of Laumontite VOLKER SCHRAMM and KARL F. FISCHER Lehrstuhl fuer Kristallographie, University of Saarbruecken, Germany A published crystal structure has been refined by least­ -squaresbased on about 8600 reflections measured with an automated three-circle single-crystal diffractometer. A dis­ tance least-squares computation (DLS) revealed the space group Am (No. 8) to be the most probable one. The pub­ lished structure was found to be essentially correct. The weighted R-factor for all reflections used is 9.4%. Further detailed work is in progress. A
