Basalt is on of the many rocks that is black, obsidian (a volcanic glass) is another.
Assuming there is no Earth magnetic field, and no other significant magnetic fields, they will not allign in any preferred direction.
Electric currents circulate in the interior of the Earth, and these create an magnetic field, with a north pole and a south pole. But not necessarily aligned with the geographic (spin) poles. If a rock which contains ferric particles is cooling, then those ferric domains will assume the direction of the Earth's magnetic field at the time the parent rock passed through that minerals Curie point. It will contain some 'fossil' magnetism.

A common mineral present in magnetic rocks is magnetite (Fe3O4). It is a natural magnetic mineral that is attracted to magnets, giving the rock its magnetic properties. Magnetite is abundant in many igneous and metamorphic rocks, and is often found in beach sands and black sands.
Lodestone is a rock that has magnetic properties.
Earths magnetic orientation is locked into the rock when the rock cools
Magnetic Earth rocks are those that contain magnetite.
igneous is black and smooth metamorphic is magnetic and sedimentary is used as cement
the rock's magnetic latitude at the time that it formed
Lodestone is a magnetic rock that is largely composed of the mineral magnetite.
Magnetic rock is called Lodestone.
Magnetic rock is called Lodestone.
