In the ninth O site, O is bonded to six Mg atoms to form OMg6 octahedra that share corners with six OCaMg4Si octahedra and edges with twelve OCaMg5 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. In the tenth O site, O is bonded to six Mg atoms to form OMg6 octahedra that share corners with six OCaMg4Si octahedra and edges with twelve OCaMg5 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. There are two shorter (2.11 Å) and two longer (2.16 Å) O–Mg bond lengths. In the eleventh O site, O is bonded to six Mg atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OMg6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. In the twelfth O site, O is bonded to one Ca and five Mg atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OCaMg5 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–3°. There are two shorter (2.16 Å) and two longer (2.18 Å) O–Mg bond lengths.
