It is predicted on the basis of a symmetry analysis of magnetic structures in the exchange approximation that a system of ions of a three-dimensional, three-sublattice magnetic material, which are equivalent in the paramagnetic phase, may acquire an order in which the magnetization of one of the sublattices is zero. The conclusion that there is the possibility of a latent paramagnetism in the exchange approximation remains in force for a greater number of sublattices.
