(Both above sentences avoid repeating "of" in the subordinate clause.) |
I'm sorry, but that is not correct. The word "comprised" does not mean the same thing as "composed of".
Use this sentence. It is correct. This is what a native speaker would say, and it is correct according to modern grammars.
"Lava is made of silica, the same material which sand and glass are composed of."
