EuZnGe crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Eu(1) is bonded to six equivalent Zn(1) and six equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing EuZn6Ge6 cuboctahedra. Zn(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to six equivalent Eu(1) and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to six equivalent Eu(1) and three equivalent Zn(1) atoms.
