How can the mineral quartz be an igneous rock?

Quartz can be an igneous rock when it forms from the cooling and solidification of molten rock deep within the Earth's crust. During this process, silica-rich magma cools and crystallizes to form quartz. As the magma cools slowly, quartz crystals have time to grow and develop, leading to the formation of igneous rocks containing quartz, such as granite.
