MgGa3 is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. Mg(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ga(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ga(2) atoms. In the second Ga site, Ga(2) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Mg(1) and four equivalent Ga(1) atoms.
