It is a mixture
This can be done by the processs of magnetism. Holding amagent near the mixture will cause the iron filings to be attracted out of the sand.
First, place the sulfur, sand and iron filings in a plastic container. Next, use a magnet to remove the iron filings from the sulfur-sand mixture and surely,the iron filings will connect to the magnet, leaving the sulfur and sand behind.
Here's the full scientific report I had to do in year 7. Title: Magnetic Separation Aim: To separate iron filings from sand using a magnet. Equipment: Magnet, sand and iron filing mixture, plastic bowl Method: 1. Pour the mixture into the plastic bowl 2. Move the magnet slowly through the mixture Results: When the magnet was moved through the mixture, it picked up the iron filings but not the sand. Conclusion: In this experiment we demonstrated that a magnet can pick up iron filings in a sand and iron filing mixture through magnetism. The aim was achieved as we were able to separate the iron filings from the sand.
First you want to get the iron filings out. You do this with a magnet.Next, put the sand-salt mixture in water. Stir well to dissolve the salt, then pour off the water. (If you really want to be slick about it, rinse the sand in plain water.)Then put the salt water in a shallow dish and let it evaporate.
To separate a mixture of iron filings, sand, and camphor, you can use a magnet to attract the iron filings, leaving the sand and camphor behind. Then, you can dissolve the camphor in water as it is soluble, allowing the sand to settle at the bottom. Finally, you can filter out the sand to obtain separate components.
In solution, the salt will be dissolved in the water, the sand and iron will settle to the bottom of the container. Separate out the water, evaporate the water and the salt will remain, separate the sand and iron filings with a magnet.

An iron filings and sand mixture is a suspension because the particles are large enough to settle out over time due to gravity. In a solution, the particles are uniformly distributed and do not settle.
Iron filings removed magnetically. Water will dissolve sodium chloride and suspend sand. Sand can be filtered out of the solution, and salt reovered by evaporation of water. Naphthalene can be removed separately if necessary by solution of mixture in alcohol.
One way to physically remove iron filings from sand is to use a magnet. Pass the magnet over the mixture to attract the iron filings, leaving the sand behind. Alternatively, you could use a sieve to separate the larger iron filings from the smaller sand particles.
To separate a mixture of sand, iron filings, and salt, you can use a magnet to remove the iron filings, then dissolve the salt in water and filter the sand out. Lastly, evaporate the water to obtain the salt.
By using a magnet to separate the iron filings, you'd be left with the sulfur and sand mix. Selecting a solvent for the sulfur will allow you to dissolve the sulfur, and then all you have to do is put the sand in a filter and wash the sulfur through with the solvent.
