1. A method of soil treatment comprising the step of contacting a soil with a suspension comprising up to about 10% w/w of spherical sulfur particles of less than 45 microns in size, with a mean granule size of approximately 20-30 μm, said spherical sulfur particles being produced from injecting an unbroken stream of a molten sulfur under a pulsation free pressure of from about 3447.38 kPa to about 20684.27 kPa, from a distance of about 30 to about 101 mm, into a tempered water moving at velocity, to produce a physical reaction of said molten sulfur with said tempered water to produce said sulfur particles.
