Material: Soapstone. Origin: Soapstone is a natural stone, like granite, that is quarried. It's composed mostly of mineral talc, which makes it quite soft, but soapstone used for countertops typically has higher percentages of quartz in it, which makes it harder and more suitable as a kitchen surface.aterial: Soapstone.

I have several 1 1/4â³ soapstone pieces with heat resistance to 2000 degrees and it is great to find out, or to learn, that soapstone is also a thermal heat conductor. My soapstone off-cuts come from a maker of kitchen bench-tops. Because of its thermal properties I intend to make stove with oven on one side heated up via a firing box located under these two and channel the heat in.
