Whether a substantial question of law arose regarding assessment of Fe content in exported iron ore fines was resolved by treating the dispute as factual. The tribunals consistent precedent and an SKM certificate testing samples on wet metric tonne basis (WMT) governed the Fe percentage, whereas a CRCL report using dry metric tonne basis (DMT) reflected moisture loss over delayed testing.
