    To each ``natural'' star-product (in the sense of Gutt and Rawnsley), on a Poisson manifold \(M\), the author associates a Poisson morphism, which can be thought as a ``formal symplectic groupoid'', at least if \(M\) is a symplectic manifold. This morphism is called the dequantization of the natural star product. Between the classical and quantum worlds, there is world of semiclassical objects, which inherit certain properties of quantum structures. This paper contributes to the study of such semiclassical objects. More precisely, the author introduces a way to ``dequantize'' Fedosov's quantization. To each natural star-product, he associates a formal geometric object, the formal neighborhood of the zero section of the cotangent bundle \(T*M\) endowed with the ``source'' and ``target'' mappings to \(M\). Finally the source and the target mappings are calculated explicitly, and also described independently in terms of geometric structure of Fedosov's quantization.
