Natural sulfur smelling like rotten eggs comes out of a cliff along a stream. We called it Sulfur Springs.-That’s hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg), you’re smelling. H2S. When you light a match, that’s sulfur dioxide, SO2, and that smell ain’t too bad. But H2S is VERY toxic. Pure sulfur is a yellow solid with no intrinsic odor of its own.
