You obtained that piece from me. I'm fairly sure that your guess about uranyl is correct; I didn't mention uranium in the description because a while ago eBay pulled one of my similar auctions, apparently because somebody complained or some idiot at eBay noticed it and assumed it was highly radioactive and illegal to ship. I griped until I was blue in the face and eventually got someone at eBay to admit I was right, but they still left my listings downrated for 90 days because I had put a "forbidden" item up for sale. Meanwhile people sell fluorescent glass items with URANIUM in all caps in the listing titles and nothing happens...
I think uranyl-bearing water flows through the crystallizing, sort-of-stalactitic cacite and gets concentrated at the tips of the branches, where it can't go any farther. Quite a few Mexican localities have uranyl-doped fluorescents, most notably the classic adamites at the Ojuela Mine, my favorite locality; I hope to travel there some day, get down on my hands and knees, kiss the ground and say "Gracias."
Hey, Henry, where were those quartz crystals from?
