Am I damaging my build plate?

I printed the dino skull and the nefrititi bust with no issues. Then when I printed two rings that I sliced using the Slic3r PE software I'm getting little silver dots on the build plate where the part was built. They don't wash off with an alcohol wipe so I'm worried they might be slight damage to the build plate. I think the calibration is right and I'm using the default settings in Slic3r PE but want to make sure I'm not breaking anything before continuing.

Perfectly normal. They will go away with time, or flip the build plate to add heat and pressure to make it go away faster.

No problem. It was one of my first questions after printing too 🙂
