Brass flakes in coolant tank M112

I was looking in the coolant tank on a C320 (2003) looking for signs of oil and noticed a cluster of small brass flakes in the bottom.
Has anyone seen this before?
I'm thinking it could be a sleeve bearing starting to fail in the water pump. What else could it be?
Car runs fine...temps. perfect....no noise from the pump, yet!...and no oil in the coolant.
Thanks for the input.
The radiator in this car is a Behr.
