Import Tips
• Verify quarry origin certification to confirm natural quartzite composition (min 90% SiO2) and avoid misclassification as sandstone
• Include geological assay reports in documentation; common pitfall is importing saw-cut slabs which shift to 2517.10
• Ensure blocks weigh over 50kg to qualify as 'crude'; smaller pieces may fall under statistical suffixes
