512/315 is the sum of the tridecimal otonal sixth 13/8, and 4096/4095. Most Sagittal systems conflate both it and 13/8, via fudging in 13-limit JI, or tempering, leading to minismic temperaments. As is the case of minismic temperaments, tempering these two intervals together results in a lower-rank approximation of prime 13, with negligible error.

In Sagittal, it (and likely also 13/8) is (are) represented with as a pyth major sixth minus the 35 large diesis accidental. From C, the interval would be C - A.
