Import Tips
• Provide detailed chemical assay reports for molybdenum content to meet statistical reporting without deductions
• Check for anti-dumping duties on molybdenum from certain countries like China
• Label shipments clearly as ore concentrate to prevent confusion with finished molybdenum products
