Grains of sand would seem better. Or maybe even salt?

Only trouble is, some of the grains might split in transit...

Now, if instead of transporting X lumps of metal, you transported 
several bags and the contents of each individual bag represents one byte 
(say), then you have some hope in hell of making this work. (The 
difficulty then becomes reading the bags in the correct order.)

Seriously - has the author *heard* of steganography? There are much more 
plausible techniques available than this one! o_O
