Drury Nunatak

Drury Nunatak (69°14′S 156°58′E) is a bare, black, isolated nunatak standing up boldly from the ice at the head of Lauritzen Bay, 1.5 nautical miles (3 km) northwest of Reynolds Peak. The feature was observed and charted on February 20, 1959 by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (Magga Dan) led by Phillip Law, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for Alan Campbell-Drury, Photographic Officer of the Antarctic Division who accompanied this expedition.[1]
