Economic Template:Ls have special uses as Template:L, Template:L or Template:L, or other uses like making special items. In technical terms, an economic stone is any stone which can be used as a reagent in any form of Template:L. Template:L is an exception, having been made an economic stone even though it is not used in any reaction - its specialty is that it can be used to craft swords.

(In the same vein, Template:L is unique as a material for Template:L Template:L, but, oddly, is not listed with in the economic stones menu as of version 40d, and so cannot be controlled in a similar fashion.)

You can use the z : Stone menu to restrict or un-restrict their use in the production of items and buildings. If you want to use an economic stone for something other than its listed uses, the stone must be green in that menu. This is critical when making a Template:L Template:L, or preventing your Template:Ls from making Template:L out of all your Template:L stone.

The z-Status: Stone menu will also show what each stone can be used for -- useful when you are wondering what to do with a pile of Template:L.

This is a list of non-ore stones only; see Template:L, or the article on that specific material, for more information.
