This is a superb pocket of cuprosklodowskite crystals in matrix, a rare uranium mineral species known at its best from this particular locality. Large pieces like this, showing a complete vug, are highly desired and increasingly hard to obtain (though mining still continues; the heyday here is now long past). The sheer color saturation of these crystals is unearthly.
