Le Cornillon
The peak culminates at 2475 meters and is situated North-West of Bourg d'Oisans.
de Bournon discovered the epidote at Bourg d'Oisans and where largely discribed by Romé de l'Isle. He called them " green schorl "
As Bourg d'Oisans is the type locality for epidote, it is possible that the original specimens came from this place.
Most of the pieces recovered came from near the top in a nearly inaccessible place. The vugs where sometimes more than a square meter in size.
