Gran Zebrù (Königspitze), Valfurva, Valtellina, Sondrio, Lombardia, Italia
Minerals (calcite, dolomite, fluorite, and pyrite) in dolostone, cropping out at the base of Gran Zebrù. Fissures with albite and dolomite crystals are present in dolostone at the contact with intrusive rocks and schists. Albite with calcite and quartz occurs in blackish limestone. Fissures with adualaria, quartz, and albite occur in orthogneiss.
In intrusive rocks (quartz-diorite), occurring between the Zebrù and Cedec valleys, zeolites have been found.
