Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the ore is a complex concentrate containing both precious and base metals
Precious metal ores and concentrates not elsewhere specified fall under heading 2616, shifting from lead-specific classification.
If processed into slag or residues used for metal extraction
Slag, ash, and residues containing metals like gold for industrial extraction are covered by heading 2620 per chapter notes.
If refined into unwrought gold
Once smelted and purified, gold becomes a finished metal product under Chapter 71, no longer an ore.
