Abstract
A refined set of atomic coordinates and temperature parameters have been obtained for stibnite, Sb2S3. This structure contains parallel (Sb4S6)n chains, which are linked to form crumpled sheets (two per unit cell). The quinvalent Sb has fivefold coordination in a square pyramid, where the Sb is slightly displaced out of the base center. The trivalent Sb has threefold coordination in a trigonal pyramid, where the Sb occupies the vertex. Two trivalent S have threefold coordination in a trigonal pyramid, where the S occupies the vertex. The other divalent S has twofold coordination. The physical properties are related to the crystal structure.
