They are all minerals which contain iron.
some of our samples of pyrite are paramagnetic
Non metallic minerals include quartz, mica, calcite, and feldspar. Metallic minerals include pyrite, hematite, magnetite, galena, chalcopyrite, iron, and copper.
Diamond, graphite, quartz, topaz, calcite, fluorite, dolomite, magnetite, hematite, pyrite...
Pyrite is harder, heavier, and exhibits a conchoidal fracture as opposed to chalcopyrite's brittle fracture. Chalcopyrite also contains copper whereas pyrite does not.
When a rock with a portruding edge that is less than ninety degrees in angle is struck on that edge and produces a conical shaped chip or "flake", leaving behind a concave flake scar where the material was removed from the rock, that is a conchoidal mineral.

what elements do pyrite and magnetite habe in common
There are a wide variety of metallic resources. These include chalcopyrite, gold, hematite, molybdenite, native copper, as well as pyrite.

The primary mineral would be... hematite. Many other minerals could be present, to one degree or another, including magnetite, pyrite, quartz, etc.
Pyrite is harder, heavier, and exhibits a conchoidal fracture as opposed to chalcopyrite's brittle fracture. Chalcopyrite also contains copper whereas pyrite does not.
They are extracted from the earth as ores. Some commercially valuable ore minerals are magnetite and hematite for iron production, Sphalerite for zinc production, and chalcopyrite (not to be confused with pyrite, it's pretty much useless) for copper. There are many other ore minerals out there, I've only listed a few.
The difference between the iron in magnetite and hematite is the charge. Hematite has all 3+ iron ( the iron when make the mineral loses 3 electrons) and magnetite has some 2+ iron (it only loses 2 electrons).
The term "iron ore" is quite general, and can be applied to a number of different minerals, like hematite, magnetite, goethite, or pyrite.
galena, pyrite, and hematite all happen to be distinct in their metallic luster.
Probably the most common ore of iron is hematite, which is predominantly Fe2O3. Other iron minerals are magnetite, which predominantly has the chemical formula Fe3O4 (sometimes written as FeO.Fe2O3), and pyrite, which predominantly has the chemical formula FeS2.
