From Quincinetto take via Cialdini, then follow the road near the A1 motorway until the end. The collecting area is in the woods above the end of the road (commune of Donnas - to be checked).

The presence at Pont-Saint-Martin of dark red-brown prismatic crystals of rutile embedded in quartz is known for a long time. The first described specimens were collected in 1786 by Benedetto Costanzo Bonvicino (alias Benoît Constance Bonvoisin) in blocks adiacent to the houses of Pont-Saint-Martin (Bonvoisin, 1809).
