No.
The "only" magnets of any use readily available in nature is lodestones.
These are not very strong, but it does depend on their quality and size of course.
We can these days manufacture many different magnets for various purposes. Most of the man made magnets are stronger than what nature has to offer if we measure performance versus weight.
An artificial magnet today (or an array of them, but still easy to lift for a strong man) can easily lift many tons of iron.

∙ 11y agoAn artificial magnet is more effective than a natural magnet as a artificial magnet contains more magnetic properties than a natural magnet.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoSince magnetite is already magnetised when found in nature, it is called natural magnet. Eg: Lodestone
Magnets that are made by man are called artificial magnets.

What is the name of a man made magnet?
Man-made or Synthetic magnets are stronger than natural magnets and have many uses including alternative medicine (magnet therapy for Arthritis & Rheumatism), fridge/car magnets, they are also widely used in manufacturing. Made from a Nickle, Aluminium and cobalt (AlNiCo) compound they are magnetized by placing them in a machine which produces a strong electromagnetic field.
Why do you make artificial magnets?
The material found in nature, Magnetite, is not suitable for some of the needs of today. High density, rare earth magnets are made to very different requirements than any natural rock can cover.
What are cylindrical magnets?
A cylindrical magnet is an artificial magnet. It is made of iron, cobalt and nickel.
Do magnets have glue in them?
Magnets do not have any glue in them.
How can magnets repel other magnets?
forever
What are magnets and artificial magnets?
since magnets are all ready magnetised when found in nature called natural magnet artificial magnets that are made by man are called artificial magnets
What kinds of magnets are there?
Both artificial and natural magnets.

Can the strength of natural magnets be increased?
The strength of natural magnets be increased in various ways. Artificial magnetism can be induced so as to increase magnetism.
What are the differences between natural magnets and artificial magnets?
magnet which we get naturally from earth is called natural magnet e.g: lodestone.. while magnet made from magnetic material is called artificial magnet ...
What are the example of Artificial magnet?
The examples of artificial magnets are u shaped magnet or horse shoe magnets , dumb bell magnets , cylindrical magnets etc..
Are electro magnets sometimes called artificial magnets?
Yes, electromagnets itself is an artificial magnet.
What is artificial magnets?
artificial magnets are those where you make magnets which are mostly called as electromagnet which can be a magnet permanently or temporarily until you provide electricity
Why do you make artificial magnets?
The material found in nature, Magnetite, is not suitable for some of the needs of today. High density, rare earth magnets are made to very different requirements than any natural rock can cover.
How do magnets work naturally?
Natural magnets, such as lodestones, have a permanent and persistence magnetic field. These permanent magnets can also temporarily magnetize material such as iron, nickel, and cobalt.
What is loadstone?
loadstone is the natural form of magnets.
What is the name of nature magnet?
NATURAL MAGNETS
