Traditional sulfur mining at Ijen Volcano, East Java, Indonesia. This image shows the dangerous and rugged conditions the miners face, including toxic smoke and high drops, as well as their lack of protective equipment. The pipes over which they are standing serve to guide sulfur vapors and condense them, thereby easing (well, relatively at least) production.
  • You have an overly romantic view of sulphur mining. If you follow the links and read the article you will end up here (or look at the category). That is no "roof covered of moss" but pipes caked with condensed sulphur. Nothing grows in this 'one of the most toxic places on the planet'. --Cart (talk) 09:39, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
