i found a black and kinda sparkly rock in my back yard, and i have no idea what it is! although i looked it up and found some answers to my questions. someone said it might be a moon rock or something, but, i'm thinkin' how the heck would moon rock get buried in my back yard? unless someone buried it on purpose... you see my house is REALLY, REALLY old! like my house is so old the garage was built for a carriage! so i'm thinkin' maybe a LONG time ago someone buried it there so tell me what you think of my idea.

No, gypsum is not magnetic. It does not have magnetic properties because it does not contain any elements that exhibit magnetic behavior.
No, kyanite is not magnetic. It is a naturally occurring mineral that does not possess magnetic properties.
Magnetite is the most powerful naturally occurring magnetic rock. It can attract and repel other magnetic materials, making it one of the most magnetic minerals in nature.
Yes, lodestones are naturally occurring magnetic rocks that have the property of attracting iron. They are commonly used in compasses and navigation due to their magnetic properties.
Yes, magnetic minerals occur naturally in the Earth's crust. These minerals can be found in various forms, such as magnetite, lodestone, and hematite, and possess magnetic properties due to their composition of iron and other elements.
The naturally magnetic stone found in caves is called lodestone. Lodestone is a type of magnetite that has the ability to attract iron.
Magnetite is a naturally occurring magnetic stone. It contains iron oxide and is known for its magnetic properties, allowing it to attract iron objects. Magnetite is commonly found in igneous and metamorphic rocks.
No, gypsum is not magnetic. It does not have magnetic properties because it does not contain any elements that exhibit magnetic behavior.
Lodestone is another term for magnetite, a naturally magnetic iron oxide mineral.
Dolerite is not naturally magnetic. It does not possess magnetic properties on its own.
No, kyanite is not magnetic. It is a naturally occurring mineral that does not possess magnetic properties.
Lodestone, also known as loadstone is a naturally magnetized piece of the mineral magnetite. They are naturally occurring magnets, that attract pieces of iron. Ancient people first discovered the property of magnetism in lodestone. Pieces of lodestone, suspended so they could turn, were the first magnetic compasses. Lodestone is one of only two minerals that is found naturally magnetized; the other, pyrrhotite, is only weakly magnetic.

Yes. Not all metals are naturally magnetic.
Yes, lodestone is a naturally occurring mineral called magnetite, which is a type of iron ore that exhibits magnetic properties. Lodestone has been used since ancient times for navigation and as a natural magnet.
Iron, cobalt, and nickel are the elements that are naturally magnetic at room temperature.
