Columbite is normally found in intrusive pegmatite and biotite and in alkalic granites. These ores are mined as a by-product of other metals since they are found in small deposits and are irregularly distributed. Large pyrochlore mines are found in the Brazilian states of Canada and large columbite deposits are found in Nigeria and Congo.

Biotite. Biotite or black mica is a member of the mica group within the sheet silicates. Its general formula is K(Mg,Fe) 3 (AlSi 3 O 10)(OH) 2.Biotite is usually a solid solution of several minerals, mostly Fe-rich annite, KFe 3 (AlSi 3 O 10)(OH) 2, and Mg-rich phlogopite, KMg 3 (AlSi 3 O 10)(OH) 2; the exact composition of a sample is variable and has to be determined through a thorough analysis.

[]Two rock types, the Ox Frame Andesite and the Biotite Quartz Diorite (BQD), are two of the seven hosts to mineralization at the mine. The andesite is a problem rock type that causes the mill throughput to slow down and there is concern that the geochemically similar BQD will also contribute to throughput issues.
