No, quartz is a Silicate mineral.
------edit by someone named koca-----
i'm sorry to edit but it's wrooong, quarts is both a silicate mineral and a polymer, the two are not mutually exclusive
polymers are normally associated with plastics, but any chemical structure formed by the repetition of a simpler smaller structure called monomer (which in the case of quarts is silicate tetrahedrons) is a polymer

What is the molecule diagram for quartz?
The molecular structure of quartz is composed of silicon dioxide (SiO2) arranged in a continuous network of tetrahedra, with each silicon atom bonded to four oxygen atoms. The structure is characterized by a repeating pattern of alternating silicon and oxygen atoms, forming a three-dimensional framework. The diagram typically shows silicon atoms in the center of tetrahedra, with oxygen atoms at the corners.
