This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If manganese content falls below 20% dry weight
Ores with <20% Mn are treated as iron ores under 2601 if iron particles exceed 4.75mm.
If chemically processed into other metal ores
Processed residues or tailings shift to heading 2617 for non-manganese metal ores.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit laboratory assays from accredited labs showing dry weight Mn content to customs
• Segregate shipments by grade to prevent blending that could drop below 20% threshold
• Include geological origin details, as some deposits may require special environmental declarations
