Igneous rock is consistently a compound - a mixture of elements. Although there are variations in composition, igneous rock is usually made up of roughly half oxygen, roughly one quarter silicon, and lesser, but significant, quantities of aluminum, calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium., with a sprinkling of other elements.
