Name:
Name first proposed in 1973, based on relationship to other species of the Pumpellyite Group. Species approved in 2005.
Raphael Pumpelly [September 8, 1837 Owego, New York, USA – August 10, 1923 Newport, Rhode Island, USA] was an active mining consultant and was professor of Mining Science at Harvard University. He was appointed director of the New England branch of the United States Geological Survey in 1884.
