The material structure described by Nd(Mg10Ni)2 crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. There are three inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(2), three equivalent Mg(3), five equivalent Mg(1), one Nd(1), and one Ni(1) atom. In the second Mg site, Mg(2) is bonded in a 14-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Mg(1) and two equivalent Nd(1) atoms. In the third Mg site, Mg(3) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to six equivalent Mg(1) and two equivalent Ni(1) atoms. Nd(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mg(2) and twelve equivalent Mg(1) atoms. Ni(1) is bonded to six equivalent Mg(1) and six equivalent Mg(3) atoms to form corner-sharing NiMg12 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
