If the bort diamonds are of gem quality despite being cleaved
Gem-quality diamonds, even if cleaved, are classified separately from industrial diamonds.
If the diamonds have been further processed beyond simple cleaving
Additional working beyond simple cleaving would move the goods to a different subheading.
If the diamonds are crushed into dust or powder
Diamond dust and powder are classified under a different heading.
