Iron in the inner core and some other components in the outer core.
"What we do know about the core -- that there is a solid inner core of pure iron the size of the Moon, an outer liquid core rich in iron the size of Mars, and an irregular boundary between the liquid core and the bottom of the rocky mantle -- comes mostly from studying how seismic waves travel through the earth.

The core of the Earth is made up of molten iron mixed with a little nickel.

The core of the Earth is predominantly Iron metal (Fe). It also has a significant amount of the element Nickel (Ni, about 4%) and a light element to make it less dense (about 10% by mass). This light element is either mostly oxygen or sulfur (most scientists believe it to be oxygen).
Hope I helped :).

liquid lava is the core of the earth... i remeber that because i always thought it would be something hard, sturdy... to support the other layers, but it is just the opposite.

magma, it's not called lava until after it breaks through the surface...
that was my original answer I did a quick search and it seems it's made out of mostly iron and nickel. Check out a couple sites with good diagrams.
