Magnetite is an oxide of iron which occurs in igneous rocks, and in veins and replacement deposits; it is one of the most important ores of iron.
It usually occurs as a coarse, granular mass of black octahedral crystals, and produces a black streak.
Magnetite is permanently magnetic, and was the first magnetic material to be discovered, known then as lodestone.
No. Magnetite is the compound iron II, III oxide, Fe3O4

what elements do pyrite and magnetite habe in common
No, it is an oxide.
The iron oxide with the formula F3O4, called iron (II,III) oxide, is known as magnetite. There are also iron (II) oxide, FeO, and iron (III) oxide, Fe2O3, but they are not magnetite.

No. Magnet is aword for apiece of metal that has been charged with magnetic properties, Magnetite is a mineral.
Magnetite is an extremely rare metal (rock) and can take 459,000 to 23,000,000 years to form.

Magnetite is metal, so the compass would be messed up and not useful at all.
The melting point of magnetite (Fe3O4) is 1538 Celsius. Source: CRC Handbook of metal etchants

Sailors could use a lodestone for navigating in sea travel. They discovered that when they suspended a piece of magnetite from a thread, the metal would point in a north-south direction.
