Seem to be just rocks. What makes you think they are meteorites? Have you performed a test?

Last two look like chert. Not seeing any evidence of these being meteorites.

Rocks can have iron content that can make them magnetic.

Magnetism is not a good indicator of  something being a meteorite.

Meteorites are special, it is always necessary to examine it, if the inner structure fits.

Other stones could be magnetic, this is not an indicator at all. Could be, but many other stones are magnetic, too

I agree with the others, the shown ones are rocks and no meteorites.
