Import Tips
• Confirm the sand has not been subjected to non-metallurgical processes (e.g
• chemical treatment) that would exclude it from Chapter 26
• Keep records of the source deposit and TiO2 content for CBSA verification
• Note that the statistical unit of measure is based on metal content, so report accordingly
