Non-Agglomerated Hematite Iron Ore Fines from Mexico
Hematite iron ore fines with iron content typically 60-65%, consisting of particles mostly under 6.3mm in size, non-agglomerated and directly usable in blast furnaces after screening. Classified under HTS 2601.11.00 as non-agglomerated iron ores and concentrates, excluding roasted pyrites, due to its natural fine particle form without pelletizing or sintering.

Import Tips
• Obtain accurate assay certificates showing iron content without deductions, as required by statistical notes for quantity reporting
• Ensure particle size distribution documentation confirms non-agglomerated status (mostly <6.3mm) to avoid reclassification
• Verify origin certificates; Brazilian or Australian fines common—watch for anti-dumping duties on specific sources
