The Materials Project

Mg is Magnesium structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded to twelve equivalent Mg atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing MgMg12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.18 Å) and six longer (3.20 Å) Mg–Mg bond lengths.
