Dirupo Forcel Rosso, Monte Foppa (fianco nord), Massiccio dell'Adamello, Parco Naturale Adamello-Brenta, Val Camonica, Provincia di Brescia, Lombardia, Italia


Miarolitic gem-bearing LCT pegmatites in the southernmost gully of Vallone del Forcel Rosso between Punta di Forcel Rosso and the northern slope Monte Foppa (2752 m a.s.l.), disrupted in large blocks in an ancient landslide. The main system of miarolitic cavities has been found at an altitude of about 2220 m.

This find represents the first discovery of a gem-bearing LCT pegmatite in the Alps. Discovered by Mr Giancarlo Celio, a local collector, in November 1999. The pegmatite field is hosted in the thermo-metamorphic contact aureole between the Adamello pluton and the surrounding sediments. The pegmatites dykes are sub-horizontal and hosted in meta-sandstones enriched in accessory tourmaline. The larger veins are up to ca. 1.5 m in thickness, and some tens of meters long. Miarolitic cavities are not common, but they can be locally abundant, with a diameter achieving several decimetres in length, at the coarse-grained cores of the veins.

NOTE: This locality is within one of the protected zones of the park and collecting is only allowed for scientific purposes.
