The crystal structure described by W9Zn2O13 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. There are five inequivalent W sites. In the first W site, W(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(7) atoms. In the second W site, W(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one O(4), two equivalent O(1), and two equivalent O(3) atoms.

In the seventh O site, O(7) is bonded to one W(5), two equivalent W(1), and two equivalent W(3) atoms to form distorted OW5 square pyramids that share corners with four equivalent O(7)W5 square pyramids,  a cornercorner with one O(2)Zn2W2 tetrahedra, corners with six equivalent O(6)ZnW4 trigonal bipyramids, and edges with two equivalent O(7)W5 square pyramids. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
