The affinity of this species for native sulfur has yet to be explained.

Native sulfur may be produced by geological processes alone.

Copiapite can easily be distinguished from native sulfur because it does not give off an odor when dissolved in water.

It occurs in association with native sulfur, kladnoite, mascagnite, and boussingaultite.

In nature, bararite appears with cryptohalite, sal ammoniac, and native sulfur.

Associated minerals include sodium alum, native sulfur and other fumarole minerals.

It is a sublimation product that forms with cryptohalite, sal ammoniac, and native sulfur.

It occrs with native sulfur, sal ammoniac, letovicite, alunogen and boussingaultite.

It also occurs in volcanic sublimates, in native sulfur deposits and rarely in caves.

Occurs associated with alunogen, pickeringite, epsomite, melanterite, gypsum and native sulfur.

It is a very rare organic mineral which occurs in coal fire environments in association with sal ammoniac and native sulfur.

Salt domes contain anhydrite, gypsum, and native sulfur, in addition to halite and sylvite.

The caprock above the salt domes is sometimes the site of deposits of native sulfur, which is recovered by the Frasch process.

Sulfur occurs naturally as the pure element (native sulfur) and as sulfide and sulfate minerals.

As a mineral, native sulfur under salt domes is thought to be a fossil mineral resource, produced by the action of ancient bacteria on sulfate deposits.

Associated minerals include, native sulfur, bravoite, pyrite, minasragrite, stanleyite, dwornikite, quartz and vanadium bearing lignite.

Another recipe, for artificial "thunder", specifies a mixture of one pound native sulfur, two pounds linden or willow charcoal, and six pounds of saltpeter.

It occurs in low temperature, sulfur rich environments associated with solfataras and salt deposits in association with native sulfur, realgar, gypsum and calcite.

In this method, superheated water was pumped into a native sulfur deposit to melt the sulfur, and then compressed air returned the 99.5% pure melted product to the surface.
