Products classified under Tariff item 2612.20
Allanite Thorium Concentrate
Allanite thorium concentrate is a mineral product derived from epidote-group minerals, processed from metamorphic rock deposits to enrich thorium content. It is used primarily for thorium extraction and falls under this tariff item as a thorium ore concentrate.
2612.20.00Monazite Sand Concentrate
Monazite sand concentrate is a naturally occurring mineral sand enriched with thorium oxide and rare earth elements, processed for thorium recovery. It is a thorium-bearing ore concentrate, fitting the scope of this tariff item.
2612.20.00Processed Monazite Ore Fines
Processed monazite ore fines are finely ground particles from monazite ore, subjected to magnetic separation to elevate thorium oxide levels. These fines are intended for thorium refining and qualify as thorium concentrates under this tariff item.
2612.20.00Thorite Ore Concentrate
Thorite ore concentrate is derived from thorium silicate mineral, concentrated via gravity separation from granitic pegmatites. It is a primary thorium ore concentrate, directly matching the description of this tariff item.
2612.20.00Thorium-Bearing Beach Sand
Thorium-bearing beach sand is a heavy mineral sand concentrate from coastal deposits, enriched with thorium from monazite and other minerals. It is imported for thorium ore recovery, fitting the scope of this tariff item as a thorium concentrate.
2612.20.00Uranothorite Mixed Ore
Uranothorite mixed ore is a thorium-uranium silicate ore where thorium predominates, mined from vein deposits and concentrated for separation. It qualifies as a thorium ore concentrate under this tariff item, given thorium is the primary metal.
2612.20.00Vein-Deposit Thorium Ore
Vein-deposit thorium ore is extracted from hydrothermal vein systems and minimally processed into concentrates for metal recovery. It is a primary thorium ore, directly falling under this tariff item for thorium ores and concentrates.
