Yes, it is possible to extract iron from sand or from some rocks. To do so you have two really good options. You can use Black Sand or Iron Ore. First, let's concentrate on sand. Typically dark grey or blackish sand will have higher iron content than whiter sand. Dark brown sand doesn't mean there will be more iron than white sand.

Iron ores with lower iron content such as taconite are first processed to concentrate the iron level and drive off volatile impurities. The iron ore is dressed or crushed into 0.5-1 in. chunks, which increases surface area for reactions. Magnetic separation is used to remove some of the undesirable minerals or gangue in the crushed ore.
