Pluto is thought to be made of mostly ice. It probably also has a small rocky core which might contain some metals. The ice on the surface of Pluto is made of frozen nitrogen, methane and carbon monoxide.The ice covering Pluto reflects a lot of sunlight making it appear brighter than it would if it had been covered with a darker rocky material. 1  Javascript must be enabled to use Cool Cosmos.t probably also has a small rocky core which might contain some metals.

Lava. Category: Lava is made up of crystals, volcanic glass, and bubbles (volcanic gases). As magma gets closer to the surface and cools, it begins to crystallize minerals like olivine and form bubbles of volcanic gases. When lava erupts it is made up of a slush of crystals, liquid, and bubbles.The liquid freezes to form volcanic glass. Chemically lava is made of the elements silicon, oxygen, aluminum, iron, magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and titanium (plus other elements in very small concentrations.Have a look at the background information in Minerals, Magma, and Volcanic Rocks.he liquid freezes to form volcanic glass.
