Gaara is a complicated case, because even without shukaku he had the genetic disposition for magnetic style anyways from being the son of Rasa. You could argue that that doesn't make sense because his siblings don't have it, but at the same time Rasa's wife probably didn't have magnet style so the deck got shuffled out of their favour. Gaara also could have simply become more accustomed to the jutsu over time, and we know that post extraction their is a still connection, as gaara was able to actually grab shukaku's chakra and grab him out of obito.

Sand isn't composed of metals though...
