Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7201.10.00.00Higher: 35% vs 25%

If non-agglomerated iron ore pellets

If blended into iron ore mixes for PCI, may classify under pig iron/steel Chapter 72.

2704.00.00Lower: Free vs 25%

If coked fines

Coking process converts to coke fines under 2704.10.

2710.19.11Same rate: 25%

If containing >70% benzene extracts

Highly unlikely, but aromatic extraction products shift to petroleum oils in 2710.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Include sulfur/phosphorus analysis (<1% typical) in entry docs for metallurgical verification

• Use ISPM-15 compliant wooden pallets if bagged to avoid fumigation delays

• Pre-clear with CBP on volatile matter certification from accredited labs

Raw Anthracite Coal

High-grade anthracite coal with volatile matter not exceeding 14 percent on a dry, mineral-matter-free basis, mined and supplied in lump form for industrial heating. Classified under HTS 2701.11.00.00 as anthracite coal, whether or not pulverized but not agglomerated. Ideal for steel production and power generation due to its high carbon content.

Pulverized Anthracite Dust

Finely ground anthracite coal powder meeting the ≤14% volatile matter limit, used in cement kilns and boilers. HTS 2701.11.00.00 covers anthracite whether or not pulverized, explicitly excluding agglomerated forms. Provides efficient combustion in pulverized coal injection systems.

Industrial Grade Anthracite Lumps

Large lump anthracite coal (50-150mm size) with low volatiles for metallurgical use in blast furnaces. Falls squarely under 2701.11.00.00 as non-agglomerated anthracite coal per official definition. High fixed carbon content minimizes impurities in steelmaking.

Washed Anthracite Screenings

Cleaned and screened anthracite fines (<10mm) post-washing to remove impurities, retaining ≤14% volatiles. HTS 2701.11.00.00 includes washed anthracite as long as not agglomerated. Used in residential stoker boilers and water purification filters.

Egg-Sized Anthracite Chunks

Uniform egg-sized (4-6 inch) anthracite pieces for home heating stoves, meeting strict anthracite volatiles spec. HTS 2701.11.00.00 as non-agglomerated lump coal. Burns longer and cleaner than softer coals.

Filter Anthracite Gravel

Graded anthracite gravel (1-4mm) for multi-media water filters, low volatiles confirming HTS 2701.11.00.00 status. Not agglomerated; uniform density for backwashing efficiency. Meets AWWA B204 standards for municipal treatment.
