You have two choices to remove this dust. #1 a stronger magnet with a cloth or plastic bag strong enough to not be punctured. #2 very high powered compressed air or very fast moving water. I've never tried the water but moderately compressed air gets 80% or so off ordinary sized magnets. But keep in mind, the larger the particle the less effective the air is to remove it.

While I was watching an old mechanic drill some holes in my machinery, I was put out because he was making a mess, chips and powder flying everywhere. He didn't even have a cloth to protect anything. Well he finally put away his drill and taps. He turns around and opened a little drawer on his toolbox. He took out a little tiny plastic bag. They he took a magnet from the side of his toolbox and dropped it into the bag and Bryant to wipe up all the metal chards. It only took him ten seconds to clean up. That is when I realized I had just been served a lesson from an old mechanic. He turned around again, and over the garbage can attached to the side of his toolbox (which I had not before noticed), he opened and reached into the plastic baggie and took out the perfectly clean magnet. All the scraps then fell directly into the bin. Luckily I didn't say anything that I was thinking, such as, 'old man why are you making a mess'. That was not the last time I learned something from my elders.

when I was a kid, me and my friends used to wrap magnets with paper then dump the magnet into soil then we'll get those black thingies, the metal fillings then get filtered by moving the magnet underneath the paper which holds the fillings then put them inside a jar I remembered that we does it every day for a whole month and we filled half of a bottle with it (the bottle is a bit small so yea)

When cleaning it up put a bit of paper between the magnet and iron then once you find a place you want to store the iron. Bend the paper in half and pull the magnet off. It’ll then let all the fillings slide into the storage container.

To make it easier to remove fine magnetic stuff like iron filings, you use a plastic bag or something to separate the magnet from the iron filings. Then you don’t have to clean and you get 100% of everything that you collected

Use an acid or chemical reaction to dissolve the iron or make it no longer magnetic, this won't work if your magnet is chipped as it no longer has a coating to protect it, you could also use a heavy oxidizer to rust the iron to the point that it will wash away with vinegar
