We determine the localization threshold in a partially filled and orbitally degenerate model of correlated electrons. Particular emphasis is put on a non-integer band filling, when the system decomposes into the localized and the itinerant subsystems; this situation is described by an effective s-d model. A simultaneous transition to the ferromagnetic state is discussed as driven by the Hund's rule coupling. Dependence of the quasiparticle mass on the spin direction appears naturally in the ferromagnetic phase and is attributed to the electron correlation effects, as is also a metamagnetic transition in an applied field. Although the main results have been obtained within the saddle point slave-boson approach, their qualitative features are discussed in general terms, i.e. as a transition from quantum-mechanical indistinguishability of particles to the two-component situation. A comparison with the situation for the orbitally nondegenerate band is also briefly mentioned.
