Talc naturally occurs in the form of foliated white, gray, or green compacted masses. It is commonly found in metamorphic rocks and is often associated with other minerals such as chlorite, serpentine, and magnesite. Talc can be further processed into fine powders for various industrial and cosmetic applications.
Talc typically forms from the metamorphism of magnesium-rich rocks such as serpentine or pyroxenite. It can also form hydrothermally from the alteration of magnesium-rich minerals in the presence of water. Talc deposits are commonly found in association with ultramafic rocks and in metamorphic environments.
The parent rock of soapstone is typically serpentine. Soapstone forms when talc, a soft mineral, replaces the magnesium in the parent rock serpentine through a process called metasomatism.
talc doesn't react with water at all as the talc is insoluble in water.it is chemicaaly called hydrated magnesium silicate.there may be a slight reaction of talc powder or talc with mineral acids.talc is now widely called talcum powder
