Products classified under HTS 2617.90.00.30
Bertrandite Ore Concentrate
Bertrandite is a primary beryllium-bearing silicate mineral ore mined primarily in the United States, concentrated to increase beryllium oxide content for industrial extraction. It falls under HTS 2617.90.00.30 as a beryllium ore and concentrate, distinct from processed beryllium metal or compounds.
Emerald-Green Beryl Ore
Crude beryl ore with emerald-green coloration, containing 10-12% beryllium oxide, extracted from pegmatite deposits and supplied as concentrates. Classified under HTS 2617.90.00.30 specifically for its beryllium content as an 'other' ore.
Phenakite Beryllium Ore Concentrate
Phenakite, a rare beryllium silicate mineral (Be2SiO4), processed into concentrates for beryllium recovery in nuclear and defense applications. It qualifies under HTS 2617.90.00.30 as an 'other' beryllium ore.
Helvite-Dreierkobalt Beryllium Ore
Helvite-group minerals containing beryllium, sulfides, and iron, concentrated for selective beryllium extraction. Falls under HTS 2617.90.00.30 as rare 'other' beryllium ores used in specialty metallurgy.
Brazilian Beryl Concentrate (10% BeO)
High-grade beryl concentrate from Minas Gerais, Brazil, with standardized 10% beryllium oxide content for consistent extraction yields. HTS 2617.90.00.30 covers this as imported beryllium ore.
