In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CaO6 octahedra that share corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra, corners with four GaO4 tetrahedra, and edges with three CaO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.31–2.55 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CaO6 octahedra that share corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra, corners with four GaO4 tetrahedra, and edges with three CaO6 octahedra.
