Typically, asteroids are silicates (rocks) and water (in the form of ice), which is pretty much the same stuff that comets are made of, except that the big, beautiful comets are mostly water, and the asteroids are mostly rock. Asteroids may also have some metals and someday these may be commercially valuable.
