Name(s) in local language(s):
Pianche, Vinadio, Valle Stura, Cuneo, Piemonte, Italia
Mineralized clefts in biotite-rich granite gneisses of the SW slope of Punta Ventabren (Gesso-Stura-Vésubie Terrane, Argentera crystalline massif).
Note: in some mineral collections, specimens of gramaccioliite from the type locality (and associated minerals such as anatase, synchysite-(Ce), quartz, etc) are improperly labelled as from Pianche. The correct name of the gramaccioliite locality is Sambuco gramaccioliite site (Sambuco “historical” site), Sambuco, Cuneo Province, Piedmont, Italy
