Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for crude or unrefined rare-earth residues
Chapter exclusions cover ore processing residues in 2615, not chemically defined purified carbonates.
If another rare-earth metal predominates over lanthanum
Parallel subheading for non-lanthanum predominant mixtures in the same hierarchy.
If containing nitrogen for fertilizer applications
Mixtures with nitrogen compounds fall under Chapter 31 exclusions for mineral fertilizers.
