Hi,
to common magnets, or very strong magnets?
I have a few different martian samples, and they are all
not attracted to the magnet. I know that
martians can have magnetism, but i thought it's so less
that you need very sensitive instruments?
Cheers,
Carsten.
Martian meteorites ARE attracted to magnets. Try a
piece of Dag 476, SAU 005 etc, they stick rather well
to magnets.
