Import Tips
• Provide assay reports showing scandium content exceeds other rare-earths; scandium is expensive—insure shipments
• Use inert atmosphere packaging to prevent hydrolysis; declare exact hydrate/anhydrous status
• Avoid bulk import without proper ventilation labeling; pitfall is classification as organometallic if impure
