I don't think that's a meaningful distinction. Many effects in classical physics are just previously poorly understood quantum effects. The distinction has more to do with when they were discovered than what causes them. Electricity is a good example. A large reason why electrons act collectively the way they do is a direct consequence of the pauli exclusion principle.

But so far there's no evidence to suggest the brain uses quantum effects discovered/verified fairly recently. The "common" properties of electricity and chemistry where fairly well known and modelled well by 1900.
