Gold and Silver only spawn in quartz chunks. The silver would look similar, just with a more gray/whitish texture instead of the gold/white.

The labor involved in clearing the vein is tedious! But oh I love that AU/AG 

Riddle me this.  Ive used the prospecting pick in sporadic places while exploring and have had a minuscule Gold reading but nothing about quartz. Actually, Ive never had a Quartzite reading appear on the prospecting pick readout and I've come across more quartz than any other mineral in the game. Got any crumbs for me? XD

I have a few crumbs   

Quartz doesn't show up at all because the devs coded it as such. It's such a plentiful mineral that spawns in huge quantities in all(?) materials, so dig down a few times and you'll eventually find some. Anytime I need quartz, and I don't have a close marking on the map, I will just dig straight down. If I don't find it on the first hole, moving 32 blocks in any direction for one or two more times will eventually get me some

And now ive just mined through a quartz vein and discovered amethyst crystals. That was awesome how purple dust and bits enveloped the space from where the block of quartz it was attached to disappeared. It's actually fairly exciting mining into all the different minerals and ores they have developed in this game. Much more thorough than other games.

There's quite a few crystal types you can find in quartz, as well as some other materials

Going off the top of my head, I wanna say it's Amythest, Quartz, Smokey Quartz, Rose Quartz, and Olivine as all the crystals you can find
