Abstract Martensitic and massive phases containing fine lamellae of two different close‐packed structures have been studied by transmission electron microscopy. The stacking sequences involved in the lamellar mixtures are ABCBCACAB and ABC, or AB and ABC, or ABC and CBA. The fine lamellae produce fringe patterns which are similar to fringe patterns due to single stacking faults. However, by tilting the foil images can be obtained that are incompatible with single stacking faults.
