The stuff the magnet picks up is apparently small metallic meteorites (and if I recall correctly they are usually spherical in shape)? Does anyone any further information on this, I'd really like to give it a try!

Not to sure about that, but I must say since we live on rain water out here
in the bush, I got a 20 000 lt tank sitting right outside my back door. There
might be a possibility some maybe sitting in the mesh filter on the inlet hole.
I'll have to get myself a magnet and test the theory.
