A quartz is not a diamond. A quartz is a quartz.
Quartz is classified as a semi-precious stone. The value of it depends on many factors such as:
You will have to take it to a professional jeweller to get an exact value. It could be worth anything from $6 USD to $50 USD. Maybe a little more if it is attached to gold or silver jewellery.
As for pink diamonds, I am extremely doubtful you have one in your possession because they are EXTREMELY rare and are owned usually by billionaires or royal families. Pink diamonds can be worth between $7,000,000 USD and $80,000,000 USD.
It is most likely you have pink quartz (also known as rose quartz) rather than pink diamond.
the colors of quartz is clear, pink, purple, and green
It depends how much iron it has inside. Quartz can also be clear transparent, milky white, pink, yellow, and even purple.
This would depend upon a number of factors. Massive, or crystalline? Colorless, or colorful? Clear or opaque? Fractured or flawless? From the Swiss Alps, or from Arkansas? A buck a pound will get you good tumbling grade agate, but a well crystallized rose quartz specimen, or top grade rutilated quartz, or a nice Swiss smoky quartz crystal crowned with pink fluorite crystals... you can add two to four zeroes.
Quartz is found in all colors. Colorless, purple, yellow, smoky, and pink are the most common; blue, greens and bright reds are more unusual.
Feldspar is a 6 on the hardness level and diamond is the hardest t 10. Feldspar is not very heavy- about the weight of granite or quartz (the average rock)

No. A diamond is a diamond: quartz is quartz. Both have different chemical elements and different molecular structures.
The value of a diamond cannot be determined based on color alone.
There are many gems found in shades of pink, eg: "kunzite" variety of spodumene "morganite" variety of beryl "sapphire" variety of corundum rose quartz diamond Of all of these, I'd suggest that the most popular and durable pink gem would have to be morganite.
