Economic stones have special uses as ore, fuel or flux, or other uses like making special items. You can use the z : Stone menu to restrict or un-restrict their use in items and buildings. In technical terms, an economic stone is any stone which can be used as a reagent in any form of reaction. Obsidian and Bauxite are exceptions, as they can be used to make swords and magma-safe mechanisms respectively.

The Stone menu will also show what each stone can be used for--very useful for figuring out what you need to mine to make that obscure metal your noble is whining about.
