Mount Dummett

Mount Dummett (73°11′S 64°1′E) is an elongated mountain 11 nautical miles (20 km) east of Mount McCauley in the southern Prince Charles Mountains. It was plotted from air photos taken by Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) in 1956, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for R.B. Dummett, formerly Managing Director of BP Australia, in recognition of the valuable assistance given to ANARE by the company.[1]
