We evaluate the distribution function of mesoscopic fluctuations of orbital magnetic response in finite-size level-quantized metal particles and Aharonov-Bohm rings for temperatures smaller than the mean level spacing. We find a broad distribution with the reduced moments much larger than the mean. For strong spin-orbit interaction we find very long tails due to thermal activation of large effective moments of the electrons at the Fermi level.
