Google or wikipedia accumulator plants.

Since there is plant matter ( gourds etc... ) in your compost, then there will be minerals in your finished compost. Especially if what was put into it came from deep rooted plants like trees. All plants consist of some amount of minerals. Accumulator plants will of course have more.

Yup, most animal waste except for human waste is excellent fertilizer. My father has a small chicken coop which he beds with cedar shavings. Once a year he has me shovel it out into his empty garden and we till it in. The best animal waste would probably be horse manure. Of course horses aren't abundant and horse farmers probably won't give it to you for free. If you have time, maybe you can go poop hunting. :P lol
