Reclaimed basalt quarry on Monte Gloso (also known as Monte di Gloso), to the west of the Church of Saints Agatha and Apollonia.

Quarrying operations exposed a breccia horizon made of large basalt fragments rich in small cavities lined with crystallised zeolites (analcime, gmelinite-Ca, gonnardite, natrolite, and phillipsite-Ca).
