Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If calcium fluoride content ≤97%
Purity threshold determines subheading within fluorspar; lower grades go to 2529.21.
If chemically treated or prepared for specific industrial use
Chemically modified preparations shift to Chapter 38 as chemical products, not raw minerals.
If refractory-grade and shaped into bricks or blocks
Formed refractory products from fluorspar are classified under Chapter 69 as worked articles.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide particle size analysis and purity certificates; grinding doesn't change classification if >97% CaF2
• Declare exact mesh size on commercial invoice to comply with statistical reporting requirements
• Avoid bulk packaging without liners to prevent contamination affecting purity claims at entry
