Section 1 — Technical Identifiers
HS Codes · CAS Numbers · EC Numbers · HSN Codes
Every customs declaration, safety data sheet, and regulatory submission requires precise technical identification. Below: complete reference codes for potassium feldspar, sodium feldspar, and quartz — used by importers, customs authorities, and procurement teams worldwide.
| Product | HS / ITC-HS | CAS Number | EC Number | Formula |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🪨 Potash Feldspar (Orthoclase) | 2529 10 00 | 68476-25-5 | 270-666-7 | KAlSi₃O₈ |
| 🪨 Potash Feldspar (Microcline) | 2529 10 00 | 12251-43-3 | 235-620-3 | KAlSi₃O₈ |
| 💎 Soda Feldspar / Albite | 2529 10 00 | 12244-10-9 | 235-290-5 | NaAlSi₃O₈ |
| 🔷 Quartz / Quartzite | 2506 10 00 | 14808-60-7 | 238-878-4 | SiO₂ |
| ⬜ Silica Sand | 2505 10 00 | 14808-60-7 | 238-878-4 | SiO₂ |
Both potassium and sodium feldspar share the same HS/ITC-HS code 2529 10 00. Differentiate on the Commercial Invoice description: "Potassium Feldspar Powder" vs "Sodium Feldspar (Albite) Powder". Indian export duty: 0% on all feldspar and quartz under Chapter 25. ITC-HS = India's 8-digit extension of the WCO 6-digit HS code, used on India's Shipping Bill (ICEGATE portal).

Section 3 — Mining & Processing
Mine to Ship — 6 Steps of Indian Feldspar Production
1. Geological Survey
GSI maps pegmatite veins via remote sensing, geochemical sampling, and test trenching.
2. Open-Pit Extraction
95%+ open-pit quarrying. Overburden removed; pegmatite blasted and trucked to crusher.
3. Crushing & Grinding
Jaw crushers → ball mills / Raymond mills → 80M to 500M mesh. Air classifiers control D50/D90.
4. Magnetic Separation
Wet LIMS/HIMS removes iron minerals → Fe₂O₃ <0.10–0.15% std; <0.06% premium grade.
5. XRF Quality Testing
Full oxide profile: SiO₂, Al₂O₃, K₂O, Na₂O, Fe₂O₃, TiO₂, CaO, LOI, whiteness, particle size.
6. Pack & Export
25 kg HDPE or 1 MT jumbo bags. FCL containers to Mundra, JNPT, Kandla, Chennai, Kolkata.
