Earthquakes occur frequently. They create different types of waves that travel through the earth at a variety of speeds. Certain waves are also reflected and refracted by some materials. As a result it is possible to tell where boundaries are between two different types of materials. By knowing the speed the various waves travel through the various materials, it is also possible to know the density of various materials.
Geologists know the material ejected by volcanoes of various types.
The density in the center of the earth is the same as a mixture of iron and nickel.
Just above the center of the earth is heavy material, but is a guess!
