The compound described by HoTc2 is Hexagonal Laves structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Ho(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Tc(1) and nine equivalent Tc(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Tc sites. In the first Tc site, Tc(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ho(1) and six equivalent Tc(2) atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing TcHo6Tc6 cuboctahedra. In the second Tc site, Tc(2) is bonded to six equivalent Ho(1), two equivalent Tc(1), and four equivalent Tc(2) atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing TcHo6Tc6 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
