Brazilian Compact Magnesite from Japan

Dense, compact natural magnesite from Bahia, Brazil, prized for its high bulk density and low porosity in refractory applications. It is a natural magnesium carbonate in the crude or crushed state, not subjected to calcination or other processing beyond physical treatment, so it falls under tariff item 2519.10.00.
