Sulfides.
Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is a compound that contains sulfur and oxygen. It is formed by the burning of sulfur or other sulfur-containing compounds, and is a common air pollutant.
Sulfur dioxide is produced when sulfur or compounds containing sulfur, such as sulfur-containing minerals, are heated in the presence of oxygen (air). This can occur during the combustion of fossil fuels, volcanic eruptions, or burning of sulfur-containing materials.
Carbonates - minerals composed of carbon and oxygen, such as calcite. Sulfides - minerals composed of metal cations and sulfur anions, like pyrite. Oxides - minerals containing metal cations and oxygen, like hematite. Halides - minerals formed from combinations of metal cations and halogen anions, such as halite.
The compound containing calcium and sulfur will have more mass than the compound containing calcium and oxygen. This is because sulfur has a greater atomic mass than oxygen.
The minerals that contain sulfur and oxygen is sulfates.
All materials and that includes minerals contain the elements. Sulfates contain sulfur and oxygen
The main mineral categories are silicates (containing silicon and oxygen), carbonates (containing carbon and oxygen), sulfides (containing sulfur), oxides (containing oxygen), sulfates (containing sulfate group), and halides (containing halogen elements). These categories are based on the chemical composition of minerals.

The equation for the formation of sulfur dioxide in an engine is SO2 = S + O2. When sulfur-containing fuel (such as diesel containing sulfur) is burned in the engine, sulfur reacts with oxygen in the air to form sulfur dioxide.

Burning sulfur in oxygen produces sulfur dioxide.
