Jamesonite Antimony-Lead Ore from Japan
Jamesonite (Pb4FeSb6S14) is a sulfosalt mineral ore containing both antimony and lead, mined as a primary antimony source in some deposits. It qualifies for HTS 2617.10.00.00 when antimony is the chief value, distinguishing it from pure lead ores. Concentrates are roasted to recover antimony for alloys and compounds.
