselves all their life and they are not going to change.
