The structure described by Mg5Dy5Al12(Fe2Si3)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. There are two inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Fe(1), two equivalent Al(2), four equivalent Al(1), and four equivalent Si(1) atoms. In the second Mg site, Mg(2) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Al(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Dy sites. In the first Dy site, Dy(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Al(1), four equivalent Al(2), and one Si(2) atom. In the second Dy site, Dy(2) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Si(1) atoms. Fe(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(1), four equivalent Al(1), one Si(2), and two equivalent Si(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(1), two equivalent Dy(1), two equivalent Fe(1), one Al(2), two equivalent Al(1), one Si(1), and two equivalent Si(2) atoms. In the second Al site, Al(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one Mg(2), two equivalent Mg(1), four equivalent Dy(1), and two equivalent Al(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mg(1), two equivalent Dy(2), two equivalent Fe(1), and two equivalent Al(1) atoms. In the second Si site, Si(2) is bonded to two equivalent Dy(1), two equivalent Fe(1), and eight equivalent Al(1) atoms to form face-sharing SiDy2Al8Fe2 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
