Bruted Miners' Diamonds Industrial Grade
Rough diamonds from miners' parcels that have undergone simple bruting (girder shaping) for dressing tools and abrasives. HTS 7102.21.10.20 covers these as 'other' unworked industrial diamonds not mounted, valued for hardness over clarity. Used in surface grinding and lapping operations.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If already made into millstones or grinding wheels
Finished abrasive products containing diamonds classify under Chapter 68, not raw Chapter 71.
If specifically graded as 'bort' rather than miners'
Crushed or fragmented industrial diamonds (bort) have separate unworked subheading.
If clad or inlaid into base metal tools
Note 7 defines metal clad with precious material, shifting from raw diamond classification.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Document bruting process doesn't exceed 'simple' working threshold per HTS definitions
• Use GIA or equivalent industrial diamond certification for customs valuation disputes
• Declare as 'industrial only - not for jewelry remounting' to preempt reclassification attempts

Miners' Type Ia Natural Diamond Rough
Rough natural diamonds classified as miners' diamonds, unworked except for simple sawing or cleaving, primarily Type Ia with nitrogen impurities. These fall under HTS 7102.21.10.20 as industrial-use diamonds not mounted or set, distinguished from gem-quality by color and clarity for mining applications. Used in drill bits for oil and gas extraction.
Rough Miners' Diamonds for PDC Drill Bits
Unworked miners' diamonds selected for polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) cutting tools in drilling operations. HTS 7102.21.10.20 applies to these simply cleaved natural diamonds unsuitable for gem use due to inclusions and color. Essential for high-pressure oilfield drilling equipment.
Cleaved Industrial Miners' Diamonds 3-5 Carat
Natural rough diamonds from mining operations, simply cleaved into 3-5 carat pieces for industrial saw blades and grinding wheels. Classified under 7102.21.10.20 as unworked miners' diamonds, not suitable for jewelry due to industrial grade imperfections. Key component in geological exploration tools.
Sawn Miners' Diamonds for Diamond Wire Sawing
Simply sawn miners' diamonds prepared for embedding in diamond wire used in stone cutting and semiconductor slicing. These industrial rough diamonds under HTS 7102.21.10.20 feature the required toughness but lack gem transparency. Critical for marble quarrying and silicon wafer production.
