Synopsis:
The crystal structure of the Sb-rich variety of the mineral gustavite, AgPb(Bi2Sb)3S6, a naturally occuring monoclinic lillianite homologue with N = 4, has been solved and refined for the first time by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure consists of blocks of diagonal chains of four octahedra, viz. M1a (Bi), M2a (Sb/Bi), M2b (Bi/Sb) and M1b (Ag), separated by Pb atoms in a trigonal prismatic coordination.
