Sulfur is extracted by two main processes: Sicilian and Frasch. Sicilian- powdered sulfur is put on the top of the deposit and ignited. AS it burns the sulfur melts from the heat causing the molten sulfur to flow down the hills. Cool huh? Frasch- uses pipes to heat the sulfur, air compresses it (to foam) and it flows out the pipe.
