HgBiO3 is Hydrophilite-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. Hg(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O(1) atoms. Bi(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form corner-sharing BiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 38°. O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Hg(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
