Owyheeite [Cu0.09 (1)Ag2.77 (4)Pb10.23 (4)Sb10.89 (5)S28.00 (5)] crystallizes as a twofold superstructure with P21/n symmetry and pseudo‐orthorhombic metrics [a = 8.1882 (3) Å, b = 27.2641 (7) Å, c = 22.8679 (7) Å, β = 90.293 (3)°, V = 5105.0 (3) Å3, Z = 4]. Owyheeite is systematically twinned by reflection at (021) or equivalently (021). Twinning is explained by describing a simplified Pmcn archetype structure as polytype built of two kinds of rods, which contact via electron‐pair micelles. A procedure of generating hypothetical polytypes by tiling space with partially overlapping equivalent regions is described. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
