: Je pense que si l'on traduit par exploité ou utilisé, on ne peut pas utiliser ressource car ça devient ambigu....

: L'ambiguïté est immédiatement dissipée puisque la deuxième phrase explique en quoi ces touristes pourraient être utiles.

à peine entamé/sous-développé
Generally, I would go with "un filon à peine entamé" but because of the context here, I might use something like "une ressource sous-développé"
