Monte Cervandone, Alpe Devero (Valle Devero), Baceno, Val d'Ossola, Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, Piemonte, Italia
Italian side of Cherbadung, Wallis (Valais), Switzerland (http://www.mindat.org/loc-3210.html).
In the rocks under the walls of the mountain often minerals are found coming from the Punta della Rossa etc. (see there).
So you can also take the minerals from the 'Ghiacciaio della Rossa' here. Although they should be cut off...
NOTE: In the original description of monazite-(Nd) the type locality is not correct: Monte Glogstafel; also if it not so far from Monte Giove, it was indicated to maintain obscure the occurrence locality.
