SULPHUR LUMPS
Pure Sulfur is bright yellow. The color
may be altered if impurities are present. Clay and selenium
impurities, as well as volcanic
mixtures in sulfur can cause it to be
slightly red, green, brown, or gray. Sulfur often occurs in
petroleum deposits, where it is found
coated with greasy black
petroleum.
Sulfur crystallizes in the orthorhombic
system, but an uncommon monoclinic form of sulfur also exists. This
monoclinic form is scientifically
considered a different mineral than
Sulfur, and is scientific name is Rosickyite. Most dealers selling
Rosickyite usually label the mineral as
"Monoclinic Sulfur".
Sulfur is soft, light in weight, and very
brittle. Therefore, care must be exercised when handling and
storing specimens. When kept moist or
not allowed to dry when wet, hydrogen will
mix with the Sulfur, forming hydrogen sulfide (H2S), which causes
the deterioration of a specimen.
To prevent this, Sulfur should not be
stored under humid conditions. (See Storing minerals for more
information). It is best not to wash Sulfur
specimens, as warm water will dissolve it.
Sulfur also the tendency to crack when exposed to even mild heat,
including body heat. It must be
handled as little as possible, and kept
out of light to avoid it from cracking.
Uses
Sulfur has many industrial uses. It is used in the manufacture
of black powder, matches and explosives. It is also used to create
rubber, in dyes, and as an insecticide and fungicide. It is
also used in the manufacturing of sulfuric acid.
