Is sphalerite metallic or nonmetallic?
Yes, it is a silicate mineral."Feldspar is the mineral name given to a group of minerals distinguished by the presence of aluminum (Al) and the silica ion (SiO4) in their chemistry. This group includes aluminum silicates of soda (sodium oxide), potassium (potassium oxide), or lime (calcium oxide). Feldspar is the single most abundant mineral group on Earth."Read more at the link below.

Are quartz and feldspar examples of polymorphs?
No, they are examples of silicate minerals. However, quartz is the collective name for a bunch of SiO2-polymorphs, like tridymite, coesite, alpha-quartz and beta-quartz. Likewise, K-feldspar is the collective name for the KAlSi3O8-polymorphs microcline, orthoclase and sanidine. Polymorphs are chemically identical, but differ in the crystallographic structure. To confuse it, each polymorph mentioned above is also a mineral ...
