Division 26Production of manganese

### Division 26—Production of manganese > Note: Saleable quality is explained in Part 2. 326 (1) The production of manganese is any of the following: (a) the physical and chemical transformation of manganese (Mn) ore into manganese sinter (Mn3O4) that has a concentration of manganese of at least 40%; (b) the physical and chemical transformation of either or both of manganese ore and manganese sinter into either or both of the following: (i) ferromanganese alloy that has a concentration of manganese of at least 67%; (ii) silicomanganese alloy that has a concentration of: (A) manganese of at least 60%; and (B) silicon (Si) of at least 12%. (2) The production of manganese is specified as an emissions‑intensive trade‑exposed activity. (3) The production of manganese is a highly emissions‑intensive activity. > Note: See Part 4. (4) For the production of manganese sinter, the basis for the issue of free carbon units is by a tonne of manganese sinter that: (a) has a concentration of manganese of at least 40%; and (b) is produced by, or as part of, carrying on the emissions‑intensive trade‑exposed activity; and (c) is of saleable quality. (5) For the production of ferromanganese alloy, the basis for the issue of free carbon units is by a tonne of ferromanganese alloy that: (a) has a concentration of manganese of at least 67%; and (b) is produced by carrying on the emissions‑intensive trade‑exposed activity; and (c) is of saleable quality. (6) For the production of silicomanganese alloy, the basis for the issue of free carbon units is by a tonne of silicomanganese alloy that: (a) has a concentration of manganese of at least 60%; and (b) has a concentration of silicon (Si) of at least 12%; and (c) is produced by carrying on the emissions‑intensive trade‑exposed activity; and (d) is of saleable quality.
