GGen ran 1,000 trials across 100 B-Co-Fe-Sn stoichiometries in 21.8 min, keeping 951 relaxed structures. 27 of them landed within 150 meV/atom of the convex hull, 27 of which the database had not seen before. The leading generated candidate is Co5Fe10Sn in Pm (#6), which sits 44 meV/atom above the hull (new composition).

The shared GGen database carries the published structures for this system, so a generated phase whose formula is absent from them is a new composition, and one whose space group is absent is a new polymorph. Hull counts cover compounds only.
