I’m not a physicist, but I’m pretty sure 64kg of 80% enriched uranium is more than the critical mass.
Tbh, maybe that’s fine. Take possession of uranium, instantly teleport back to mediaeval Europe - preferably into the middle of a major court - uranium goes prompt critical and irradiates most of the nobility. They are already a bunch of inbreds, what’s a bit more genetic damage?

Criticality is more about the shape than the total mass
