Salzburgite has a general empirical formula of Pb2Cu2Bi7S12 and an orthorhombic crystal structure.Ralph, Joylon, and Ida Chau. Salzburgite. Joylon Ralph, 1993-2010. Web. 14 September 2010. This mineral is very similar to paarite in that they both have nearly the same empirical formulas.Topa, Dan, and Emil Mackovicky. "Mineralogical Data on Salzburgite..." Editorial. Canadian Mineralogist June 2005: 909-17. GeoScience World. 2010. 14 September 2010. They are both of the bismuthinite - aikinite series. Salzburgite was named after the region in which it was found, Salzburg, Austria.
