Looks like small yellow quartz crystals

Agreed, "druzy" quartz crystals

it's also very possible they could be dolomite or calcite crystals since the host rock appears to be a Dolostone or limestone. A drop of dillute hydrochloric acid should tell you pretty quickly if it is one of the carbonate minerals.
