Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If predominant precious metal content
Precious metal ore residues including cyanidation tailings classified in 2616.
If peroxo/compound extracted form
Thallium peroxides/oxides post-extraction shift to Chapter 28 chemicals.
If prepared for chemical analysis use
Residues refined as chemical preparations move from slag to Chapter 38.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Pair with cyanide residue handling protocols; dual hazmat classifications possible
• Request advance ruling on gold vs. thallium dominance to confirm 2620 applicability
• Budget for sampling at entry; CBP often tests cyanidation residues for precious metal declaration
