Not a space exploration expert. It seems like the presence of sulfur on the Moon has been known for a long time [1] but perhaps it's newsworthy that sulfur is more abundant in some regions (like the south pole) than previously thought. [1] says that sulfur has broad applications, most importantly the ability to be a substitute for water in mechanical and chemical processes.
