The material described by Ni4GaGe3 crystallizes in the trigonal R3 space group. There are two inequivalent Ni sites. In the first Ni site, Ni(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Ga(1) and six equivalent Ge(1) atoms. In the second Ni site, Ni(2) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ga(1) and five equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Ga(1) is bonded in a 13-coordinate geometry to one Ni(1), six equivalent Ni(2), and six equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ni(1), five equivalent Ni(2), and two equivalent Ga(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
