Crystal structure of metarossite, showing (a) the chains of alternating [V1O5] and [V2O5] trigonal bipyramids (yellow and green, respectively) along [010], and (b) the chains of edge-sharing distorted [CaO8] square antiprisms (magenta) along [100]. H atoms are represented by blue spheres; hydrogen bonding is indicated by dashed lines. |
