need help identifying stuff that appeared during re-x

Hi, i'd really appreciate any takes on what these little shapes i noticed while re-xing might be. Is it possible they're mini glass pieces? The heptane was pulled from a glass vessel holding the lye bark soup.

Are your deems supposed to be in there? Did you use salt? Have you already done freeze precip? It looks either like deems or salt.

One love


thanks so much for your reply. hadn't done freeze precip yet and yes i did use salt. i was giving the heptane a warm water bath in preparation for freeze precip when i noticed these. If it was deems it certainly should have melted..It could be salt i suppose but wouldn't the salt have long been dissolved? I still have the container from the picture sitting on the table because I'm suspicious of what i don't understand in it.
 
hmm i think you solved this mystery for me. thanks Voidmatrix ;)
