In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CaO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent ReO6 octahedra and edges with two equivalent ReO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 69°. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.44 Å.

In the fourth Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.53 Å. In the fifth Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.25–2.55 Å. In the sixth Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.43–3.03 Å. In the seventh Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.39–2.61 Å. There are two inequivalent Re+6.50+ sites. In the first Re+6.50+ site, Re+6.50+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ReO6 octahedra that share edges with two CaO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Re–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–1.94 Å.

There are a spread of Re–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–2.05 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Ca2+ and one Re+6.50+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Ca2+ and one Re+6.50+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Ca2+ and one Re+6.50+ atom to form distorted corner-sharing OCa3Re trigonal pyramids. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Ca2+ and one Re+6.50+ atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OCa3Re tetrahedra.
