What is water that contains a high concentration of dissolved minerals said to be?

Answer 1

#"Salty?"#

What kind of dissolved ions are present in high concentrations in seawater?

Of course, the concentrations of salts in bottled mineral waters are much, much lower than that in sea water. You can drink a lot of bottled mineral waters, and I find the ones that taste the saltiest to be the nicest. French sparkling mineral water Badoit tastes pretty salty; German mineral water Gerolsteiner is even saltier and nicer to drink.
