Subheadings
Products classified under HTS 7108.12.50
99.99% Pure Gold Granules
High-purity gold granules, typically 99.99% fine, used in jewelry fabrication and electronics. Classified under HTS 7108.12.50 as non-monetary unwrought gold in granular form, not in powder form per subheading note (less than 90% passing 0.5mm sieve). These are irregular small pieces suitable for melting and casting.
Pure Gold Flakes
Thin gold flakes (99.9% pure) mechanically separated, not powdered. Other unwrought form under HTS 7108.12.50 for non-monetary use in gilding and electronics. Irregular flat pieces qualify as unwrought.
24K Gold Nuggets
Natural or refined 24 karat gold nuggets in irregular lump form, weighing 1-10 grams each. Falls under HTS 7108.12.50 as other unwrought non-monetary gold, distinct from bars or powder. Commonly used by jewelers for custom designs.
Gold Pellets for Electronics
Small cylindrical gold pellets (99.95% pure) used in semiconductor bonding wire production. HTS 7108.12.50 covers these as other unwrought non-monetary forms, not powder. Pellets are cast and irregular enough to qualify as unwrought.
Refined Gold Sponge
Porous gold sponge (99.9% pure) produced from chemical precipitation, before final casting. Classified in HTS 7108.12.50 as other unwrought form, non-powder, non-monetary. Used in dental and jewelry alloying.
Investment Gold Shots
Small 1-gram gold shots (99.99% pure) cast for investment or fabrication melting. HTS 7108.12.50 as other unwrought non-monetary gold forms, distinct from standard bars. Popular for small-scale investors and refiners.
Dental Gold Pellets
High-purity gold pellets formulated for dental crown alloys. Non-monetary unwrought under HTS 7108.12.50, other forms. Meets chapter notes for unwrought before alloying/melting in dental labs.
Jewelry Gold Grain
Fine gold grains (22-24K) in coarse grain form for jeweler's torch melting. HTS 7108.12.50 covers as other unwrought, non-powder grains. Standard for lost-wax casting investment.
