About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS category, 2611.00.60.00, specifically covers concentrates of tungsten. Concentrates are intermediate products derived from the crushing and processing of tungsten-bearing ores. The purpose of this processing is to increase the concentration of tungsten minerals, making them more suitable for subsequent smelting and refining operations. These concentrates typically contain a significantly higher percentage of tungsten than the raw ore.

This category is distinct from its sibling, 2611.00.30.00 (Ores). While both relate to tungsten, the key difference lies in the degree of processing. Ores are the raw, extracted mineral material, whereas concentrates represent a beneficiated form of that ore, with impurities removed and the valuable tungsten minerals aggregated. Classification into this category hinges on the material having undergone physical or chemical processing to elevate its tungsten content beyond that of the naturally occurring ore.

As a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories branching from 2611.00.60.00. Therefore, classification within this code is definitive for tungsten concentrates. Examples of such concentrates could include wolframite concentrates or scheelite concentrates, provided they meet the processing and purity criteria to be classified as a concentrate rather than a raw ore.
