Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If briquetted from coarse ore particles >4.75 mm
Statistical note defines coarse based on majority particle size pre-agglomeration.
If converted to ferroalloys
Processed into alloys moves to Chapter 72 from raw ores.
If from municipal waste incineration
Ash/residues from waste incineration excluded from 2620 and classified here.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide magnetic susceptibility tests if disputing ore type for classification accuracy
• Declare exact binding agents used in briquetting to confirm no chemical alteration
• Monitor for arsenic content, as residues with arsenic go to heading 2620
