HS v2022 Code: 681591

About stone articles and articles of other mineral substances; containing magnesite, magnesia in the form of periclase, dolomite including in the form of dolime, or chromite

HS code 681591 covers a diverse range of stone and mineral-based articles, including those containing magnesite, magnesia, dolomite, and chromite. These materials have a wide variety of applications, from construction and industrial processes to specialized products. This industry plays a crucial role in supporting various sectors of the global economy, providing essential raw materials and components for a range of downstream industries.

Production process

The production of articles under HS code 681591 typically involves a combination of mining, processing, and manufacturing techniques. Raw materials are extracted from natural deposits, then undergo various stages of crushing, grinding, and purification to obtain the desired mineral compositions. Depending on the final product, the processed materials may be molded, cast, or shaped using specialized equipment and techniques, such as pressing, sintering, or extrusion.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of articles under HS code 681591 include the raw mineral resources, such as magnesite, magnesia, dolomite, and chromite. Additionally, the industry relies on various machinery and equipment for mining, processing, and manufacturing the final products. Energy sources, such as electricity or fuel, are also essential for powering the production facilities and processes.

Production outputs

The articles produced under HS code 681591 have a wide range of applications, including construction materials, industrial refractory products, and specialized components. These outputs may be consumed by industries covered under other HS codes, such as 680100 (Setts, curbstones and flagstones, of natural stone (except slate)), 680221 (Marble, travertine and alabaster, merely cut, by sawing or otherwise, into blocks or slabs of a rectangular (including square) shape), and 690210 Refractory bricks, blocks, tiles and similar refractory ceramic constructional goods, other than those of siliceous fossil meals or similar siliceous earths, among others.

Revisions to 681591

Classification codes are adjusted frequently. The code may have been revised or replaced between system versions. The table below shows the history (newest to oldest) of the code 681591. The most recent 1 version of this code (681591) is in the HS v2022 system (this version):
