Micronized powder feels cold, why?

Quoting from this:

"You can't imagine what it's like to stare at a 500-pound barrel of color, like green. It's so fine that it feels and acts like a liquid. You put your hand in there and it's cold -- it's a very strange substance."

Why would a very fine powder feel cold?

I find dlzc's theory the most plausible so far.
