Actually neither term is correct. Tanzanite is a variety of the mineral Zoisite. Quartz and Diamond are minerals in their own right and there is absolutely no connection between the 3 of them. They all have unique physical and chemical properties. Anyone trying to sell "Tanzanite Quartz" is most likely selling Amethyst (Amethyst is the purple variety of Quartz) and anyone selling Tanzanite Diamond is simply being unscrupulous. There is no such thing. You might want to learn more about Tanzanite here on www.lapigems.com as they have extensive educational features.

It is the same as the jewelry industry selling brown diamonds!! lmao everyone knows Diamonds are judged by bring colorless, and I have a cheap diamond, that doesn't even look like a "brown diamond," It is a way of them creating the image that it is rare and wanted. they are crap, period not fall for it and as for the Ocean Tanzanite, the mines are running out of the nice AAA graded Tanzanite, JTV, trademarked the name, actually there is a ship of the same name. It is sub par if you like brown diamonds, do and by a green tanzanite and I have a bridge for sale, they must think we are stupid.. but we must be I have seen the brown diamond,I don't care what nice adjective they, JTV calls it It is a worthless diamond. period.
Tanzanite jewelry, karat for karat, is actually much cheaper than diamond jewelry, often by an order of magnitude. If a given diamond ring should cost $10,000, a similar Tanzanite ring may cost only $1000.

Quartz is silicon dioxide (sand). Diamond is an allotropic form of carbon.
It all depends on the quality. A 1 carat A-quality Tanzanite can cost a couple hundred dollars where a AAAA-quality Tanzanite can cost thousands of dollars. The same holds true for diamonds.
Diamond is a non-quartz gemstone.
