The crystal structure described by LuNi4Au is Hexagonal Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Lu(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Ni(1) and four equivalent Au(1) atoms. Ni(1) is bonded to three equivalent Lu(1), six equivalent Ni(1), and three equivalent Au(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing NiLu3Ni6Au3 cuboctahedra. Au(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Lu(1) and twelve equivalent Ni(1) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
