no it is not because

Electrons in orbit around an atomic nucleus usually come in pairs, having opposite spin and hence having magnetic poles pointing in opposite directions, resulting in no net magnetism for the atom. Elemental iron has unpaired electrons making it magnetic. When the iron combines with sulphur, electrons from the iron atoms pair with those of sulphur atoms.
