A powder mixture with chemical formula CeBa1.8Pb0.2Cu3Oy was prepared. The mixture was heated in free atmosphere, at temperatures 860 deg. C to 940 deg. C, for 24 to 72h. The samples were measured by X-Ray powder diffraction with CuKa radiation. Each sample was characterized with the help of the PDF and refined, using the Rietveld's ''Powder Profile Analysis''. The first sample (860 deg. C) was identified with the phases: Ba2CeBiO6, CuO and BaCuO2, while all the remaining samples (870 deg. C-940 deg. C) with the phases Ba2CePbO6, CuO and CeO2. The phases Ba2CeBiO6 and Ba2CePbO6 are the main phases with analogous chemical types, but different symmetry. The phase CuO is common in all the samples, while from the remaining phases the BaCuO2 appears only in the first sample and the CeO2 in all, except the first one. The quantity 0.2 of Pb is distributed in the Ba positions, substituting a part of these. The percentages of phases are about 82%, 10% and 8% for the first sample and for all the remaining about 85%, 8% and 7%, respectively with above serious.
