Soapstone, popularly known as soap rock, has been used as carving medium since thousands of years. It is formed due to sinking of one tectonic plate below the other, which results in influx of fluid with the rock, due to high pressure and heat but without melting. The major component of soapstone is Talc while small amounts of iron and chromium oxides, amphiboles and chlorite are found in traces. By mass, it contains approximately *3% Silica, *1% Magnesia, 4% water and traces of other oxides like Calcium Oxide, Aluminium Oxide etc.
