Name:
Named in honor of George Vaux, Jr. (18 December 1863, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - 24 October 1927, Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, USA), attorney, photographer, and mineral collector of Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. He was nephew of mineral collector William S. Vaux (1811-1882). His collection, that reached about 10,000 specimens of 850 species, went to Bryn Mawr College after his death.
A secondary mineral derived from the alteration of apatite.

Compare also the higher hydrate paravauxite and its dimorph metavauxite.
Ferrivauxite is an oxidized equivalent of vauxite.
