2-3" Magnetic Lodestone (Magnetite) - Utah

Lodestone is a naturally magnetized piece of the mineral magnetite. It is a naturally occurring magnet which can attract iron. The magnetic force of natural lodestone is fairly weak compared to most artificial magnets. These lodestones were collected from Southern Utah and are between 2" to 3" wide.
