MgZr3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. Mg(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Zr(1) atoms to form MgZr12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Mg(1)Zr12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent Zr(1)Mg4Zr8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Mg(1)Zr12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Zr(1)Mg4Zr8 cuboctahedra. Zr(1) is bonded to four equivalent Mg(1) and eight equivalent Zr(1) atoms to form ZrMg4Zr8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Zr(1)Mg4Zr8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent Mg(1)Zr12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent Zr(1)Mg4Zr8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Mg(1)Zr12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent Zr(1)Mg4Zr8 cuboctahedra.
