Lake Talkov Stone is located in a talc field, hence his name. The Systema Plant for the extraction of Talc was first built in the Urals. Talc production took place for several decades, before reorientation to a new deposit. Work on his career was carried out until the beginning of 20 V, until the depth of the stone career reached the deep waters. Over time, the water flooded the stone blocks and the lake formed. After several decades, Lake Talkov Kamen received the status of a natural monument.
