Is it a pure sand, something like in the river bed or seashore?
Then chances are that magnet should have attracted the iron dust and thus the sound. inspect it clearly under bright light.

Check for what V2 eagle has replied.

Same way some time the outrunner might touch the motor mount this lead to noise better remove motor from the mount and check.

I noticed carefully the sand particles are stuck between magnets and bearings.  :banghead: I checked everything the outrunner is not touching the mount.
