Blue Flames and Volcanic Hikes: the Harsh, Spectacular World of Sulfur Mining
A mountain guide takes a photograph of ignited sulfuric gas, known as blue fire or blue frame, as it rises from the Ijen volcano at night in Banyuwangi, East Java, Indonesia, on Thursday, June 2, 2016. Sulfur isn't an easy material to mine manually, but the environment it's found in can be spectacular: sulfuric gases can combust on contact with air, creating an electric-blue flame. The Ijen volcano is a harsh workplace for the miners who travel there daily, as well as a tourist attraction for adventurous travelers. Photographer: Tomohiro Ohsumi/Bloomberg via Getty Images
