For those that think they have a meteorite look here.

Even stoney meteorites have small grains of native iron trapped in them so with one of these new neodymium magnets...very strong...it may be weakly attracted to that type of magnet.

I have since determined those to be slag and other junk, however I have found a few of what I believe are chondrites, they do stick to a magnet.

If you see even tiny round bubbles, particularly spherical shapes, you likely have a bit of slag, not a meteorite, even if weakly attracted to a magnet. Melting during the generation of slag generates gases and magnetizes bits of iron and iron oxide present in the slag. Best to have an expert examine any suspected samples!
