QUICK addition to the magnet discovery field... Permanent magnets can lose their force through many many things... Rare Earth Magnets on the other hand create their own Magnetic force, and dont need to be charged.

You throw a PM at the wall, it could very well lose it's magnetic force.

You throw a REM at the wall, it could break in half, you'd just have two REM's now.

Please don't place physically created things in the same category as geographical anomalies.
