Roughly Trimmed Quartz Slab from Mexico
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.

Import Tips
• 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
