Sanctions on Iran’s sale, supply or trade of metals such as aluminum and steel, as well as graphite, coal and certain software for “integrating industrial processes”

Tightened U.S. sanctions came into effect on July 1 that extended a ban on aluminum metal to cover raw and semi-finished metals as well. China and India have won waivers from any U.S. sanctions on their financial system related to trade with Iran because they have cut imports of Iranian oil.
