Conservative and non conservative fields

Is magnetic field conservative or non- conservative field? I think that it should be conservative but not sure.

I believe that a practical definition of conservative field asks conservative of what? A conservative field conserves energy.

Yes I did mean energy!

If one can clearly define a potential energy due to the magnetic force, then the magnetic force field would be conservative.
