The structure described by Ho6MnTe2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. There are two inequivalent Ho sites. In the first Ho site, Ho(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Mn(1) and four equivalent Te(1) atoms. In the second Ho site, Ho(2) is bonded to two equivalent Mn(1) and two equivalent Te(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing HoMn2Te2 tetrahedra. Mn(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ho(1) and six equivalent Ho(2) atoms. Te(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ho(2) and six equivalent Ho(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
