Giacimento di manganese di Monte di Voragno, Voragno, Val d'Ala, Valli di Lanzo, Zona Sesia-Lanzo, Torino, Piemonte, Italia
Piemontite-rich quartz veins at the contact between calcschists and mica schists (Gennaro, 1925). According to Gennaro these veins cropped out in the little valley between Monte di Voragno village and Santa Cristina chapel, but to date, despite a thorough search, their location has yet to be found.
This locality is located in Ala Valley, but included in the municipality of Ceres.
