BaLa3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. Ba(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent La(1) atoms to form BaLa12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Ba(1)La12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent La(1)Ba4La8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Ba(1)La12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent La(1)Ba4La8 cuboctahedra. La(1) is bonded to four equivalent Ba(1) and eight equivalent La(1) atoms to form LaBa4La8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent La(1)Ba4La8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent Ba(1)La12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent La(1)Ba4La8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Ba(1)La12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent La(1)Ba4La8 cuboctahedra.
