Candoglia, Mergozzo, Val d'Ossola, Provincia del Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, Piemonte, Italia
In the mountainous area between the villages of Candoglia and Albo, the middle portion of the Kinzigite Formation (Ivrea-Verbano Zone) is exposed. Here, a heterogeneous group of variable metasediments occurs. An apparent «stratigraphic» succession comprises quartz-feldspathic gneisses at the top, followed by a quartzite layer, marbles, metapelites, and marls. Below is a thick quartz-feldspathic and metapelitic layer followed by interlayered bands of amphibolite.
Rocks exposed along the road from Candoglia to Madre quarry (Cava Madre) comprise several layers of marble and quartzite, kinzigite gneiss, and pegmatites. The exploited marble layer forms a narrow band of relatively coarse-grained white to pink calcite-marble with dm-thick layers of calc-silicate and amphibolite. The latter show spectacular boudinage structures. Streaks of sulfides (mainly pyrite and chalcopyrite) are unwelcomed impurities. The Candoglia marble layer is possibly a folded isoclinal fold with its uphill termination at approx. 900 m altitude.
The most common kinzigite gneiss paragenesis includes quartz, plagioclase, biotite, sillimanite ± garnet ± K feldspar; common accessory minerals are apatite, zircon, graphite, Fe-Ti oxides, and titanite. Sillimanite can form prismatic crystals or bunches of fibres twisted together (fibrolite variety).
Since the 14th century, this marble has been exploited and used as the main building stone of the Cathedral (Duomo) of Milan. The marble quarries of Candoglia were firstly located near the village, but later on, their position moved up to higher levels. Currently, the main excavation activities are at Cava Madre, belonging to the "Veneranda Fabbrica del Duomo", and the produced stone (about 1000 t/year) is only used for the restoration of the Cathedral.
