Overview
This category, HTS Code 2620.99.75.80, specifically covers "Other materials containing gold" that fall within the broader classification of slag, ash, and residues. These are materials that are by-products of industrial processes, not primarily manufactured for their own sale, and have not undergone significant processing to enhance their value or condition. For inclusion here, the material must contain gold.
It is crucial to distinguish this category from its siblings. HTS Code 2620.99.75.60 covers similar residues but specifically those containing silver, while 2620.99.75.90 encompasses all other residual materials that do not contain vanadium, silver, or gold. Therefore, the presence of gold is the defining characteristic for this particular classification. This classification also excludes materials intended for the recovery of copper, lead, or zinc if they contain over 2 percent by weight of those specific metals.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this code depends on the confirmed presence of gold within the residue and the absence of specific concentrations of other metals that would place it in a different category. This ensures that materials are precisely categorized based on their elemental composition and origin as industrial residues.
