Talc is a mineral used in your everyday life. Most of the people are familiar with this mineral. Talc is one of the most widely-used natural minerals in different industries. Talc can be crushed into a white powder known as Talc powder. This powder has the ability to absorb moisture, absorb oils, absorb odor, and serve as a lubricant, etc. This powder is used as an important material in human’s life. Another type of talc is known as soapstone that is a soft rock and has been used to make ornamental and practical objects like seals, sculptures, bowls, etc. Though Talc powder and soapstone are two of the more visible uses of Talc, they form a very small fraction of Talc consumption.
