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.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If worked beyond simple cleaving (e.g., faceted for tools)
More processed industrial diamonds shift to powdered or worked subheadings.
If already incorporated into finished drill bit tools
Mounted or assembled diamond tools classify as interchangeable tools, not raw diamonds.
If graded as 'miners' diamonds' but simply sawn only
Specific sawing without cleaving/bruting may align with adjacent unworked miners' subheading.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include end-use statements certifying industrial application to prevent misclassification as gem material
• Use ISED grading for industrial diamonds to document sieve size compliance if powdered form considered
• Bundle shipments under master KP certificate but provide parcel-level weights for accurate duty calculation
Related Products under HTS 7102.21.10.20
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.
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.
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.
