Ely Nunatak

Ely Nunatak (72°8′S 66°30′E) is a small, dark-colored nunatak 4 nautical miles (7 km) north of Mount Izabelle in the Prince Charles Mountains of Antarctica. The position of the nunatak was fixed by intersection from geodetic survey stations in 1971. It was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for J.
