i found a black and kinda sparkly rock in my back yard, and i have no idea what it is! although i looked it up and found some answers to my questions. someone said it might be a moon rock or something, but, i'm thinkin' how the heck would moon rock get buried in my back yard? unless someone buried it on purpose... you see my house is REALLY, REALLY old! like my house is so old the garage was built for a carriage! so i'm thinkin' maybe a LONG time ago someone buried it there so tell me what you think of my idea.

Is gypsum magnetic?
no, gypsum is neutral since it is a naturally occurring stone with no minerals
Is limestone magnetic?
No, the limestone is not magnetic due to the magnetic fields in the stone itself.
Do magnetic minerals occur naturally?
Yes
What element like iron and nickel is naturally magnetic?
Cobalt
Which mineral would react to iron filling's- magnetite or graphite?
Magnetite- it is naturally magnetic. Graphite is carbon- non magnetic
Is gypsum magnetic?
no, gypsum is neutral since it is a naturally occurring stone with no minerals
Which stone is a naturally occurring magnet?

What is a naturally magnetic material?
magnetite
What stone is naturally a magnet?
Lodestone, also known as loadstone is a naturally magnetized piece of the mineral magnetite. They are naturally occurring magnets, that attract pieces of iron. Ancient people first discovered the property of magnetism in lodestone. Pieces of lodestone, suspended so they could turn, were the first magnetic compasses. Lodestone is one of only two minerals that is found naturally magnetized; the other, pyrrhotite, is only weakly magnetic.
Is limestone magnetic?
No, the limestone is not magnetic due to the magnetic fields in the stone itself.
Is gold metal but non-magnetic?
Yes. Not all metals are naturally magnetic.
Do magnetic minerals occur naturally?
Yes
Is magnetic minerals occur naturally?
Yes
What was the first magnetic material discovered?
Lodestone or magnetite, a naturally magnetic iron ore.
