Roughly Trimmed Quartz Slab
A large slab of natural quartz, roughly trimmed by sawing into a rectangular shape, intended for further processing into countertops or tiles. It falls under HTS 2506.10.0050 as 'other' quartz, not natural sands, that is merely cut into blocks or slabs without further shaping. This distinguishes it from finished quartz products or sands.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If containing pebbles or mixed with other minerals
Pebble or gravel quartz mixes classify under heading 2517 per chapter note prioritizing that heading.
If polished or further worked into marble-like finish
Any polishing or beyond rough trimming moves to Chapter 68 for worked monumental stone.
If in silica sand form rather than blocks
Finely ground quartz as natural sands falls under 2505, not lump or slab quartz.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify the quartz is not further fabricated beyond rough sawing to avoid reclassification under Chapter 68 as worked stone
• Provide geological certification or lab analysis confirming pure quartz composition to distinguish from quartzite
• Ensure slabs meet 'merely cut' criteria; any polishing shifts to higher duty headings
