Anglesite Lead Sulfate Ore
Anglesite (PbSO4) forms as a secondary mineral in oxidized lead deposits, often colorless or gray prismatic crystals. It qualifies as lead ore under HTS 2607.00.00 when concentrated for lead recovery via reduction processes. Commonly associated with galena in mining operations.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If chemically pure synthetic lead sulfate
Manufactured sulfates for chemical use shift to Chapter 28 inorganic chemicals.
If tin-lead mixed ores
Ores with tin content classify under 2609, not pure lead ores.
If leaching residues from sulfate processing
Processing residues used for metal recovery go to 2620.

Galena Lead Ore
Galena is the primary mineral form of lead sulfide (PbS), a dense metallic ore typically found in hydrothermal veins. It is mined and processed as lead ore and concentrate under HTS 2607.00.00 because it contains over 50% lead by weight and is used directly for lead extraction. The coarse crystalline structure makes it suitable for crushing and flotation concentration.
Cerussite Lead Carbonate Ore
Cerussite (PbCO3) is a lead carbonate mineral often found in oxidized zones of lead deposits, appearing as white, adamantine crystals. Classified under HTS 2607.00.00 as a lead ore when lead content exceeds threshold levels post-concentration. It requires roasting to convert to oxide before smelting.
Lead-Zinc Flotation Concentrate
A processed concentrate from froth flotation separating lead sulfides from gangue and zinc minerals in polymetallic ores. Falls under HTS 2607.00.00 as lead-bearing material with 50-70% PbS content. Primarily used in primary lead smelters.
Mississippi Valley Type Lead Concentrate
Concentrate from MVT deposits like those in Missouri, rich in high-grade galena with minimal impurities. Classified under HTS 2607.00.00 due to its lead-dominant composition (60-85% Pb). Known for low silica content ideal for direct smelting.
Pyromorphite Lead Phosphate Ore
Pyromorphite (Pb5(PO4)3Cl) is a rare lead phosphate mineral forming vibrant green hexagonal prisms in oxidized zones. It is imported as ore under HTS 2607.00.00 when lead content justifies extraction economics. Used in specialty lead recovery.
