Yes a magnetic rock is called LodgeStone! When I was in fifth grade I did an experiment on LodgeStone with magnets. It worked with magnets
!
By using a magnetometre or by testing them with a fixed magnet. Magnetic rocks tend to be igneous so look in volcanic areas.
A list of magnetic rocks would include chromite, tantalite, ilmenite, and columbite.
On the ocean floor
Although Lodestone is a naturally occurring magnetic rock, not all magnetic rocks are known as lodestone, and it is only magnetized because of the magnetite mineral in it.
Many rocks have magnetic properties (are capable of being magnetized, are magnetic or are attracted by a magnet) derived from magnetic minerals in their composition like magnetite, hematite, and ilmenite. The most well known magnetic rock is the lodestone, which is comprised mainly of magnetite.
When rocks are formed, usually from lava flows, the magnetic orientation of them is set as they solidify. As these rocks are affected by continental drift and other factors such as earthquakes, the original magnetic orientation remains. Using the known strengths of the earth's magnetic field over time, it is possible to then tell where these rocks originally emerged.
They have the electromagnetic force in which two objects are attracted to one another in a specific field or range. It happens usually when the rocks contain iron which is the most important magnetic material.
No. Mainly rocks with a high content of iron. Rocks such as silica or calcium carbonate are not.

Moon rocks are very similar to earth rocks an they are not intrinsically magnetic.
yep
MOST rocks are nonmagnetic. Rocks with a very high iron content will be magnetic. One type of rock, known as lodestone, IS a magnet.
The orientation of a rocks magnetic field can tell you it's relative age.
