There are two inequivalent Sb sites. In the first Sb site, Sb(1) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one S(1), one S(2), and one S(4) atom. In the second Sb site, Sb(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent S(3) atoms. There are four inequivalent S sites.
