New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition

The New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (NZGSAE) describes a series of scientific explorations of the continent Antarctica. The expeditions were notably active in 1957-58 and again in 1958-59. The 1957-58 expedition went to the Ross Dependency[1] and named the Borchgrevink Glacier. The following year's expedition named the Mountaineer Range.

Additional journeys were undertaken throughout the 1960s, and one in 1969-70 visited the Scott Glacier and named Marble Peak and Surprise Spur.
