They are both mixtures.
Here's the full scientific report I had to do in year 7. Title: Magnetic Separation Aim: To separate iron filings from sand using a magnet. Equipment: Magnet, sand and iron filing mixture, plastic bowl Method: 1. Pour the mixture into the plastic bowl 2. Move the magnet slowly through the mixture Results: When the magnet was moved through the mixture, it picked up the iron filings but not the sand. Conclusion: In this experiment we demonstrated that a magnet can pick up iron filings in a sand and iron filing mixture through magnetism. The aim was achieved as we were able to separate the iron filings from the sand.

To separate a mixture of salt and sand, you can use the method of dissolving the salt in water and then filtering the sand out. If the mixture consists of iron filings instead of salt, you can use a magnet to attract and separate the iron filings from the sand. This method works since iron is magnetic while sand is not.
yes
Iron can be separated from sand using a (electro)magnet.
To separate a mixture of iron filings, sand, and camphor, you can use a magnet to attract the iron filings, leaving the sand and camphor behind. Then, you can dissolve the camphor in water as it is soluble, allowing the sand to settle at the bottom. Finally, you can filter out the sand to obtain separate components.
This can be done by the processs of magnetism. Holding amagent near the mixture will cause the iron filings to be attracted out of the sand.
A magnet can be used to quickly separate the iron paperclips from the mixture, as the paperclips are magnetic and will be attracted to the magnet. To separate the sand from the mixture, pouring the mixture through a sieve can help separate the larger sand particles from the smaller iron paperclips.
Remove the iron filings with a magnet. That will leave the sugar and sand left. Then use a fine sieve to remove the sand. Or if those particles are too much the same size, then add water to the mixture and then use a filter. The sand will stay behind on the filter. You now have to remove the water. You can do that by letting it evaporate.
First, place the sulfur, sand and iron filings in a plastic container. Next, use a magnet to remove the iron filings from the sulfur-sand mixture and surely,the iron filings will connect to the magnet, leaving the sulfur and sand behind.
Remove the salty water and desalinate by evaporation, leaving the salt crystals behind. Condense the evaporated water vapour back into a liquid (water). Pass a strong electromagnet repeatedly over the sand and iron (iron filings?) mixture until all the iron has been removed, leaving the sand grains behind.
