Heaps of whiteish lead shot balls in Shoalhaven. Mercury wont tend to be white, it will be shiny/silver color.

Here's a piccy...they're tiny
Slice one in half with a knife, probably bird shot or old pea sinkers for the larger ones.

That does not sound like the behaviour of a single grain, but of a particle made up of many fine grains.phantomnosepicker said:
A better photo (close-up) with something for scale would help. I'm not even sure which particles you are referring to in your photo.
