Not sure I understand your question. Anything that gets accidentally added to a sample substance is a contamination. As such, gunpowder can contaminate a blood sample. But it is unusual to handle gun Powder, so how gunpowder would get into a blood sample is beyond me.

Has anyone had blood in their urine because of Mirena?

Not directly. It might cause "spotting" - small amounts of blood from inside the womb that sometimes appears between periods and this might contaminate a urine sample (i.e. a false positive for haematuria - blood in the urine). A properly conducted mid-stream urine test should prevent contamination of the urine by uterine blood.
