Ejin or Éjìnà (Mongolian: ᠡᠵᠡᠨᠡ ᠬᠣᠰᠢᠭᠤ Ejen-e qosiɣu; simplified Chinese: 额济纳; traditional Chinese: 額濟納; pinyin: Éjǐnà) is a banner of Inner Mongolia, China. It is under the administration of Alxa League. Its seat is located at Dalainhob Town (达拉呼布镇).
Ejin Banner is the westernmost banner of Inner Mongolia. It is located in the Gobi Desert and borders on Mongolia in the north, Gansu Province in the southwest, and Alxa Right Banner in the southeast.
Ejin Banner takes its name from the Ejin River, also known as Ruo Shui, which flows from the Qilian Mountains of Gansu, and whose two distributaries terminate in Juyan Lake Basin within Ejin banner. Most of the banner's population resides in this river's valley.
Ejin Banner is served by the Jiayuguan-Ceke and the Linhe-Ceke Railways, which are primarily used to haul coal, which is trucked from Nariin Sukhait mining complex (Ovoot Tolgoi) in Mongolia by truck to Ceke, and is loaded on trains at the coal terminals there.
There is also a railway south to both sites (northern and southern) of Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, which are also located within Ejin Banner.
