Abandoned quarry of grey-green leucogranitic orthogneiss, commercially known as "Pietra di Luserna". Here, as in the neighbouring quarries of the Barmassa area (e.g., Barmass Basso Quarry), gneiss shows a particular laminated texture and it was sold under the name of "Bianchetta" or "Zebrato" gneiss.
