Abstract

Using electron-diffraction techniques, kassite from an unusual rock from Josephine Creek, Oregon, was observed to have a b- centred orthorhombic unit cell with dimensions a 0.908, b 0.478, c 5.23 nm. This cell is closely related to that given in the original description of kassite rather than the cell given in a more recent article [A.M. 71-1045]. A crystal structure for kassite based on that of CaSb (sub 2) O (sub 6) is proposed.
