use the magnet to attract the iron filings.
after you got those out, drown the entire mixture in water and drain it through the wire gauze. this should separate out the sawdust (if it doesn’t, i’m sorry, you’ll have to figure out some other way). Then, stir to make sure the salt is dissolved. pour out the water part and let it evaporate. when the water evaporates, all that’s left is the salt.
As for the non-water part left, that’s the sand.
Hope that helps!
