The phase diagram of the ternary reciprocal system Tl₂S+SnTe↔Tl₂Te+SnS was investigated using differential-thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction and microstructure analysis. The liquidus surface projection, the isothermal section at 520 K and phase diagrams of four vertical sections were constructed. The liquidus consists of seven primary crystallization fields. The extent of the continuous solid solution range based on the ternary phase Tl₄SnTe₃ was estimated.
