An Indonesian sulphur miner takes a break along the difficult route out of the Ijen volcano.
The Ijen volcano is one of the few places where sulphur is still mined without machines, the crater at the volcano has an active vent that produces elemental sulphur. Breathing in sulphur gas can cause long term health implications but despite this, there is no shortage of local miners willing to risk everything to earn a good salary, miners make an average income three times higher than the local salary. Pure sulphur is used in household cleaning products, make up, explosives and purification of sugar. The volcano also attracts tourists who come to witness the natural phenomena known as the blue flame.//SOPAIMAGES_1.0033/2001030927/Credit:Edward Crawford / SOPA Im/SIPA/2001030930 (FOTO: DUKAS/SIPA) *** Local Caption *** 00938610
