Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If non-coarse or agglomerated form
Iron ore agglomerates or fines without significant Mn classify under 2601 subheadings.
If containing metals but used for extraction
Residues or slags from ore processing for metal recovery fall under heading 2620.
If roasted or calcined
Calcined or roasted antimony ores shift to heading 2617; similar for processed Mn ores.
