Answer:

4. quartz

Step-by-step explanation:

A mineral is a naturally occurring, inorganic substance that has a crystalline structure. Both concrete and steel are not naturally occurring. They are man-made. Additionally, while coal is naturally occurring, it is a rock, and therefore does not have the needed crystalline structure.
