Iron in the Earth's crust is solid.
The melting point of iron is 1811 K, 1538 °C, 2800 °F.
The temperature of the crust increases with depth to around 200 °C (392 °F) to 400 °C (752 °F) at the boundary with the mantle below. As depth increases further, so does temperature and pressure.
About 2800 kilometers below the Earth, the temperature is high enough that the outer part of the Earth's core is molten metal, an iron and nickle mixture. That is about 2000 kilometers thick and then it appears to become solid again at the very center.
What else can I help you with?
Is the inner part of the earths crust hot melted rock?
No, the inner part of the Earth's crust is not hot melted rock. The inner core of the Earth is made up of solid iron and nickel, while the outer core is composed of liquid iron and nickel. The hot melted rock is found in the mantle layer beneath the crust.

The solid portion of the earth?
The solid portion of the Earth consists of the crust, mantle, and core. The crust is the outermost layer made of solid rock. Beneath the crust is the mantle, which is a semi-solid layer that flows slowly over time. The core is the innermost layer and is composed mostly of solid iron and nickel.
