Insulator.
No, quartz is an insulator. * actually i disagree, quartz CAN conduct electricity, that is y they use them in radars, radios, and tv's. :)

Granite is an igneous composite of quartz, feldspar and plagioclase. None of these materials are good conductors of electricity. Quartz is similar to glass, both being silicon dioxide. Glass in an excellent insulator, and so is quartz. Feldspar is also an excellent insulator. So is plagioclase. So, is granite a good conductor of electricity? Nope. That said, quartz is also a piezoelectric material. If a charge is applied to a quartz crystal, the crystal bends/twists, or otherwise moves. Also, if the crystal is struck, bent, twisted or otherwise moved, it develops a static charge that will quickly dissipate. The random arrangement of crystals in granite make harvesting these charges impossible. Granite was selected by the pyramid engineers for its strength, not piezoelectric properties of the quartz it contains.
The plural of quartz is quartz or quartzes.
