These are oxidized metal grains. The oxidation color is bluish and most
closely resembles blueberries, though I am somewhat color blind.

Any idea what this metal is? Could it be cobalt?

Cobalt is ferromagnetic, so unless it is fully oxidized, it would be
magnetic.

So it is not cobalt... no attraction to magnet...
