Explanation:

Atoms easily align in a magnetic field. Atoms have charges such as proton(+), neutron and electron(-), these makes them notify magnetic fields. Lava that leaves the earth aligns itself with the earth magnetic field and when there is a change in the earth magnetic field it affects the configuration of these minerals in the rocks.
