Ivory Tower (Antarctica)
Appearance
Ivory Tower (85°28′S 142°24′W / 85.467°S 142.400°W) is a small peak rising to about 800 metres (2,600 ft), 1.5 miles (2.4 km) east of Fadden Peak, between the Harold Byrd Mountains and the Bender Mountains in Antarctica. The peak was visited by a United States Antarctic Research Program – Arizona State University geological party, 1977–78, and was named because of its composition of nearly all white marble.[1]
