No.. you dont have grands of sand, if you mean grain....

Let's say for the present queston it is a medium-grained sand averaging about 0.2 mm (0.02 cm) in diameter. Assuming the grain is an approximate sphere, the volume is about 5 x 10^-6 cubic cm. The density is 2.65 g/cubic cm.

2.65 * 5*10^-6 = 13 * 10^-6 g, or 13 micrograms.

do it yourself to make sure I didn't make any conversion or other errors.
