NOT sulphuric mineral water!!

How dangerous is sulphuric acid?
This chemical is unique because it not only causes chemical burns, but also secondary thermal burns as a result of dehydration. This dangerous chemical is capable of corroding skin, paper, metals, and even stone in some cases. If sulfuric acid makes direct contact with the eyes, it can cause permanent blindness.22 Jul 2014

*sulfuric water
Peer comment(s):

neutral AllegroTrans : I think "sulphuric water(s)" implies the presence of sulphuric acid, a highly corrosive substance which I for one would not like to drink. By far the more correct term would be "sulphurous".

Actually, now that I've posted this, I'm beginning to suspect "sulphurated waters" refers to more spa water for bathing in, rather than drinking, but I'll leave it in anyway as a curiosity.
