There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.95–3.08 Å. Ca2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CaO6 octahedra that share corners with six SiO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one AlO4 tetrahedra, and edges with two BeO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.31–2.49 Å. There are two inequivalent Be2+ sites.
