Basal plane resistivity of expanded graphite was studied under simultaneous influence of hydrostatic pressure up to 1.8 GPa and magnetic field 0.8 T in the 77-300 K temperature region. Magnetic field induces negative magnetoresistance in the sample within all temperature and pressure range studied. A change in resistivity of the sample under maximum pressure reaches 80%. Significant change in resistivity dependence on temperature under the pressure of 0.6 GPa suggests for ordering transition in the sample studied. Negative magnetoresistance in the graphite reaches about 15% at 0.6 GPa. Magnetic field acts in the same way as pressure and potentiates the transition formation and further magnetoresistance dynamics. The effects observed are mostly of elastic character according to resistivity of the unloaded sample.
