Sorry, I will try to present the problem in more detial.
So i am trying to mesh a material region. The material is usually a crystal
with atoms located as per the lattice defining the crystal. See for example
the attached image which has silicon atoms (spheres) in the crystal unit
cell which is a cuboid.

Now if i have a cuboid region with 10 unit cells each in x, y and z
direction. I need to mesh this region such that I have mesh nodes at atom
locations. The can be more mesh nodes than the atom locations.
