A few examples of sub fossils from local deposits that attract a magnet.
This Equus Skull easily attracted a small round rare earth magnet.
The two images below show me scraping the inside of a freshly cut bone after I had thoroughly cleaned it to remove any residual metal from the saw blade, I used a hard plastic scraper the inner bone material was found to be highly magnetic.
