Nepheline Syenite Feldspar Blend from United States
Nepheline syenite feldspar blend is a natural mineral product sourced from nepheline syenite deposits, valued for its low iron and high alkali content, making it ideal for paint extenders and ceramic applications. The dominant feldspar component ensures classification under tariff item 2529.10.00, even though the deposit also contains nepheline. The product is in a crude or mechanically processed state, consistent with Chapter 25 Note 1.
