This locality is one of the ~40 “genetically” sub-localities (*) (revealed and/or summarized in Cuchet and al. (2022)) of the giant alpine rare-earth mineralization - with its topographical extension of ~ 20x45 km, in Switzerland and Italy - situated into one precise level of gneiss of the Monte Leone nappe.
In this locality, the REE-mineralisation can be encountered in place in the cliffs situated north west of point 2624 m.
Fallen mineralized boulders have been found in the little combe downwards.
