The Earth's mantle is primarily composed of silicate minerals rich in magnesium and iron. The dominant mineral types include olivine, pyroxenes, and garnet, with olivine being the most abundant at the upper mantle. The mantle also contains other minerals like peridotite and eclogite, which can form under high-pressure conditions. Overall, these minerals contribute to the mantle's properties, including its ability to flow slowly over geological time.
