In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form CaO5 trigonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one CaO6 octahedra, corners with two GdO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent GdO5 trigonal bipyramids, and an edgeedge with one GdO5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 65–68°. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.51 Å.
