The Earth's core consists of two parts. A solid inner core made mostly of iron and some nickel, and an outer core made of liquid iron, nickel and some other elements. Surrounding the core is mantle. Mantle consists mostly of silicon based rocks, and magnesium and iron in greater quantities than found on the Earth's surface (the crust).

The core is made up of two parts: Solid inner core ( believed to be made of iron (80%) and nickel and some other light elements , other elements are either too rare or tend to bind to lighter elements), the second part is a liquid outer core that surrounds the inner core and is believed to be made of a mixture of iron and nickel and other lighter elements.

It is also believed that the core may hold other elements such as sulfur and oxygen.
