Reformation of soap stone[edit]

There is no scientific evidence that soapstone “reforms” after 5 to 10 years when the fill from mining is buried, particularly since it takes 300 million years to form. This claim seems to be taken from a site that sells and markets soapstone art products. 2601:482:4580:41F0:48B7:E832:EBBD:25BF (talk) 04:14, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
