EuMg2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. Mg(1) is bonded to six equivalent Mg(1) and six equivalent Eu(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing MgEu6Mg6 cuboctahedra. Eu(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Mg(1) and four equivalent Eu(1) atoms.
