The material structure described by Dy5(CoB3)2 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. There are three inequivalent Dy sites. In the first Dy site, Dy(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Co(1) atoms. In the second Dy site, Dy(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent B(1) atoms. In the third Dy site, Dy(3) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent B(1) atoms. Co(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Dy(1) and six equivalent B(1) atoms. B(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Dy(2), two equivalent Dy(3), two equivalent Co(1), and three equivalent B(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
