1 brass sand = 4.528 Metric tones (tonnes)
That's because 1 brass = 100 cub ft sand.
In metric, 1 cubic meter (cum) = 1600 Kg sand.
1 cubft = 0.0283 cum
Therefore, 1 brass = 100 x 0.0283 x 1600 = 4528 Kg = 4.528 metric tones (or 'tonnes')
That's for dry sand. If it has been raining or the sand is taken from a wet shore, this increases, on average, to 5.09 tonne.
