Soapstone is an Archaeological material that can be obtained through excavating material caches or various excavation hotspots, requiring level 60 Archaeology, at various excavation sites around RuneScape.

Soapstone is required to restore various artefacts. As players increase their Archaeology level and use higher tier mattocks, they are able to excavate soapstone at quicker rates.

Soapstone, like other Archaeology materials, can be stored in the material storage container. An unlimited amount of soapstone can be stored in the material storage container.
