If you state what something is made of, and it is made entirely and only of that substance which you have stated, then the definition of purity is satisfied. Therefore a pure substance can be made of anything, as long as it is made only of that thing. For example, a pile of garbage could be described as pure garbage as long as it contains only garbage and nothing else.
