The invention discloses a surface double-coated lithium-enriched material and a preparation method thereof. The surface double-coated material is a composite material formed by sequentially coating the outer surface of a lithium-enriched material with a metal compound layer and a carbon layer, wherein the lithium-enriched material has a chemical formula of Li<1+>xMnyMzAwOr, M is at least one of Ni, Co, Al, Mg, Ti, Fe, Cu, Cr, Mo, Zr, Ru and Sn, and A is at least one of S, P, B and F; and x is more than 0 and less than or equal to 1, y is more than 0 and less than or equal to 1, z is more than or equal to 0 and less than 1, w is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 0.2, and r is more than or equal to 1.8 and less than or equal to 3. The preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing a soluble metal salt solution; soaking the lithium-enriched material in the solution, adding a precipitator, stirring, filtering, drying and heating; soaking the heated sample in a carbon source-contained solution for stirring, and drying; heating and carbonizing the dried sample at a protective atmosphere to obtain the surface double-coated lithium-enriched material. According to the surface double-coated lithium-enriched material, the stability and conductivity of the material structure can be improved, and the circulating performance and rate performance of the lithium-enriched material can be improved.
