> What kind of stone could it be that a cast iron pan wouldn't be both higher thermal conductivity and also higher heat capacity?

cast iron pans are great, but a pizza stone can be much thicker than a skillet, so you can get a lot more heat capacity. not sure about the conductivity, but some "stones" are made of steel anyway.
