More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If chemically separated rare earth compounds
Extracted individual rare earth oxides classify as inorganic compounds in Chapter 28.
If thorium-uranium bearing monazite
Uranium/thorium ores take precedence over rare earth classification under heading 2612.
If natural uranium-rare earth mixtures
Concentrates with reportable uranium content shift to Chapter 28 radioactive materials.
