Looks like quartz crystals. They even have a light purplish tint to them like amethyst does.

Nice find:icon_thumright:, if you want to clean it up good use super iron out (powder kind only), stuff works wonders on quartz.

As smokey says its quartz, part of a quartz vug specifically. Vugs are cavities inside a host rock or material. Often in quartz materials crystals can be formed like your specimen. Nice piece.
