The crystal structure described by NiS2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. Ni(1) is bonded to six equivalent S(1) atoms to form NiS6 octahedra that share corners with eight equivalent Ni(1)S6 octahedra, corners with six equivalent S(1)Ni3S tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent Ni(1)S6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 62-63°. S(1) is bonded to three equivalent Ni(1) and one S(1) atom to form distorted SNi3S tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Ni(1)S6 octahedra, corners with thirteen equivalent S(1)Ni3S tetrahedra, and  an edgeedge with one S(1)Ni3S tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 66-77°. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
