this indicates that gold is much more dense than quartz and olivine
It indicates that gold has the highest specific gravity, weight, and density.
Olivine would weather faster than quartz
Following Goldich Dissolution Series (Or going backwards by Bowen's Reaction Series), olivine weathers before Quartz. Quartz has a framework silicate structure and olivine has a isolated silicate structure.

No they are not

Biotite and muscovite micas, quartz, magnetite, olivine, amphiboles, and feldspars.
None, you don't get quartz and olivine in the same igneous rock.
They were formed under different circumstances.
They would include olivine, quartz, the feldspars, and the micas.
