Località "Cornorotto", torrende Chiavon Nero, Fara Vicentino, Vicenza, Veneto, Italia
Outcrop of Oligocene basaltic rocks along the course of Chiavon Nero creek, ca. 1 km downstream of the bridge on the road connecting Fara Vicentino to San Giorgio di Perlena.
The most interesting mineral in the rock cavities is garronite-Ca, forming groups of white polytwinned crystals up to 3-4 mm in length, often in epitaxial growth on phillipsite-Ca. Gonnardite forms white globules, with an internal radiate-fibrous texture, or millimetric sheaf-like crystal aggregates.
