Probably a heterogeneous mixture.

Explanation:

If two or more substances are combined together physically (as in no chemical reaction occurs), they form a mixture.

There are two classes of mixtures:

  • A homogeneous mixture is one in which the components are evenly dispersed throughout; it is also called a solution.

  • A heterogeneous mixture is one in which the components do NOT spread evenly throughout, and is often visibly so.

Since the composition is indefinite in a heterogeneous mixture, the answer to your question is a heterogeneous mixture.
