Oct 26, 2017 at 3:22 comment added John @Pont without knowing the mineral I couldn't say, I have has success with it in paleontological samples, but we were not looking for magnetics we just had an issue with metal contaminants, but embedding the sample may be the answer, there are a far larger variety of castable solids than adhesives, even furnace mortar or fireable clay may work.

Oct 25, 2017 at 16:20 comment added Pont @John To embed in glass you have to melt the glass, which will presumably heat the sample enough to erase the magnetism that Galya's trying to measure.

Oct 25, 2017 at 16:02 comment added Pont It would be helpful if you could add some quantitative detail: how big are your samples? How magnetic are they? What's the maximum remanence you can accept for the glue?
Oct 25, 2017 at 15:07 comment added John not many companies are going to test their epoxies for magnetic properties you may just have to experiment. You might try embedding them in glass.
