What elements are in the Moho?

The Moho is between the mantle and crust, but I don't know what elements are in the Moho.

The Moho (Mohorovicic discontinuity) contains no elements. It is the boundary between the crust and the mantle. The boundary itself has no mass or size. It's just a surface where 2 masses come together.

There are no elements in the Moho. It is not a place, it is a change in lithology (I think from the crust to the mantle). What you are asking is like asking "Who lives at the boundary between the United States and Canada?" No one, it is a boundary.
