The Mossbauer measurements at variable temperature (from liquid helium
to room temperature) on the layered compound CuFeTe2 have been able t
o determine the existence of a magnetically ordered state below T-N =
254 +/- 15 K. The general shape of the spectra and the magnitudes of t
he hyperfine fields let us to propose a Spin Density Wave (SDW) behavi
or for this compound.
