There are blocks of ice there too! (maybe from comets that have been captured)

The rings are probably debris from impacts between asteroids and the moons of Saturn with the possibility that some moons have been entirely torn apart by impacts or gravitational pull from the mother planet and other moons.

Are planetary rings solid?

Saturn's rings are made up of little rocks of a moon that never formed, because it was too close to the gravitation pull of Saturn. They are solid, in the sense that each of the little rocks do have mass, but, it's a great many little rocks, that form the rings. It's like a ring of small rocks, or pebbles, that surround Saturn. It's not like a phonograph record, or CD/DVD/Blu-ray that rotates around Saturn. It's like a whole bunch of small rocks travelling around Saturn in a circular orbit.
