Lizio is a commune nearby Le Roc Saint-André (where La Villeder mine is located), not a sublocality of La Villeder.
The "Lizio" locality should be quartz veins in the granite.
According to reference (1): "Recently [~ few years before 1970] blocks of quartz containing hübnerite have been discovered in the surroundings of Tromeur, near Lizio (F. Cesbron); the hübnerite appears in blades of 6 to 7 cm of length and 2 to 3 cm of width" (translation J. Malassé)
However, the right locality may be "Le Hangouët" in Lizio (see sublocality and réf.: Chauris, L. (2014): Minéraux de Bretagne, Les Editions du Piat, 167.)
Tromeur is situated just South-East of Le Hangouët but is part of Sérent district.
