Strange matter is composed of quarks, in a similar manner to how neutronium is composed of neutrons. It's theorized that if you compress neutronium enough the individual neutrons break down and their constituent quarks form strange matter. However, I'm right on the edge of my expertise with the neutronium article already so I don't want to embarass myself by trying to sound authoritative on this one. :)
