Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the concentrate is primarily iron ore with manganese as a byproduct
Manganese ores are not specifically classified in 2602, but iron ores are; if manganese content is incidental, it may fall under iron ore.
