The material structure described by MgZnCo is Hexagonal Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. Mg(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mg(1), six equivalent Co(1), and six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. Co(1) is bonded to six equivalent Mg(1), two equivalent Co(1), and four equivalent Zn(1) atoms to form CoMg6Zn4Co2 cuboctahedra that share corners with eight equivalent Zn(1)Mg6Zn2Co4 cuboctahedra, corners with ten equivalent Co(1)Mg6Zn4Co2 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent Co(1)Mg6Zn4Co2 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Co(1)Mg6Zn4Co2 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Zn(1)Mg6Zn2Co4 cuboctahedra. Zn(1) is bonded to six equivalent Mg(1), four equivalent Co(1), and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms to form ZnMg6Zn2Co4 cuboctahedra that share corners with eight equivalent Co(1)Mg6Zn4Co2 cuboctahedra, corners with ten equivalent Zn(1)Mg6Zn2Co4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent Zn(1)Mg6Zn2Co4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Zn(1)Mg6Zn2Co4 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Co(1)Mg6Zn4Co2 cuboctahedra. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
