Cima Vazzeda, Val Sissone, Chiesa in Valmalenco, Valmalenco (Val Malenco), Valtellina, Sondrio, Lombardia, Italia
The names Cima di Vazzeda & Alpe Vazzeda are univocally linked to the occurrence of spinel crystals into marbles. Nevertheless, the overall geological setting in the area is so complex that several different parageneses exist: pegmatites, various types of Ca-Al Silicate bearing contact metamorphites, zeolite bearing fissures...
The provided coordinates refer to the ESE side of Cima di Vazzeda, where lots of marble boulders have fallen. The whole mountain can be considered prospective for various types of minerals.
