Sulfur is a native element mineral consisting of elemental sulfur. It typically forms as yellow, resinous to silky crystals or as crusty masses, and it often exhibits a pale to dull luster with a resinous to greasy appearance. In crystals, the habit can be tabular or prismatic, and often occurs in nodular or volcanic environments associated with sulfide mineralization. Notable specimens come from classic sulfur districts such as Italy and Poland, with other important sources including Bolivia, the United States, and Spain, where hydrothermal and volcanic processes deliver vivid, earthy to bright yellow specimens.
