The Uchucchacua Mine, Oyon Province, Peru is well-known for producing Alabandite in large
octahedral crystals, as well as crystal clusters of
cubic-octahedral combinations. Sharp octahedral crystals, often as
floaters, have recently been discovered in the Merelani Hills, Arusha, Tanzania. In Australia, an interesting
arborescent form of Alabandite was found in a one-time occurrence at Broken Hill, New South Wales, Australia.
Small microcrystals of Alabandite have come from the Garpenberg Norra Mine, Hedemora, Dalarna, Sweden; and Alabandite with contrasting
Rhodochrosite from Sacarîmb, Hunedoara Co., Romania.
Massive Alabandite often associated with
Rhodochrosite comes from Onavas, Sonora, Mexico.
