They brought back moon rocks to earth.
Moon rocks are very similar to earth rocks an they are not intrinsically magnetic.

I am answering my own question but there are 3000 minerals known to Earth.... if thats just how many rocks that are known to Earth than think about how many minerals that are not known to Earth.
20 different kinds of minerals make up 95% of earth's rocks.
After many years, as rocks are eroded, gases trapped in them will be released into the atmosphere so in a way rocks are "storage rooms" for gases just as our Earth is.

The rocks of Earth's crust are composed of minerals of many types, rather than being covered by a specific mineral.
Rocks were brought back to the Earth from the various Moon landings the Americans undertook. No other rocks from the Moon are on Earth. The Moon was formed from the Earth - so, if anything, there are Earth rocks on the Moon.
The kinds of rocks on earth are Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic.
