Salzburgite

Salzburgite has a general empirical formula of Pb2Cu2Bi7S12 and an orthorhombic crystal structure.[2] This mineral is very similar to paarite in that they both have nearly the same empirical formulas.[3] They are both of the bismuthinite - aikinite series. Salzburgite was named after the region in which it was found, SalzburgAustria.[2]
