Import Tips
• Submit particle size analysis if fines exceed coarse thresholds, though lead content drives classification
• Label shipments clearly as 'copper ore with lead content' to prevent confusion with pure lead ores
• Avoid bulk packaging without ventilation; moisture can lead to customs holds for safety
