Roxbyite is triclinic, space group P1, with unit-cell dimensions a 13.4051(9), b 13.4090(8), c 15.4852(3) Å, a 90.022(2), b 90.021(2), g 90.020(3)°. The crystal structure was solved using 12190 independent intensity data with I > 4sigma(I), out of some 43652 unique reflections measured with a single-crystal diffractometer. There are 58 different Cu atoms and 32 different S atoms in the structure. the crystal used is twelve-fold rotationally twinned about a, 12 twin-volume parameters were invoked.
