Salzburg, Austria
Salzburg, Österreich
NOTE:
Salzburg is traditionally separated into 5 larger regions: Lungau, Pinzgau, Pongau, Tennengau and Flachgau.
Only Flachgau and Lungau are used in Mindat as hierarchical sub-levels for Salzburg localities - Flachgau, because the area is composed of sedimentary rocks bearing similar mineralizations, and Lungau, because the area is perfectly defined by geographic boundaries: high mountain ranges to the north and west and the Carinthian and Styrian borders - again represented by high mountain ranges - to the south and east, respectively. Lungau and Pinzgau may be encountered on specimen labels; the latter mostly refers to localities in the Hohe Tauern Mts.
The remaining Salzburg localities are arranged by geographic points of view, i.e. they are mostly assigned to valleys, mountain ranges, or towns etc., but NOT to one of the remaining regions (Pongau, Tennengau, Pinzgau) because this would have severe implications for the Pinzgau/Pongau and Pongau/Flachgau boundaries in that important geologic formations and historical mining districts (Mitterberg, Werfen, Tennen Mts) would have to be split up.
NOTE:
Mineral collecting in the Central Eastern Alps ("Nationalpark Hohe Tauern", covering areas within Salzburg, Tyrol and Carinthia) is restricted by law since 2003: collection is generally forbidden in a central zone (except for scientific studies), and allowed under certain conditions within a border zone. The limits of these zones are given here: http://www.fg-traunstein.de/downloads/npht_zonierung.pdf [Link Broken?
