Per Wolfram Alpha, sulfur is 4.62 times heavier; the earth is 0.002% lithium, so it would experience a net gain of 3.62 * mass of earth * 0.00002, or 4.3e20kg. That's 7.24e-5 times heavier, so not much in the grand scheme of things.

Note that I'm neither a chemist, a physicist, or an astronomer, so I make no guarantee that I did this right.

Edit: misplaced decimal
