We have HREM here, but this particular sample would not resist
to the electron beam. 

Anyway, I am not very confident in indexing by electron microscopy,
especially if the cell is of low symmetry with angles slightly
deviating from 90°. I know of many examples where HREM failed,
or proposed wrong cells, but powder diffraction succeeded.

May I send you a sample ?
