In this area there are many occurrences of andesitic and basaltic effusions (and trachytes too) which interested this part of Sardinia from Oligocene. In these altered rocks there are very interesting mineral occurrences. After Nurri village, following the road Orroli-Nurri, on the right side of the road there is a pathway that reaches, after about 100 m, erratic blocks of basalts.
