Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If amorphous or lump natural graphite form
Non-crystalline natural graphite classifies under 'other natural graphite,' based on mineral structure rather than processing.
If further processed into electrodes or carbon products
Finished graphite electrodes are electrical articles in Chapter 85, not raw mineral flakes.
If chemically treated for specific industrial preparations
Treated graphite flakes become chemical products under Chapter 38 if prepared for non-mineral end-uses.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include third-party lab test reports confirming crystalline structure via X-ray diffraction to differentiate from amorphous graphite
• Avoid common pitfall of bulk packaging misdeclared as ore; use 'crystalline flake graphite' exact terminology on entry docs
• Check for anti-dumping duties if sourced from China; file scope rulings if blended with other carbons
