"Mineral salts" basically means "it's a mix of a bunch of ionic compounds; we don't want to bother listing them all, and unless you're a chemistry nerd, the names wouldn't mean anything to you anyway." If it was a specific compound, they'd say what it was, for example "Epsom Salt" (which is magnesium sulfate heptahydrate).
