Best Answer

Magnetic metals are whats known as 'Ferrous'. These metals contain enough iron content to become magnetic. Prime examples are Iron, Steel, Pig-Iron.
iron.

Further answer

Nickel, and cobalt are others. But the question is not very specific because it asks 'which metals'. Does this include steel, which is a mixture and is metallic?
