Talc stone is known for being the softest mineral on earth, and can be easily scratched by a fingernail. Talc is not commonly seen in collections, as it is usually uninteresting and fairly common, although a few deeply colored and crystallized examples are known and well sought after. Also very popular are the Talc pseudo morphs.
Talc forms some very interesting pseudo morphs after many different minerals, and certain localities are known for the specific minerals replaced by Talc. Health concerns including a rare respiratory disease are known to be associated with Talc in its powder form. Although solid forms of Talc are assumed to be safe, and most concerns are only after prolonged exposure.
