This is because, by default, economic stones can '''only''' be used for their given purpose(s).

By going into the stone status section, you can allow your dwarves to use economic stone for any purpose. Simply scroll through the list to the particular stone you have an abundance of, and press {{key|Enter}} to toggle its availability for menial tasks.
