Vuggy mafic enclaves contained in trachytic ("sancyite") matrix.
Enclaves have been collected in the streambed of the "Ravin des Chèvres" ravine, and come from the cliffs below Puy de Cliergue.
Locality first described by A. Lacroix (Minéralogie de la France) under the name Rivaux Grands, but Ravin des Chèvres is a more accurate name.
