This may shock you, but all matter is magnetic just to varying degrees. So yes there is. Here are the 4 levels of magnetic property's if you will. and examples of the minerals that have them.
Ferromagnetism - a strong attraction to magnetic fields. examples would be Magnetite and Pyrrhotite.
Paramagnetism - a weak attraction to magnetic fields. Example would be Platinum,
Diamagnetism. , Bismuth Is the only mineral that is diamagnetic, meaning it is repelled from magnetic fields.
Magnetism. Only a variety of one mineral acts as a magnet, generating magnetic fields on its own. This mineral is Lodestone, the magnetic variety of Magnetite, which found in only a few deposits throughout the world. Although it is only weakly magnetic, its magnetism is definitely discernible.
A mineral called Magnetite, a shiny black material is naturally magnetic.
Magnetite is a mineral that is magnetic.

The following minerals have magnetic properties: Magnetite and hematite are ferromagnets. Ferrites and garnets are ferrimagnetic. Quartz, calcite, and mica are all magnetic. Although they have a small magnetic attraction, these minerals do not remain magnetic.
the minerals are iron, nickel and cobalt
Yes
Azurite is one of the two copper carbonate minerals found in nature (the other is malachite). It is found in a hydrated form. It would be remarkable if it possessed any magnetic properties, lacking as it does any of the ferro atoms.
Since some minerals are magnetic and some are not, that can be one of several criteria used to distinguish different minerals.
Assuming there is no Earth magnetic field, and no other significant magnetic fields, they will not allign in any preferred direction.

Obsidian is an igneous rock that technically is not composed of minerals. It is a natural glass.
Not necessarily. But it will contain one or more magnetic minerals.
