The structure described by Ho2Ge3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Ho(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ge(1), three equivalent Ge(2), and three equivalent Ge(3) atoms. There are three inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho(1) and three equivalent Ge(3) atoms. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho(1) atoms. In the third Ge site, Ge(3) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho(1) and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
