Erratics in the stream bed of Fiumara Catona near the town of San Roberto.

At Contrada Cartegì, pyrrhotite and sphalerite, with subordinate chalcopyrite, galena and fluorite, are known from a hydrothermal vein in an aplite dyke embedded in gneiss, which was prospected in 1951.

Other minor mineralisations (consisting of pyrrhotite and sphalerite with traces of pyrite, galena, and chalcopyrite) are present in the municipal territory of San Roberto in gneiss rocks embedded in granite. Furthermore, small concentrations of magnetite are hosted in gneiss at the contact with granite or in the same granite.
