Soapstone is naturally a softer stone, since it is made up mostly by Talc, among other minerals. Some of these really hard Soapstones out there, have no Talc in them and in petrological terms cannot be called a soapstone, they are serpentinites.

While not as hard as granite, this material is more flexible. That means it is less breakable, so it won't crack unexpectedly from stress or weight. In addition, soapstone is very non-porous, another important strength that sets it apart from granite, basalt, sandstone and slate.

Soapstone is stain resistant, but will naturally darken with use. Since soapstone is inert and non-porous, it does not need to be sealed, although it is sometimes treated with mineral oil to achieve a dark, even appearance.

Soapstone is of course non-flammable and has a super high melting point, and talc is not chemically reactive to the caustic gases emitted by wood burning, so it won't stain or discolor in the same way as marble or limestone.
