Best Answer

Presuming the staples are made from a magnetic metal (either Copper, Iron or Cobalt), you could use a magnet to remove the staples from the sand and salt mixture.

You can then add water to the remaining mixture, which will allow the salt to dissolve. You can then filter the solution to separate the sand from the salt solution.

You can then simply evaporate the water from the salt solution using heat, and you will be left with the salt!
