Resistors are made of heavier elements though. And I remember something like everything wants to become iron (fuse if lighter, decay if heavier)

That said there might be enough energy (infinity!) for anything to be possible.

You get stable things heavier than iron, and they're more common than you'd expect. It's possible that they form in neutron star collisions, which are complete anarchy in atomic terms.
