Yes, I spilled the spherules onto a piece of white paper and then placed a small magnet behind the paper. Turning it would create lots of different configurations. When I got one I liked, I placed it onto the scanner to photograph in super high resolution......the magnet was also useful for sweeping up any stragglers that fell off!

Does this arrangement actually involve a magnet?

It's my cosmic rain! I scanned this and magnified as high as I could go to see the detail. The spherules are really very small.....finer than the smallest grains of salt.
