Brigitte:

I agree that there can be other core substances in wands.  But I am sure Hermione got her wand from Ollivander, being as she is a muggle and doesn't know of other wizarding places to buy one yet.  And at Ollivander's they only use three types.  In the PS, US edition pages 83-84 " Every Ollivander wand has a core of a poweful magical substance, Mr. Potter. We use unicorn hairs, phoenix tail feathers and the heartstrings of dragons."  So Hermione's wand has one of the three substances above.
