Walter Minder (August 6, 1905 – April 1, 1992) was a Swiss mineralogist and chemist. He together with Alice Leigh-Smith announced the discovery of element 85 (now called astatine) in 1940 and 1942. He proposed the name helvetium in 1940 and anglohelvetium in 1942 for the new element. Later it was proven that in fact he had not discovered element 85.
