The invention discloses a mineral filtering material and a preparation method thereof, and a filtering core obtained from the mineral filtering material, wherein the mineral filtering material comprises the following raw materials by weight: 9-24 parts of secondary quartzite, 3-8 parts of feldspar quartz sandstone, 2-5 parts of rhodochrosite, 20-40 parts of zeolite, 10-30 parts of active carbon particles, 5-20 parts of active carbon fibers and 20-40 parts of a binder, wherein the rhodochrosite is a mixture of iron rhodochrosite and zinc rhodochrosite according to a weight ratio of 1-3:2, and the zeolite is a mixture of phillipsite and analcime according to a weight ratio of 1-3:1. The invention further provides a preparation method of the filtering material and a filtering core prepared from the filtering material. According to the invention, the filtering core capable of stably releasing mineral substances beneficial to growth and development of infants is obtained by utilizing natural rock materials through reasonable matching, and is environmentally friendly, free of secondary pollution and free of heavy metal exceeding the standard, wherein the TDS of the water mineralized by the filtering core is kept at 10-40 mg / L.
