  Dilepton production associated with minijets is calculated in
ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions using the first order approximation of
the dilepton fragmentation functions of quarks and gluons. The full QCD
evolution of the fragmentation functions is also studied. We find that the
dilepton pairs from the fragmentation of minijets are comparable to direct
Drell-Yan at $\sqrt{s}=200$ AGeV for small dilepton invariant mass $M\sim$ 1-2
GeV/c$^2$ while dominant over a large range of mass at $\sqrt{s}=6400$ AGeV.
