In the first Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with three MnO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent MgO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 55–66°. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.03–2.34 Å. In the second Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with three MnO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent MgO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 54–66°. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.33 Å. In the third Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with three MnO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent MgO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 56–67°. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.04–2.35 Å. There are five inequivalent Mn+2.80+ sites. In the first Mn+2.80+ site, Mn+2.80+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 55–67°.
