Synthesizing magnetite

(1/2) > >>

gatewood:
I've become interested in being able to make magnets from scratch (without electricity), and turned to iron and iron oxides (such as hematite) to try and turn them into magnetite.

Anyone knows if there's a way to do that? Or how feasible is it?

I'm not asking that you solve the thing for me, just for general thoughts (ppl in forums tend to give better advice and insights than google does).

Personally, the best and easiest thing I've found, is to use magnetotactic bacteria, which you probably haven't even heard of.

Where did you read that this is a practical discovery, and not just an interesting theoretically?
