The multiplicity and the Wyckoff letter say how many copies of the site the group makes in one cell and on which kind of symmetry element the site sits; the 108 atoms drawn above are these sites multiplied by all 24 operations. Press Wyckoff under Colour to see the sites, and tick a symmetry element on the left to see which atoms lie on it.

How to read the label

A2B12CD12_cP108_205_c_2d_a_2d-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol cP108, then the space-group number 205, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (Mg: 4a; Br: 8c; H: 24d; H: 24d; O: 24d; O: 24d). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
