She is also mentioned in many other chapters, here are some verses
Behold! the angels said: "O mary! Allah hath chosen thee and purified thee- chosen thee above the women of all nations. (Chapter #3, Verse #42)
And mary the daughter of 'Imran, who guarded her chastity; and We breathed into (her body) of Our spirit; B]and she testified to the truth of the words of her Lord and of His Revelations, and was one of the devout (servants). (Chapter #66, Verse #12)
It talks about who Mary was, her moral character and her devotion to God. It talks about her conception of Christ, the birth of Christ and the way she handled people afterwards b/c in Islam Mary was not engaged to anyone so she was a single mother.
