Soapstone is a metamorphic rock that is composed primarily of talc and is thus rich in magnesium, with varying amounts of chlorite , micas, amphiboles, carbonates and other minerals . Because it is composed primarily of talc, it is <strong>considered soft(though still solid, its only called soft because of its low value interms of hardness scale)</strong> however soapstone in this case is gray in color. Its name is derived from its “soapy” feel and softness.</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">It most often forms at convergent plate boundaries where broad areas of Earth’s crust are subjected to heat and directed pressure. In other words by dynamothermal metamorphism and metasomatism, which occurs in the areas where tectonic plates are subducted, changing rocks by heat and pressure, with influx of fluids, but without melting. The Yoruba of West Nigeria utilized soapstone for several statues most notably at Esie where archaeologists have uncovered hundreds of male and female statues, about half of life size. The Yoruba of Ife also produced a miniature soapstone obelisk with metal studs called superstitiously "the staff of Oranmiyan". Currently, soapstone are mainly mined and abundant in Brazil, India and Finland and are exported to other countries.</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "><a href="http://www.geology.com/rocks/soapstone.shtml">Ref1</a> | <a href="http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soapstone">Ref2</a> | <a href="http://www.thestonestudio.biz/backsplash__blog_/view/646/skipping_stones__variety_in_soapstone_">Ref3</a></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">In Narutoverse, Soapstone can be said to exist due to several reasons. There are earthcrust, rock formations that are there for as long as life begins, sculptures and statutes which can be carved out of iceflower, Cooking slabs, hearths, Cold stone and electical panels as Narutoverse has been seen with electricity times without number. </div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">In Konoha sato, the hokage faces are carved out of rocks and case are seen when minerals are been brought up from within the earthcrust like Kitsuchi's "Earth Release, Opening Earth Rising Evacuation. Mining is also a process that is done in Narutoverse which explained varieties of things like the possibility of soapstone being extracted out of earth.</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "><span style="color: purple"><strong>How it works:</strong></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Since soapstone is an earth mineral, it needs earth as its source. The user uses his earth chakra to retrieve earthen mineral from the earth as earth chakra allows one to manipulate also earth minerals, while using his fire chakra to make it soft then water chakra to cool it. Combining this three processes, the user is able to create pure soapstone from earth sources. <strong>In a nutshell, the user uses soapstone chakra kneaded in his body and focused into the earth to bring up soapstone while using earth as the source. Also like how earth jutsu can be molded from the user's body, soapstone can follow similar principle thus the user can knead soapstone chakra within himself allowing him to be able to spew soapstone from the mouth or create it by sipping its chakra out from part of his body or his entire self.</strong> </div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Soapstone is relatively <strong>solid though not very hard because of its high talc content</strong>, talc having a definitional value of 2.5 on the Mohs scale, a mineral hardness same with silver which can just barely be scratched with a fingernail. Soapstone has many physical properties which make it valuable for many different uses. These physical properties include:</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "><img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♦" title="Diamond suit :diamonds:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/2666.png" data-shortname=":diamonds:" /> Soft and Easy to Carve: Makes it quick in assuming any shape possible without difficulty and because of this, it makes shape manipulation very fast and fluid. Its softness however does not mean it has no piercing power, it relatively means it can be pierced by matter with greater density and hardness, an example is why even intangible matter such as wind, fire and lightning and softer element are found to posses piercing ability.</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "><img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♦" title="Diamond suit :diamonds:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/2666.png" data-shortname=":diamonds:" /> Nonporous and Nonabsorbent, Heat Resistant and High Specific Heat Capacity: Soapstone is not permeable to water, fluids and even air because of its structure which is dense, without pores, does not stain and repels water. Those properties make soapstone used as tiles and wall panels a good choice for showers, tub surrounds and backsplashes.</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Also its resistant to heat or cold, light and moisture which makes light not able to pass through it via refraction. It is incapable of absorbing heat thus it can't burn nor be melted, a reason why it is used as excellent wall covering behind wood burning stoves and ovens, hearths. Fireplace liner and cooking slabs are also lined with soapstone to create a hearth that quickly absorbs heat and radiates it long after the fire is out. However soapstone will conditionally take heat though with extremely high heat capacity and would only do so at extreme heat say 1000–1200 °C, then it undergoes transformation which is simply increase in hardness with moh scale range of 5.5-6.5. </div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "><img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♦" title="Diamond suit :diamonds:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/2666.png" data-shortname=":diamonds:" /> Low electrical conductivity: Soapstone is often used as an insulator or in housing for electrical components, due to its durability and electrical</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">characteristics and because it can be pressed into complex shapes before firing. It is also used in the fabrication of electrical panels which requires approximately zero current resistivity. However RPwise lightning has a strong impact force and hence is considered neutral to soapstone.</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "><img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♦" title="Diamond suit :diamonds:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/2666.png" data-shortname=":diamonds:" /> Resistant to Acids and Alkalis: Soapstone is often used as an alternative natural stone countertop instead of granite or marble. In laboratories it is unaffected by acids and alkalis thus soapstone can't be affected by corrosive chemicals, can't decompose or decay. When used as countertops in kitchens, it is not stained or altered by tomatoes, wine,</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">vinegar, grape juice and other common food items.</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "><span style="color: purple"><strong>Conditions to be able to use it:</strong></span> </div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Mastery over Earth, Fire and Water Release.</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: "><span style="color: purple"><strong>Example Techniques:</strong></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">[spoiler]</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Toseki: Arashi Fukurami - Soapstone Release: Tempest Bulge </div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Rank: A</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Type: Defense/Attack</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Range: Short-Long</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Chakra: 30</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Damage: 60</div> <div style="text-align: justify; max-width: ">Description: The user forms a dome made of soapstone that comes out  from within the earth.
