The structure described by Mn3TeO6 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. Mn(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te(1) is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six equivalent O(2) atoms. In the second Te site, Te(2) is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Mn(1) and one Te(2) atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OMn3Te tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded to three equivalent Mn(1) and one Te(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OMn3Te trigonal pyramids. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
