nickle ore is what keeps the islands in position. if a nickle ore is 3 blocks away from another nickle or they come to together. if you smelt nickle ore into nickle and then make nickle in a 2X2 square you get 2 magnetic orbs. with those ores you can make negitive and positive magnetic orbs which then will be made into defrent types of magnets. you can craft a magnetic campus which will be used to find more magnetic blocks (would be good to put beside spawn point)
