"Surprising" Phenomenon

When grapes are dried into raisins, the only changes they experience in their contents are sugar caramelization and water loss. So why do raisins have more iron per calorie than grapes do?

Objective

The correct answer will have to explain how raisins can have a higher iron-to-calories balance than grapes, despite seemingly having no iron added nor calories removed. The explanation may indicate that raisins are lower-calorie than grapes, or perhaps that the drying process somehow results in a higher iron content.
