If someone with the equipment will cut me a one inch long, quarter inch
square piece of either
an Odessa, Nantan, Gibeon, Sikhote Alin, or Campo, then I shall retire to my
laboratory and conduct
the requisite experiments to answer, hopefully, the question at hand.

Hi List,
I've read somewhere that it is possible for a meteorite to be
magnetic. Reading that made me believe someone has discovered such a
meteorite(s). Anyone out there on the List want to volunteer
information and/or maybe some pictures (or a link to some pictures)
of such an iron?
Hello Mike,
~92% of all meteorites are magnetic; all irons, all stony irons, and
nearly all stones are magnetic.
The only meteorites that are not magnetic would be the HED's (some of
these are slightly magentic), as well as Aubrites (though some of
these contain iron as well), planetary meteorites
Hi Michael,
Magnetic can mean more than one thing:
1.of or pertaining to a magnet or magnetism.
2.having the properties of a magnet.
3.capable of being magnetized or attracted by a magnet.
4.pertaining to the magnetic field of the earth: the magnetic equator.
5.exerting a
Hi Jason, List
Perhaps I used the wrong word when I wrote magnetic. What I was
looking for was info on meteorites that are magnets.
Sorry 'bout that
Mike

Hi Ken, Jerry, List,
I have seen pieces of man-made iron and pieces of magnetite become
slightly magnetic after being exposed to the supermagnet I use to
hunt with. Although, I have not seen either become what I would call
magnets afterwards. I have something a little different and am
I am new to the list. I've been reading the list for about a month now.
I just wanted to weigh in on the magnetic meteorite.
I am a retired Electronics Engineer, so this is somewhat in my field
of expertise.
From what I know, when you say all meteorites are magnetic, what you mean
is the

Bob, They are definitely the most magnetic rocks in our universe. Hope this
sheds light on some of the other forms you are after:
With all due respect Steve
You claimed that your new meteorite is very magnetic.
That's about as annoying as the oriented - orientated debate.
From what I understand Magnetic means having the properties of a magnet.
Does your new meteorite attract Iron like a magnet?
Probably not
Steve, you're fine. Generally with meteorites the more strongly magnetic
the specimen the more iron metal. There are some many uses of the word
magnetic in exactly the way you use it, in the Cambridge Encyclopedia of
Meteorites
that it sounds like you might be able to give Bob Evans some

How about an etching of Proud Tom for a refrigerator magnet!

Maybe they all saw The Magnetic Monster when they were kids. Anyone

I miss Bill Nye the science guy...now there was a magnetic personality!
I am spending the rest of the afternoon going through my NWA collection
to actually see how many will stick on the refrigerator door as true
magnets would.
