I believe it is talc : )
Sandstone is a protolith as it is, so it does not have a protolith.
"protolith" refers to the original composition of an altered rock. for example, a basalt was the protolith to a rock thats presently a greenschist.
A protolith can be any igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic rock.

A conglomerate (sedimentary rock) is the protolith, or parent rock, of a metamorphic rock called a metaconglomerate.

The parent rock or protolith of phyllite is slate.

See website: Soapstone
A protolith can be any igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic rock.
The protolith of schist is typically shale or slate, which undergoes metamorphism to form schist. The protolith of anthracite coal is primarily bituminous coal, which is subjected to higher temperature and pressure conditions during metamorphism to convert into anthracite coal.
Soapstone is a metamorphic rock composed of the mineral talc. Soapstone is a non-foliated metamorphic rock with a microcrystalline texture. It is very soft and can be easily scratched.

peridotite
No, soapstone is dense, non-porous and does not absorb liquids. Water and oil can be adsorbed by talc and soapstone.
