Hey Willem, I think there's been a historical mistake in your highlight. Your information about the Kluisberg Tower is largely correct, but the part about André Dumont and the 1901 drilling tower belongs to a different location.
The discovery of the first coal in the Belgian Kempen region by André Dumont took place on the night of August 1st to 2nd, 1901, in As (Limburg). The monument that commemorates this discovery there indeed refers to a historical drilling tower.
