The super large deposit of Nb, rare earth and iron in Bayan Obo is currently one of the mines with the most varieties of new minerals discovered in the world. The dolomite type ore with Nb and rare earth is the most widely distributed ore type in this area as well as it is with significant meanings to research its characteristics such as mineralogy. The dolomite type ore in East Mine of Bayan Obo is collected through field work as well as the petrographic identification and process mineralogy analysis are carried out. The results showed that the dolomite was distributed in subidiomorphic-xenomorphic granular form among fluorite, its particle size was uniform and generally 0.1~0.3 mm; the magnetite was mostly disseminated in subidiomorphic aggregation among fluorite and dolomite and its particle size was generally 0.3~1.0 mm. The main oxides of ore are CaO and MgO as well as the content of dolomite in this type of ore could reach 70%.
