In the first Co+3.12+ site, Co+3.12+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form CoO5 square pyramids that share corners with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent CoO5 square pyramids, and faces with four BaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 17°. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 1.81–2.04 Å. In the second Co+3.12+ site, Co+3.12+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent CoO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent CoO5 square pyramids, and faces with four BaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–8°. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.21 Å. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+, two Nd3+, and two equivalent Co+3.12+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+, one Ca2+, one Nd3+, and two equivalent Co+3.12+ atoms.

In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two Nd3+, and two Co+3.12+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ba2+ and two equivalent Co+3.12+ atoms to form distorted OBa4Co2 octahedra that share corners with eight OBa2CaNdCo2 octahedra and edges with four OBa4Co2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–61°. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+, two Nd3+, and two equivalent Co+3.12+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded to two Ba2+, one Ca2+, one Nd3+, and two equivalent Co+3.12+ atoms to form distorted OBa2CaNdCo2 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent OBa4Co2 octahedra, an edgeedge with one OBa2CaNdCo2 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent OBa4Co2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 60–61°. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Ca2+, three Nd3+, and two equivalent Co+3.12+ atoms. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ba2+ and two equivalent Co+3.12+ atoms to form distorted OBa4Co2 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent OBa4Co2 octahedra, edges with four OBa4Co2 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent OBa2CaNdCo2 octahedra.
