| rdfs:comment | - Talc is a metamorphic mineral that is composed of of hydrated magnesium silicate. It's chemical composition is Mg3Si4O10(OH)2. Talc can be found in colors such as green, white, gray, brown, or colorless. Known as a soft mineral as it is only rated 1 on the mohs scale. The cleavage of Talc is rated as perfected. And the gravity on Talc is 2.7 or 2.8. China is currently holding the number one position for producing the most Talc annually producing about 2,000 metric tons. The location of finding any Talc is in metamorphic rocks of convergent plate boundaries.
- Talc was a slick substance. Relin Druur believed the metal of the hyperdrive of the Sith dreadnaught Harbinger to be as slick as talc.
- It occurs as foliated to fibrous masses, its monoclinic crystals being so rare as to be almost unknown. It has a perfect basal cleavage, and the folia are non-elastic, although slightly flexible. It is very soft and sectile (can be cut with a knife); with a Mohs hardness of 1, it can be easily scratched by a fingernail. It has a specific gravity of 2.5–2.8, a clear or dusty luster, and is translucent to opaque. Talc is not soluble in water, but it is slightly soluble in dilute mineral acids. Its colour ranges from white to grey or green and it has a distinctly greasy feel. Its streak is white. Talc is a metamorphic mineral resulting from the metamorphism of magnesian minerals such as serpentine and olivine, in the presence of carbon dioxide and water. This is known as talc carbonation or s

Talc is a metamorphic mineral resulting from the metamorphism of magnesian minerals such as serpentine and olivine, in the presence of carbon dioxide and water. This is known as talc carbonation or steatization and produces a suite of rocks known as talc carbonates.
