Gornyye Inzhenery Rocks

The Gornyye Inzhenery Rocks are a group of rocks just south of Deildegasten Ridge in the Östliche Petermann Range of the Wohlthat Mountains of Antarctica. They were discovered and plotted from air photos by the Third German Antarctic Expedition, 1938–39, and were mapped from air photos and surveys by the Sixth Norwegian Antarctic Expedition, 1956–60. They were remapped by the Soviet Antarctic Expedition, 1960–61, and named "Skaly Gornykh Inzhenerov" (mining engineers' rocks).[1]
