Metals and other magnets are the only objects that are attracted to magnets.

However, many metals are NOT attracted to magnets. Copper, stainless steel, brass, gold, silver, zinc, and aluminum are a few metals that are NOT attracted to magnets.

The best way to discover if the object will be attracted to a magnet is to introduce it to a magnet.
