For rocks to disappear, you can use catapults, dump them in magma, atomsmash them, quantum stockpile them or -as you tried- edit the raws. Mudstone is found in the inorganic_stone_layer.txt-file (for 31.##) or matgloss_stone_layer.txt (for 41d##).

EDIT: missed the obvious solution, which is to use them for crafts or blocks for a megaconstruction.

Just set the vaporisation point ridiculously low. It will turn that type of stone and everything made out of it into gas. Enjoy.

This is a platinum warhammer. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. it menaces with spikes of platinum.
there is an image of the goblin Utes Gozrusrozsnus and dwarves in elf bone. The goblin is making a plaintive gesture. the dwarves are striking a menacing pose.
this image relates to the slaying of Utes Gozrusroz

Add [BOILING_POINT:10000] to the raws for the stones in question.  Then they'll boil at any temperature above freezing.  Lower the number if you need to.
