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 96 atoms drawn above are these sites multiplied by all 48 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
A5B3C16_cP96_222_ce_d_fi-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol cP96, then the space-group number 222, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (Ce: 8c; Mo: 12d; Ce: 12e; O: 16f; O: 48i). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
