We report a simple, economical and low temperature route for phase-pure synthesis of two distinct phases of Cu-Sb-S, chalcostibite (CuSbS2) and tetrahedrite (Cu12Sb4S13) nanostructures. Both compounds were prepared by the decomposition of a mixture of bis(O-ethylxanthato)copper(II) and tris(O-ethylxanthato)antimony(III), without the use
