The establishment and declaration of geoparks in the world has been successful due to the ability of environmental and social management that they possess. The notion of local development through the administration of these territories in Mexico has been driven for several years by research focused on the analysis of potential in natural heritage territories. The objective of this work was to determine the potential of Tlalpujahua-El Oro Mining District to be declared geopark. The indices of geological and geomorphological heritage, culture and education, economy and public services, protection and legislation and accessibility were obtained through a matrix assessment system. After determining the biotic, historical, and cultural value of the mine, it is concluded that favorable conditions were encountered in order to declare this territory as a geopark. Achieving this denomination would foster the social and economic growth of the region, with geopreservation as the guiding principle of the proposal. La creación y declaratoria de los geoparques en el mundo ha sido exitosa, debido a la capacidad de gestión ambiental y social que poseen. La noción de desarrollo local, a través de la administración de estos territorios en México, se impulsa con investigación enfocada al análisis de potencialidad de los territorios desde hace unos años. El objetivo de este trabajo fue conocer el potencial que posee el Distrito Minero Tlalpujahua-El Oro para aspirar a ser declarado geoparque. A través de un sistema de evaluación matricial se obtuvieron los índices de patrimonio geológico y geomorfológico, de cultura y educación, economía y servicios, protección y legislación, y de accesibilidad, para determinar el potencial geológico, geomorfológico, cultural y socioeconómico, además de la fundamentación teórica. Se encontraron condiciones favorables para poder conformar al distrito minero como un geoparque, al determinar el valor biótico, histórico y cultural de la mina Dos Estrellas. Lograr esta denominación impulsaría el crecimiento social y económico de la región, teniendo a la geoconservación como eje rector e integrador de la propuesta.
