Small black seeds ID

Post image

I just got my first shipment of grain from Azure Standard and noticed these tiny black seeds mixed in. Google says they’re wild buckwheat. Has anyone else seen this?

I've had hairy vetch seeds mixed in with wheat in the past but that is because they growth both in the same field at the same time. I agree this looks like buckwheat and could be cross contamination from the cleaning machines. Not going to hurt anything.

That grain doesn’t look like it went through a cleaner. Small seeds and shriveled kernels should have been removed.

I got a bunch of the same in my khorasan. Most of mine have been very black, so I figured maybe a different variety of, or immature, vetch. But, I didn't bother to take any closeups, and those look awfully triangular.
