@Tan Dafydd actually entered a discussion point, more or less confirming my entry.
Have a good day, Chris.

Hi Dafydd Roberts, thanks for your answer. Trouble is, the importer provided their own translation---simply as: Frozen Beef Cuts. I think in the end, for us to know they need to send us a photo. Your answer, the only one I guess is the best. So thank you. I am closing this. Bonne journée.
Dafydd Roberts Nov 26, 2014:
I would be very careful about this - traditionally chutes = rognures = trimmings in many industries, that is parts cut off during processing. This is very different from scrapings. My own feeling is that this is "fore-quarter trimmings", a recognised commodity for which you will find plenty of evidence on the web.

I found Chutes de viande=bone scrapings so this must then be BONE SCRAPINGS OF BEEF categorized under Minerai de viande. Merci
