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 72 atoms drawn above are these sites multiplied by all 8 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

AB2C5D_oP72_60_d_2cd_5d_2c-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol oP72, then the space-group number 60, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (Na: 4c; Na: 4c; Sb: 4c; Sb: 4c; Fe: 8d; Na: 8d; O: 8d; O: 8d; O: 8d; O: 8d; O: 8d). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
