Agree with @fixedincome. Soggy mats are no good. Neither are graphite ones as they too are soggy. Rubber sounds rubbery. 
That would kill your sound big time.One of the best mats is the TW Acoustic its not cheap though($500.00).
I use 1" graphite over massive cast iron. Like Nottingham Analogue. Sounds neutral - certainly not ’soggy’. That said, it's extremely fine grain graphite - note that there are several grades. Maybe coarse graphite does sound soggy, for all I know.
I originally had a felt mat. Great if you like static electricity.
Tried a cork mat left over from a U-Turn audio turntable I had. (You can buy one from them FYI). Meh. 
I tried the Hudson Hifi acrylic mat. Has an indent for the label. That’s good. But no accounting for the thicker lead in edge of the record. Gone. 

Now I have the Herbie’s Way Excellent II Turntable Mat. https://herbiesaudiolab.com/collections/turntable-mats/products/way-excellent-ii-turntable-mat?varia...
It checks all the boxes. Has room for the record lead in edge. Great mat. Highly recommended and tried it based on someone else’s recommendation in this forum.
