Cu3(GeO3)4 crystallizes in the cubic Im-3 space group. Cu(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form corner-sharing GeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 40°. O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Cu(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms.
