Hatert et al. (2002) (on delvauxite): "In 1793, Jean-Baptiste Dumont, father of André Dumont, collected a brownish mineral on the dumps of an old galena mine at Berneau. The mineral was first analysed by J. Delvaux de Fenffe (1782-1863), a professor at the University of Liège. Dumont named the species after Delvaux."
