Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If calcined to zirconia (ZrO2) powder
Heat-treated baddeleyite becomes Chapter 28 chromium oxides/zirconia compounds.
If extraction residue from zirconia processing
Leached baddeleyite tailings qualify under Chapter 2620 notes for metal extraction residues.
If unprocessed natural baddeleyite crystals
Crude mineral specimens for collectors classify as Chapter 25 natural mineral products.

Import Tips & Compliance
β’ Hafnium/zirconium ratio testing required, as low-hafnium grades suit nuclear uses under specific regulations
β’ Declare precise ZrO2 content per statistical notes to prevent reclassification as slag
β’ Use ventilated containers to manage silica dust during handling
