    Magnets

    Is an earth magnet any different than, say, a magnet off of a speaker?

    No, both of them collect dust not silver or gold or any precious metal. I believe your in the wrong forum.

    Ceramic and neodymium magnets each have different benefits. Ceramic magnets are easy to magnetize. They are very resistant to corrosion and generally do not need extra coatings for corrosion protection. They are resistant to demagnetization by outside fields. They are stronger than natural magnets, though many other types of magnet are stronger than them. They are relatively inexpensive. Neodymium magnets are the most powerful of all permanent magnets. A neodymium magnet can lift more than any other type of magnet of the same size. They are extremely resistant to demagnetization by external magnetic fields.

    I agree with that. A word of warning. When putting two of these together do not let your finger get in the middle.

    I once picked up a lobster the wrong way. Felt about the same!!!
